[libcamera-devel] [PATCH] pipeline: imx8-isi: Set SensorTimestamp metadata

[Kieran Bingham]

Quoting Laurent Pinchart via libcamera-devel (2022-11-20 17:20:30)
> Report the sensor timestamp in metadata. Use the timestamp from the
> first buffer. Accuracy could be improved by using the frame start event
> from the CSI-2 receiver, but the kernel driver doesn't support it yet.
