    Hi all,
    I am using Raspberry pi 4 with Raspbian Buster and qt15.12.7.
    Now I am using a usb webcam. I use Camera and VideoOutput with a filter.
    In the filter I am converting the QVideoFrame to a QImage.
    For checking I save the QImage.
    The image has 640x480 as expected, but it shows only a cutout (top left corner) of the image.
    The image looks like it is zoomed and streched.
    The preview of the camera stream in GUI looks good.

    Any ideas what could be the problem here?

    @Melle_87 How do you show the image?
    Please show the code.

        @jsulm:

        Rectangle {
                id: videoOutput
                z:99
                color: Style.buttonBackground
                VideoOutput {
                    id: vid
                    source: camera
                    filters: [ camera.filt ]
                    visible: true
                    anchors.fill: parent
                }
            }
        
            Camera {
                id: camera
                deviceId: "/dev/video0"
                viewfinder.resolution: "640x480"
                viewfinder.maximumFrameRate: 10
                viewfinder.minimumFrameRate: 10
                exposure.exposureMode: Camera.ExposureManual
                exposure.manualAperture: 16
                exposure.manualShutterSpeed: 1/100
                exposure.manualIso: -1
            }
        
            MyVideoFilter {
                id: myFilter
            }
        

        This is the live stream in the GUI:
        LiveStreamInGui.png

        And this is the saved image after convertion:
        SaveImageAfterConvertion.png

        I have to mention that everything has worked fine on the Raspberry pi 3 with Raspbian Stretch.

          The important part of your code is the QVideoFrame to QImage conversion.

                Since you are copying raw data from the QVideoFrame to the QImage, I think there is format issue.

                I guess QImage::Format_Indexed8 is the wrong format. Have you check the pixel format of the QVideoFrame?

                  @GrecKo: Pixel format of the QVideoFrame is QVideoFrame::Format_YUYV (21). But this is not available when I am creating my QImage. Which pixel format do I have to use instead of QImage::Format_Indexed8?

                      Hi,

                      To add to @GrecKo, YUYV is not directly mappable to an indexed image format.

                      What exactly are you trying to achieve ?

                        @SGaist This talks about converting YUV to RGB. Is this the same as UYUV?

                        C++ is a perfectly valid school of magic.

                          YUV is a color space as is RGB, YUYV is one of the many possible ways to store YUV data like you have RGB, BGR, etc.

                                My guess is that the Pi 3 was providing frames in a different format.

                                    @GrecKo: Thank for the link. I tried to register QZXingFilter in main.cpp:

                                    qmlRegisterType<QZXingFilter>("MY.QZXingFilter", 1, 0, "MyQZXingFilter");
                                    

                                    Then I importet it in my qml file, instatiated it and assigned to my VideoOutput:

                                    import MY.QZXingFilter 1.0

                                    VideoOutput {

                                      @GrecKo: Thank for the link. I tried to register QZXingFilter in main.cpp:

                                      qmlRegisterType<QZXingFilter>("MY.QZXingFilter", 1, 0, "MyQZXingFilter");
                                      

                                      Then I importet it in my qml file, instatiated it and assigned to my VideoOutput:

                                      import MY.QZXingFilter 1.0
                                      
                                      MyQZXingFilter {
                                          id: myBarcodeFilter
                                      }
                                      
                                      My_Camera {
                                          id: camera
                                      }
                                         
                                      VideoOutput {
                                          id: vid
                                          source: camera
                                          filters: [ myBarcodeFilter ]   
                                      }
                                      

                                      But now I get some errors.

                                      @Melle_87 said in After convertion QVideoFrame to QImage, the QImage is zoomed and streched:

                                      MyQZXingFilter

                                      Is it derived from QObject?

                                          @Melle_87 Then I guess you do not build/link moc_*.cpp file for MyQZXingFilter

                                          undefined reference to `QZXingFilter::QZXingFilter(QObject*)' - actually you seem to not link QZXingFilter at all
