Can't figure out how to use ESP_video component.

I have it installed and I have been poking at the example code but the example code doesn't compile for my esp32p4.

So i have been trying to reverse engineer it. but there are a lot of #if statements and configuration references that I can't seem to find.

for example the

Code: Select all

capture_stream_main.c
code references

Code: Select all

example_video_init()
when i go there it has a bunch of config files being set by stuff that I can't find anywhere in the menuconfig
like

Code: Select all

#if CONFIG_EXAMPLE_SCCB_I2C_INIT_SET_BY_APP
which in the help files says that it let's you manually set up the configuration if you want.

I want to set these things up correctly for my project. but I am so lost on how I am supposed to do it if they don't show up in idf.py menuconfig
