Video showing broken image icon, keyboard and mouse still work.

    Hi,

    I just purchased this TinyPilot Pro a few weeks ago. It has been working fine until today when I start getting the broken image icon. Keyboard and mouse (within that tiny image icon) still kinda works. I noticed there's a thread having the exact same issue as mine, but our error messages seem a bit different. Mine says:

    Feb 12 05:59:45 tinypilot systemd[1]: Started uStreamer - Lightweight, optimized video encoder.
Feb 12 05:59:45 tinypilot ustreamer[641]: Unknown encoder type: omx; available: CPU, HW, NOOP
Feb 12 05:59:45 tinypilot systemd[1]: ustreamer.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Feb 12 05:59:45 tinypilot systemd[1]: ustreamer.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

    I tried the suggested method below but still didn't work:

    cd /opt/ustreamer/
sudo make clean
sudo make
sudo systemctl restart ustreamer.service

    My log can be found here: https://logs.tinypilotkvm.com/VdJweqfe
    Please help, thanks in advance.

      Thanks for reporting this! Sorry for the dead stream.

      It looks like you're using a Voyager series or a DIY TinyPilot with the HDMI to CSI bridge. Is that right?

      If so, when you recompile uStreamer, you need to pass an extra argument:

      cd /opt/ustreamer/
sudo make clean
sudo make WITH_OMX=1
sudo systemctl restart ustreamer.service

      Can you try that and let me know if it gets your stream back?
