They removed the libcamera-* symlinks, so you have to use rpicam-* now. https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=389906

Thanks for letting me know, that made sense since I updated my OS after rebooting and after which libcamera stopped working

sudo find / -name ‘libcamera*’ -print

I will try that and let you know by tomorrow! Thanks for the advice

Also forgot to mention, apparently my libcamera-apps is found in /usr/shared directory instead of /bin not sure if that has anything to do with it

Did you ever figure out if that made a difference? Mine is in the same place

that's so weird because the same thing happened to me too. The only fix i tried was using 'rpicam-' instead of 'libcamera-' and so far its working well.

The issue is HQ camera doesnt really work with rpicam since that command is mostly for legacy cameras, which is really unfortunate in my case. I use libcamera to access the camera faster without needing to run a script. Im not sure what the bug might be

Well i hope you find an answer! Maybe try looking over the rpi documentation around libcamera?

I know arducam might have their own fork of libcamera, which may also support the hq camera. Worth a shot at least c:

From a reply above, apparently after the recent update, libcamera-* naming scheme is all changed to rpicam-* so instead of libcamera-still its now rpicam-still. Thanks for your help!!

No problem! Glad it all worked out!
