Cameras do not stream video

Hi,

I’m having trouble getting two Stereolabs ZED XOne GS cameras working on a Jetson.

System:

  • Jetson Orin

  • JetPack 6.2.1

  • L4T 36.4.4

  • Linux kernel 5.15.148

  • CUDA 12.6

  • TensorRT 10.3.0

  • cuDNN 9.3.0.75

Cameras / ZED:

  • 2 × ZED XOne GS

  • GMSL via MAX96712

  • ZED SDK 5.5.0

  • ZEDLink Duo 1.4.3-LI-MAX96712-L4T36.4.0

The cameras are correctly detected by ZED Explorer, GMSL/I2C communication works, the kernel detects both sensors, and /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 are created.

However, the cameras cannot actually stream any frames. Even using v4l2-ctl directly on the host, no frames are received.

The ZED SDK then fails with:

CAMERA FAILED TO SETUP

and the process exits with code -11.

Im trying to launch them with ros2 wrapper in docker and it returns with a log:

component_container_isolated-1] [2026-10-06 18:33:24 UTC][ZED][ERROR] [ZED-Argus][Critical] Cannot create iQueue (produceSingleV5)

I have already:

  • upgraded ZED SDK from 5.2.2 to 5.5.0,

  • reinstalled the stereolabs-zedlink-duo package,

  • verified that the cameras are detected correctly,

  • tested the cameras directly through V4L2.

The problem seems to be somewhere between the ZED sensor/GMSL pipeline and the Jetson VI/CSI capture layer.

Has anyone successfully run ZED XOne GS + ZEDLink Duo MAX96712 on JetPack 6.2.1 / L4T 36.4.4? Thanks!

Hi @SirMichcik
Welcome to the StereoLabs community.

This is a generic information. What type of Jetson Orin are you using?

Please share the code that you are using.
