As it currently stands Open-CV and the newest 'Bullseye' OS release are not compatible. I have no doubt the teams at Open-CV are working furiously to rectify this. Until that compatibility is there I recommend using 'Buster' OS with Open-CV applications.

"libcamera-vid --datetime" will create a still image with a name based on the date/time. But neither "libcamera-vid --datetime" nor "libcamera-vid -o --datetime" will do the same thing with a video file. What's the correct syntax?
Hey mate, so | libcamera-still --datetime | does that still image with a name based on the date/time. I've just turned on my Raspberry Pi over here and after typing | libcamera-vid -h | it appears --datetime isn't an option for video. I'm sure that's just an oversight and it'll be updated by the Raspberry Pi Foundation soon. Until thats fixed you do have the option of creating a short Python script that will take your video and save it with a date time format. Give this guide a quick look through to see how exactly to do so - forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=192067 - Jump to our forums if you need any extra help.
With the new system there isn't a fantastic option just yet (but I am very sure some people are working furiously as I type to make it happen). If you use the older 'Buster' Raspberry Pi OS I would recommend using this one here - github.com/Billwilliams1952/PiCameraApp

Hi. When I try to enable camera it wants to reboot it. But after vnc viewer turns into a small black screen. And written “Cannot currently show desktop”. What can I do? And also I wanted to enable camera from the operating system. And I can’t see Camera option in Interfaces. I think it is related to last version. Can u help me please? What can I do? When it turns small black screen it is too difficult to fix it.
i have that issue before this, i just change another ribbon @papashirt for me that method its work. my friends also got that problem too, him just reinstall OS.
Heyya mate, Symbolic links are a whole new kettle of fish, seems to me though for it to work you need the old package to link to. With the new OS they have completely removed the RaspiStill/RaspiVid package (although you can still sudo install it to your OS).
This doesn't seem to work with the Rpi 3 B+. I get the Failed to import fd 19 error when using the libcamera-hello in Bullseye. Any idea what needs to be changed?
There seems to be some compatibility issues with the New Bullseye Camera Packages and Rpi 3 B+. I would highly recommend until they are fixed up to use the earlier 'Buster' Raspberry Pi OS. Check out these two guides for that - core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-high-quality-camera.html and core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/flash-buster-os-pi.html
Anyway to get simple capture snippet code in c++? For example with opencv like the good old days? It's an absolute nightmare to get this working with pi3B+, Bullseye and c++. I couldnt get it yet. Any help would be welcome.
I can't believe the Pi foundation did not make this a bigger announcement when releasing the new OS. I'm sure there is a "whats's new area" but most people look for the most important new stuff. Very bad for people who have a lot riding on camera apps.
Yeah, I had no clue until I spent a Saturday morning trying to figure out why the hell my new camera wouldn't work. No communication whatsoever. I'm sure many others are in the same boat.
It all depending on the Library your Python project requires (and how quickly the team/individual behind that Library is updating). Most likely the fastest way for your thesis project to get back up and running (without any code changes) is to use the previous 'Buster' OS. Check this guide here on how to do it - core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/flash-buster-os-pi.html

Hey mate, a typical rate is 30 frames per second for VLC files. So if you are saving your libcamera-vid files with more frames than that it'll likely cause VLC to slow down the playback. VLC has different ways of slowing down and increasing video speed. Click on | Playback | and hover over | Speed | to find them. Hopefully that helps 😊
@@Core-Electronics Hello, the playback speed was not the culprit. My knowledge on recording videos, buffers, fps, resolution, etc. is limited. Do you know what I would need to tweak?
Sorry, but I am feeling rather dim...using" libcamera-still -t 60000 --timelapse 10000 --datetime", how do I specify a directory to save the images. I figured that the --datetime creates the file name but cannot figure out how to change the save location to a USB stick, or any other directory rather than my home directory.
Easy mate 😊 I'll break down the problem to taking a single image and having it save to the desktop. To do that type and enter the following: libcamera-still -o /home/pi/Desktop/test.jpg Expand on that format to save it to whatever directory you desire.
@@Core-Electronics Thanks for the response. I see what you did to direct the file in the libcamera-still command, but I still do not see the syntax to use when --datetime creates the file. In the meantime I did realize that all I have to do is move to the directory I want to use first, and then execute the libcamera-still command. I learned programming with Fortran and always want to understand syntax of a command.
I reckon your using the older Raspberry Pi 'Buster' OS version or you have the new one set-up with the older Legacy Camera Stack. Give this guide a look here if you want to get straight into taking images - core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-high-quality-camera.html

Off-topic, but I have to ask: When you're a youtuber talking about technology, is there some sort of agreement you have to sign with RUclips saying that when you talk in your videos, you have to include odd and unnatural pauses between words in sentences? Seems like every tech-related video I watch, the speaker is, always... stopping. In. The. Middle. Of. A. Sentence. With. A. Pause. Between. Each. Word. It's consistent between a lot of videos and I can almost guarantee that none of these people talk like that when they're in normal conversation. There has to be a connection somewhere.
