I did today and indeed, with the unmodified app there is no green taint on the first start. I have now tracked down the issue to my implemented rotation on the video-out: diff --git a/videoout.c b/videoout.c index 51bed8b..627363a 100644 --- a/videoout.c +++ b/videoout.c @@ -76,6 +76,14 @@ struct videoout *vo_init(const char *devname, goto error; } + /* setup the rotation here, we have to do it BEFORE + * setting the format. */ + ret = v4l2_set_control(vo->dev, V4L2_CID_ROTATE, &rotation); + if (ret < 0){ + perror("Failed to setup rotation\n"); + goto error; + } + pixfmt.pixelformat = format->pixelformat; pixfmt.width = format->width; pixfmt.height = format->height; I do a rotation by 90 or 270 degrees. So there seems to be an issue with the vrfb-rotation in omap_vout? I am already rotating the omapfb - is this a problem? omapfb.rotate=1 omapfb.vrfb=y Another possibility to rotate the captured stream? >> The color problem goes away nearly completely, if I do a power-off and >> on in the mt9p031_s_stream function.
