Capture in Mode 1

Is there a way programmatically, using the mipi camera driver, to capture images in Mode 1 (8112 x 3040) vs. the default of Mode 0 (4056 x 3040).

I know this is possible using the command line using ./arducamstill -t 5000 -m 1 -o image.jpg, but I would like to modify something like the provided capture.py file (in MIPI_Camera/RPI/python) to trigger this capture at the higher resolution

Hi,

In python code, please use fmt = camera.set_resolution(8112 x 3040) to change the resolution.

 

Thank you Bin, but when I set_resolution to 8112x3040 it throws these errors below.

My Pi gpu_mem is set to 256.

Have you perhaps seen this before that you might point me to the solution? I have not yet found it through search.

Thank you.

 

Please set the gpu_mem to 400

Thank you for the quick reply.

I changed gpu_mem to 400, but that (alone) did not fix the issue and I continued to get the same error.

I found I also had to increase the limit of the contiguous memory allocator. In /boot/cmdline.txt I added the option cma=400M. Then rebooted and it worked.

Thanks to this post.

I offer it here in case anyone else has this same issue.

Oh, Great to hear that. Thanks for your sharing.
