Good morning
I've been struggling for a long time, but finally I have to ask for help...
I recently bought myself a NodeMCU V2 module ( exactly this one ). I also have an ArduCam-Mini-2MP camera based on the OV2640 ( this ). Well, and of course I'd like to make myself a webcam
I've connected one to the other in the standard way (I've tried it many times, just in case I made a mistake), I've uploaded probably all the necessary boards and libraries to the Arduino app, I run the "ArduCAM_ESP8266_OV2640_Capture" sketch, the ESP8266 connects to the home Wi-Fi, I type the appropriate address into the browser, the serial port monitor displays:
20:37:57.294 -> Server started
20:38:02.395 -> CAM Capturing
20:38:02.491 -> capture total_time used (in milliseconds):52
20:38:02.491 -> CAM Capture Done!
20:38:10.088 -> send total_time used (in milliseconds):7624
20:38:10.088 -> CAM send Done!
The browser shows a dark background, but on it only the message:
Image "http://192.168.0.199/capture" cannot be displayed because it contains errors.
The camera itself is functional, because when I connect it via a regular Arduino and upload the sketch "ArduCAM_Mini_2MP_Plus_functions", I can see the image from it in the application "ArduCAM_Host_V2.exe". Incidentally, the same sketch uploaded to the ESP8266 gives "COM is open!" and "ArduCAM single" messages in the same application, but nothing else and the image is not there (here, however, I guess it has a right not to be).
In the file "memorysaver.h" I set once "#define OV2640_MINI_2MP", once "#define OV2640_MINI_2MP_PLUS", but neither one nor the other gives anything (actually for this camera it should be with PLUS).
What am I doing wrong, can someone advise me?
Greetings
