Thank you,

Hi, @veetek22

Have you installed the latest Libcamera-DEV, which is the 0.0.8 version.

As the naming space where AFTRIGGER is located in the latest Libcamera has changed, this problem has occurred.

I’m sorry to bring you trouble, we will repair this issue as soon as possible.

Yes , libcamera-dev is at version 0.0.8

anything I can do to fix it ?

what are my options ?

Good Morning @yang , anything I can change in the files to make it work ?

Hi, @veetek22

We have updated the Libcamera plugin of MJPG-Streamer.

You can refer to the following link manual compilation execution:

Hello @yang, I have just tested the changes done to libcamera, and I am now getting this error:

It is occurring in the same part of the code

@yang, If I implement the suggested change, it solves that error, however I encountered a new error:

EDIT: I made the changes suggested in this post https://forum.arducam.com/t/problem-compiling-mjpg-streamer-on-buster/2737 and I was able to compile!

@rsmith9945

Hello @Edward, yes after installing the recommended octoprint version, and following this guide, I was able to get it to work! I am using a raspberry pi zero, so my camera stream kept freezing so I had to make a change recommended in this article Webcam freezing after a few seconds - Webcams - OctoPrint Community Forum and now everything works perfectly!
