Latest kinect drivers giveing rgb but no depth data

vvvv beta question
1

hello,

I am having a really tough time getting my kinect to function with vvvv version vvvv_45beta31.2. I am using the microsoft kinectSDK version 1.7. I am running on 64bit windows7 with a ati graphics card. The kinect was working with an older version of vvvv.

I have tried with both the 64bit version and the 32bit versions of vvvv and I am getting the same results from both.

As of this post I can only get rgb data out of the sensor. When I connect to a depth node I am getting only blackness. I can also no longer control the angle motor on the sensor.

Is it possible to run the 32bit version of vvvv on a 64bit OS? here are the next steps I am planning on taking I am open to any and all help available, or if anyone has any ideas as to what is going on please let me know.

  1. Try to roll back to an older version of vvvv and addon pack
  2. Uninstall the microsoft drivers and try to use the openNi versions
  3. back up my computer and set to factory and do fresh installs of vvvv and drivers.

Hi, bbentley81!

Yes it is possible to run the 32bit version of vvvv on a 64bit OS. And seems like you doing everything right.
The depth texture comes in L16 format, so try to use HSCB node to control brightness and you’ll see it works.
