Error in getting image (red square on image)

[Eduardo Participant]

Hello,

I cannot get image stream, only a red square on a black backgorund. I am using a Raspberry Pi 3 B, Breakout Board v2.0 and Lepton 3.5. I know this is a known issue, but I have not found any solution to this problem, that is the reason I am posting this, to know if anyone got a solution for it.

I am following this: https://github.com/groupgets/LeptonModule
When I run sudo ./raspberrypi_video -tl 3 I got a red square with black background
When I run sudo ./raspberrypi_qt I got a full red square

What I have tried:
– Changing the CS0 to CS1 (pin 24 to pin 26). Nothing changed
– Removing and put back in the sensor in the breakout board. Nothing changed
– Removing the VDD from breakout board while everything was running. Nothing changed
– Already checked the connections and the supply voltage in breakout board. All is ok

Anyone have a solution for this problem? Or any other ideas?

Update: How I make it “work”.

Added this line: fprintf(stdout, "\n"); above if(resets == 750) { into LeptonThread.cpp:
and added #include <sdtio.h> in the file

//Note: we've selected 750 resets as an arbitrary limit, since there should never be 750 "null" packets between two valid transmissions at the current poll rate
//By polling faster, developers may easily exceed this count, and the down period between frames may then be flagged as a loss of sync
        # ADD HERE
        fprintf(stdout, "\n");
	if(resets == 750) {
		SpiClosePort(0);
		lepton_reboot();
		n_wrong_segment = 0;
		n_zero_value_drop_frame = 0;
		usleep(750000);
		SpiOpenPort(0, spiSpeed);
		}
	continue;

It’s not beutifull nor a final solution, but worked for me.
