Actually what’s more important is the version of the OV5640 camera module itself. V1.1B of the camera has a hardware change that required a non-compatible software change in the kernel. Meaning our newer software probably only supports the more recent 1.1B OV5640.
Actually for the i.MX8 I believe it only ever supported the newer 1.1B and not the older 1.1A camera.
Also on another note for future continued mipi-csi support I’d recommend our partners e-con Systems: e-con Systems Inc.
They’re camera solutions have been proven to work on our hardware and software. Also I’ve been told they’re fairly responsive to questions.
