Video Streaming
The board presents the camera as a standard UVC device, so any UVC-capable application can open the stream.
Windows
View the video using any of the following:
| Application | How to open the stream |
|---|---|
| VLC | Media → Open Capture Device → select the UVC camera |
| Windows Camera app | Switch to the FX3 CAMERA device |
Linux
The device is detected as /dev/videoX, where X is the video node number — see Getting Started to identify it on your host.
To preview the stream:
gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/videoX ! video/x-raw,format=UYVY ! videoconvert ! autovideosinkReplace videoX with the node reported under the FX3 CAMERA entry.
Reconnecting the USB Cable
Warning
If the USB cable is disconnected while the board is streaming, video does not resume when it is reconnected. Switch the 12 V supply off and on again to restore the stream.
