Camera board • Re: Trouble with HQ Camera and Pi 5

I've followed the instructions the pinned post, and nothing.

Which instructions, and which pinned post?

This one.

If that is an IMX477, then adding "dtoverlay=imx477" to /boot/firmware/config.txt should be sufficient.

Before I did anything I tested a NoIR camera I had laying around, and it worked perfectly. I switched back to the HQ camera and added the dtoverlay=imx477, and it still didn't work. I tried both ports, still nothing. Changed camera_auto_detect=1 to camera_auto_detect=0, and still nothing. Unless there's a configuration/software issue I'm missing, then it must be hardware. Either the HQ Camera itself or the cable. The HQ has the 20 pin connector, and the cable I'm using is the only one I have that's 20pin on both ends. My other cameras are 15 pin, and the cables are 15-15 or 15-20.

So yeah, software or hardware? I may order another cable just because they're cheap.
