Hi,
I just flashed my ESP32-CAM with your custom firmware and it fails to initialise the camera, with the message display below.
Please help.

Thanks in advance.

When I try to re-init the esp reboots.

Just ignore the error (GPIO isr service already installed), it is related with this PR. The camera works without any problem.
If you try to initiate the camera twice, the board reboots. But as I said, initiate the camera once and ignore the error.

Sweet, thank you very much.

Were you able to stream video from an esp32-cam continuously, I am having difficulties getting a continuous stream instead of still images with your code.

lemariva commented

No, I used the code to get still images (timelapse), but you can check this fork, may be it helps. You need to adapt it to the new driver.

Thanks and keep those blog post coming.
I have bookmarked your page.

FYI, the streaming mode works. I added it to the master branch. You need to set a get parameter stream=true and you get a MPEG streaming. I've just updated the firmware to make it compatible to the application.

I got the same results, dissapointed. Had to end up using Arduino.
Thanks Mauro
