we are facing issues with accessing the on board bottom and VGA camera in ubuntu. we tried all possible solutions from the discussion forum.

tried the sample-apps provided by intel and ran all the C++ files in it to access.

we got an YUV image which is of 0 bytes. tried multiple modes and nothing really helped.

I guess you are using the Aero Vision Accessory Kit with an R200 board, VGA camera and 8MP camera?

Is the 8MP camera the 'bottom' one, please?

THe 8MP camera is different and the bottom camera is the shutter mode camera.

Could you please check your connections of the cameras to the Aero board against the instructions in Intel's Aero installation guide to make sure that each camera is plugged onto the correct connector? Thanks!
