Hi @ChairmanAlex,

From some searching online it seems that the Logitech C310 is quite similar to the C270, which [does not have a H264-encoded output option](https://discuss.bluerobotics.com/t/companion-c270-logitech-camera/3617).

It’s _technically_ possible to set up a manual gstreamer pipeline to stream without H264, or to convert the stream to H264, but the first approach uses significant bandwidth and can’t be received by QGroundControl, and the second approach adds delay to the stream and can overheat the Raspberry Pi.

Most likely you’ll need to use a different camera.
