3516CV300 + SC2235

[sbr2004]

• Camera board id: hardware=50H20L
• OpenIPC version: 2.3.05.22

Unable to get 3516CV300 + SC2235 running. Tried some other SC2235 drivers, no luck. Please help and let me know about any additional information from my side that could help.

We don't have such hardware, so it's not supported. I may consider donating it (minimal qty is 2 boards, at least one with stock firmware installed)
