This tutorial assumes you've already set up a Raspberry Pi with Raspbian12(bookworm). For help installing the Debian-based OS on your Pi, check out the docs on Raspberrypi.org.

   
  1.0 To check the kernel version, execute the following command:
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ unam -a
 
   
  1.1 To enable the device tree overlay in the /boot/firmware/config.txt
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt
 
Add two lines at the end of the file that reads like this:
dtoverlay=tc358743,4lane=1
dtoverlay=tc358743-audio

  Save and exit. In nano, you do that by hitting CTRL + X, answering Y and hitting Enter when prompted.
   
  1.2 Reboot the Raspberry Pi
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo reboot
   
  1.3 Check video devices list
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ v4l2-ctl --list-devices
   
   
  1.4 Create an EDID txt file to setup the HDMI to CSI adapter before you can connect it to a HDMI source. This EDID file will
      enable the video and audio mode supported.
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo nano 1080P60EDID.txt
  Copy below EDID data and paste to 1080P60EDID.txt

  Save to /home/pi and exit. In nano, you do that by hitting CTRL + X, answering Y and hitting Enter when prompted.
   
  1.5 Loading the EDID data
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/v4l-subdev2 --set-edid=file=/home/pi/1080P60EDID.txt --fix-edid-checksums
   
  1.6 Check the screen resolution
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/v4l-subdev2 --query-dv-timings
 
   
  1.7 Applying the screen timing to the capture setup
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/v4l-subdev2 --set-dv-bt-timings query
   
  1.8 Reset links
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ media-ctl -d /dev/media2 -r
  Please note that the /dev/media number can change. Go to step1.3 to check the media number.
   
  1.9 Set formats
 

   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ media-ctl -d /dev/media2 -l ''\''csi2'\'':4 -> '\''rp1-cfe-csi2_ch0'\'':0 [1]'
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ media-ctl -d /dev/media2 -V ''\''csi2'\'':0 [fmt:RGB888_1X24/1920x1080 field:none colorspace:srgb]'
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ media-ctl -d /dev/media2 -V ''\''csi2'\'':4 [fmt:RGB888_1X24/1920x1080 field:none colorspace:srgb]'

   
  2.0 Set output formats
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ v4l2-ctl -v width=1920,height=1080,pixelformat=RGB3
   
  2.1 Capture frames and save to /home/pi (filename: csitest.yuv)
 

   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ v4l2-ctl --verbose -d /dev/video0 --set-fmt-video=width=1920,height=1080,pixelformat='RGB3' --stream-mmap=4 --stream-skip=3 --stream-count=2 --stream-to=csitest.yuv --stream-poll

   
  2.2 To play the YUV file on Raspberry Pi OS desktop, use FFplay. (Not work if executing the command from SSH).
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ffplay -f rawvideo -video_size 1920x1080 -pixel_format bgr24 csitest.yuv
