Hi Dion,
thank you very much for the answer!
I already worked with this document a long time and maybe I am just missing something.
The goal: I want to increase the image brightness for a 30fps video especially at low light conditions.
I tried to increase it via "base_ev " which is useless (dimming is working though), since a maximum “gain” of “6” is allowed. → Even with default “base_ev” the image wants to get brighter, but it simply can not, due to the limited gain list in the tuning file.
If I then just increase the allowed “gain” values (up to “10.0”) the image looks perfect at low light conditions, but at daylight a flashing occurs. The “AGC” seems to go crazy.
Can you reproduce the problem by just extending the gain list in the tuning file up to 10.
Am I doing something wrong or is the problem out of my hand?
I am using just a simple "libcamera-vid -n -t 0 --width 1920 --height 1080 --framerate 30 -b 3000000… " command and the following tuning file where only the “gain” list is extended until “10.0”:
