usb 3.0 uvc camera issue.

We are using an UVC camera with TX2, capturing at fix resolution and format. We set the video stream on and off on the fly, and eventually the camera will stop streaming with following issue. We are using R28.1.

Please share the steps to reproduce the issue. We will try to reproduce it with our USB cameras. Thanks.

Hi, we have our own application which open the video device first, and leave the open until exiting. During the running period, we query the cap, format, resolution, and set the format and resolution accordingly. We set the stream type and buffer, then turn on the stream on/off depend on our need. This routine works OK in TX1. Those error usually happen after 10 times on/off switching, then we will fail to start the steam anymore.

Hi usaarizona,
Can you share a simple test app for us to reproduce the issue? Have you tried other USB cameras? Or is it specific to certain camera?

Hi DaneLLL,
Who should we speak to in order to solve this problem. We need the HDCP working to pass the encrypted video, and there is no problem in TX1. Thanks.

Hi usaarizona,
We have to reproduce it first. Need your help to share a test app. If you have concerns to share it online, please contact your NVIDIA region salesperson.

There is no HDCP supported on tegra. If you make it enabled, we don’t guarantee the functionality.

Also, why should uvc cam issue is related to hdcp? Please elaborate it.

Could you share a sample to us to reproduce? There is no way to debug if we don’t know how to reproduce.

Hi DaneLLL,

We have problem with one usb 3.0 camera keep reporting “Failed to Submit URB 0”, and we follow this link below to increase the UVC_URBS from 5 to 76 and also the UVC_MAX_PACKETS. which cause this problem, When we change those value back, the problem is gone. Thanks you all the same.

Many thanks for sharing the information.
