NB: https://git.sr.ht/~martijnbraam/megapixels states there should be a /dev/media device, but there is none.

There are two video devices.

• /dev/video0:

Driver Info:
        Driver name      : qcom-venus
        Card type        : Qualcomm Venus video encoder
        Bus info         : platform:qcom-venus
        Driver version   : 5.13.0

• /dev/video1:

Driver Info:
        Driver name      : qcom-venus
        Card type        : Qualcomm Venus video decoder
        Bus info         : platform:qcom-venus
        Driver version   : 5.13.0

It seems camera is not found (cheese, guvcview and firefox don't detect any camera device)
