      Hi Viktor,
      We use Pi OS32 bit for now. We support two application scenarios:

      1. veye_raspcam toolkit:
        Do not need any driver. It's raspcam like toolkit.

      2. v4l2 driver:
        v4l2 driver is provided. We test it on piOS 32bit.

      Here is the application index.
      http://wiki.veye.cc/index.php/Raspberry_Pi_Application_Note_Index

      If you want to use this camera on ubuntu OS or piOS 64bit, please try to build from sources, I will help you if necessary.

        I have tried:

        crosscompile kinux image veye327 driver for Ubuntu Desktop 21.04 Rpi4

        on rpi4

        uname -r

        5.11.0-1008-raspi

        uname -a

        Linux number 5.11.0-1008-raspi #8-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Thu May 6 17:46:38 UTC 2021 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux

        on host

        sudo apt install git bc bison flex libssl-dev make libc6-dev libncurses5-dev crossbuild-essential-arm64

mkdir rpi_ubuntu_source
cd rpi_ubuntu_source

git clone --depth=1 git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux-raspi/+git/hirsute

git clone https://github.com/veyeimaging/raspberrypi_v4l2.git


cp raspberrypi_v4l2/driver_source/cam_drv_src/rpi-5.x_all/veye327.c hirsute/drivers/media/i2c

        edit hirsute/drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig

        find section imx219 and after it add:

        config VIDEO_VEYE327
	tristate "VEYE VEYE327 sensor support"
	depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2
	select MEDIA_CONTROLLER
	select VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API
	select V4L2_FWNODE

	  This is a Video4Linux2 sensor driver for the VEYE

        edit hirsute/drivers/media/i2c/Makefile

        find line imx219 and after it add:

        obj-$(CONFIG_VIDEO_VEYE327)	+= veye327.o


cp raspberrypi_v4l2/driver_source/dts/rpi-5.10.y/veye327-overlay.dts hirsute/arch/arm64/boot/dts/overlays

        edit hirsute/arch/arm64/boot/dts/overlays/Makefile

        find line imx219 and after it add:

        veye327.dtbo \

        build

        cd hirsute

KERNEL=kernel8
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- bcm2711_defconfig

make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- menuconfig

        got to Device Drivers --> Multimedia Support --> Media ancillary drivers --> Camera sensor devices

        select veye327 and save

        make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- Image modules dtbs -j4

        copy image and dtb

        on rpi4 replace vmlinuz-* with compiled hirsute/arch/arm64/boot/Image

        on rpi4 copy to /boot/firmware/overlays dtb file hirsute/arch/arm64/boot/dst/overlays/veye327.dtbo

        Before was imx219 connected and it works on Ubuntu Desktop 21.04 rpi4 as /dev/video0

        Was replaced imx219 to veye327E.

        After reboot rpi4 loaded but /dev/video0 gone.

        Can you help me to understand what files i need to copy?
        May be config, system.map, initrd or other dtb files?

              I tried installing veye327 to rpiOs.

              I have 5.10.36 firmware. veye drivers don't have this version.

              I tried build from source, but failed.
              Copied built zImage and veye327.dtbo to rpi and got load kernel modules failed on startup.

              Updated: i did modules_install and veye327 works on rpiOs now.

              Can you help build kernel for Ubuntu Desktop Rpi?

                        Thanks very much.
                        I wonder how did you set camera parameters, I found that the cs_mipi_i2c.sh not working.

                            Can you use the original pi commands (e.g. raspistill raspivid), instead of using gst-launch?

                              @fire Yes, raspivid and raspistill works too on Ubuntu.
