C779
Overview
- This is a raspberry pi HDMI to CSI-2 Module with Toshiba TC358743XBG chip, HDMI input supports up to 1080p25fps.
- According to the customer feedback, this module does not support OctoPi.
- The model of module is C779.[1]
- This product is support also raspberry pi Bullseye OS, since raspistill, raspivid series tools are removed by BULLSEYS, you need to use gstreamer tool to replace raspistill, raspivid etc.
Geekworm HDMI to CSI Module Series:
Convert HDMI signal acquisition into CSI signal and I2S audio signal. The maximum capture resolution depends on the HDMI to CSI converter board as well as the Raspberry Pi hardware.
Raspberry Pi hardware are primarily divided into two series, one supporting a maximum of 1080P@60Hz and the other supporting a maximum of 1080P50Hz.
- Raspberry Pi versions that support up to 1080P60Hz: CM3, CM4, Pi 5B
- Raspberry Pi versions that support up to 1080P50Hz: zero, zero2, Pi3B, Pi4B, etc.

User Manual
- Due to the absence of hardware encoding on the Pi 5B, the software usage instructions for Pi platforms are currently divided into two sections: Pi 5B configuration and configuration for other Pi platforms.
- In platforms such as Zero, Zero 2, Pi 3B, Pi 4B, etc., there is a reference for testing HDMI to CSI module demo： C779-Software or Raspberry pi official forum post
