  4. Problems you were having?

The camera autofocus was working at first, but by changing the frequency in the .txt from 360000000 to 456000000, the camera now just displays the out of focus image, it makes no attempt to focus no matter the command.

  1. Your hardware dmesg log?

Return to frequency of 360000000, remove camera_auto_detect from the system and all

Finding the solution to have continuous autofocus again

This is from the command:

What a disappointment that no one wanted or could help me, I will have to return the product, I expected more from Arducam.

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. Will be checking it later.

Hi @Alexlora007
Everything works as expected on my side.
Steps taken:


* Modify the 360000000 to 45600000 in the config file.

* Reboot my Pi to take effect

* Run libcamera command

* Confirm the autofocus is still functioning

I cannot reproduce the problem here. Are you comfortable with a remote support?

In fact I already tried that, but the problem persists, the camera opens without problem but does not autofocus, I already changed from 360000000 to 456000000 and from 456000000, but there is no change, I also reinstalled the operating system 3 times believing that it had been corrupted but the problem persists anyway

How would remote support be, excuse me?
