Hi,
On and r2 camera, is there any way to avoid camera reboot when davinci process is killed ?
I already treid to kill other processes that may be checking for davinci like a watchdog with no luck.

Thanks!
 
are you killing the pid?
don't run it in the first place ?

Why do you want to kill it ?

If you are messing around with the cam/davinci , alter the shell script so it does not run davinci if a key is pressed.
 
I'm updating the mtd5 with a new image and sometimes it fails during the process (something related to davinci),
so i wanted to stop the davinci and the flash the mtd5.
 
if you have ash. Alter the shell script so it does not run davinci if a key is pressed. I have not messed around with R2. But hikvision does not like you stopping davinci. Think I managed to kill and stop davinci without reboot but it was a hassle. On the g0 cam it was easier to not run deamon/davinci if a key is pressed.

I can't do that, i use the davinci process but at some point i need to stop it to update the mtd5 and then reboot the camera.
