Hi, we’re about to release a new Arduino Portenta firmware and IDE. Please wait until this release comes out. It may fix your issue.

Strange how ? Can you attach some screenshots ? Also which firmware are you using ?

There are screenshots with and without SD card. Firmware is latest 3.6.8. I’m using 32GB SD card from Kingston.

Talking about the SD card. I put mine in but I think it is unformatted, so I have 2 questions:

\

  1. How to I get it out, it feels locked or at least really tight. Is it just pull hard. I don’t think it is push then pull like some other sd cards. Looks like it might have a little lock. Any ideas.

    \
  2. Can I format it while it is in the Portenta Vision Shield slot?

  1. You just pull it out.

  2. Yes, using your desktop OS.

Hi, I also found a similar problem as shown in matt992’s pictures.
Would it be possible if you could update the OpenMV IDE to 3.6.9?

After I installed the latest version, 3.9.0, the problem is solved!!!
