Hello,

I have a Arducam Multi Camera Adapter module v2.2 using with Raspberry pi 4B with Python 2.7.16 version, OpenCV 4.5.0 and Numpy 1.16.2. I followed the documentation online and tutorial video. However, I need the python script because I have other things to control with the raspberry pi, but I cannot get the python scripts to work.

I did enable the raspi-config for I2C and camera, and also add (dtparam=i2c_vc=on) to the end line in sudo nano /boot/config.txt. I tested the sudo chmod +x init_camera.sh line for the files in the python folder and also tested AdapterTestDemo.py code working good but I can’t run and got error in PreviewOpencv.py programming .

Thank you.

Hello,

I have a v2.2 and I was able to get 4 cameras working with the C++ previewOpencv executable. However, I cannot get the python scripts working. Could you send me the documentation to run the previewOpencv.py please?

Thank you.
