Hey Everyone,
I have a Zero W with a Pi camera module V2 and MotionEyeOS installed. I am able to get it booted up and connected to my wifi network. I am also able to connect to and view the camera through my laptops browser.
After a few minutes of viewing it, the unit will crash and reboot, usually successfully. Then the loop will repeat. Seems to happen faster when it up the resolution or frame rate in the camera settings.
Is the board overheating? I could understand if it wasn't able to handle turning up the camera settings to higher levels, but it seems it can't even handle the lowest stock settings?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thank you.
Maybe low-powered and memory-constrained hardware is not a good platform to run your application?
As an experiment, if you install a fresh copy of the current release of The Raspberry Pi Operating System (RasPiOS) and simply let the system idle, does the OS itself run reliably?
