After entering this command no response is coming…waited 5 minutes then I exit. I tried again but no response is coming.

Hi,
Is there any update on this problem?

Hi @Dion
My problem is not yet solved, but I did this:(this is what I got in return)

is it possible that as opencv does not support Y12 format that is why this problem is occuring?(not sure)
Let me know what do you think?
if you have any other solution to fix this issue please let me know.

Hi @Dion , is there any update? Please respond

Hi guys,
If you have faced a similar problem, please change the TOF camera to connect the CAM 1 port on your Jetson Orin Nano. That will make sense.
