Programatically reset camera orientation for 3D picture control

Does anyone know how to programatically reset or control the camera orientation for the 3D camera control/indicator.
I'm trying to play back some motion data that I've gathered on a boat and I'd like to be be able to accuratley control the orientation of the camera (ie more then just by using the spherical camera controller)
Thanks for any help.

The new 3D
Picture Control in LabVIEW 8.20, has tons of functionality even though only the
most common features are exposed through the VIs
in the palette. The functionality of controlling the camera programmatically is
accessible through the "Setup Camera" method for the 3D Picture Control window/indicator:
Refer to the "solarsystem.vi" shipping example to see an implementation of the "Setup Camera" method.
Good luck!

Problems with Mouse Down event for a picture control embedded in tab.

I noticed that when trying to get a Mouse Down event for a picture control that the Mouse Down will not be 'fired' if the picture is embedded in a tab control. It also appears that this problem exists for other controls (I only tested a slider in addition to the picture). It isn't much of an issue for me now as I can just poll the mouse property of the picture control, but the Mouse Down event has information that I may want access to in my next software revision (button pressed, and Alt mod). I could do that by handling the Mouse Down event for the tab itself and checking to see if the the mouse property isn't -1, -1 for the picture, but that seems a little bit too kludgy (sp?) to me and wouldn
't address the issue with other control types. Any chance of this being addressed by a patch sometime in the next couple of months???

The problem I reported above was in LV 6.1.
As a work-around, I used the mouse down on the tab control and did the math to decide if the picture was clicked.
I have been told that this was fixed in LV 7.0. I can not confirm.
You could call NI and ask about the service request number I cited above.
I hope this helps,

A problem for the picture control .

Hello,
There is such a question :
When loading a picture into a picture indicator , I can pop up a dialog and have the user to assign some property values for the picture , the application then saves the values to a file . I believe I can recover graphics information through reading the file , but how to create such a mechanism which can assign or associate a data type (e.g. a Boolean value) as the user specified to a picture ? Of course , in edit status , a control can be customized and replaced by a picture sign , but I need to realize this when the application is running . Thanks .

Here is a VI-in-progress drawig some components of our system. I will post shape subVI's in subsequent replies.
This VI simply generates random numbers and colors shapes
accordingly. Therefore, separate shapes in the same picture
indicator are individual indicators. What I am aiming to do is
use event structures to make individual shapes in the single picture
indicator controls as well as indicators (i.e. On mouse over circle,
open "plotpressure.vi", on mouse click on diamond, send 5 volts to
channel AO 21, PXI 6528).
I have read some threads indicating the need for tedious locating of
different regions in the picture indicator for event programming, but I
have not gotten that far yet. I am still designing a picture
indicator with individual indicators.

The main VI is the "Multiple Shapes Example.vi"
It calls "Draw LE ESA.vi" and "(XY)r to 4s square.vi" among others. I will post the others subsequently.

Digital camera to Extreme for wireless picture downloads.

I have an AirPort Extreme to which I have successfully added a printer and external hard drive using a powered hub. I can access both wirelessly.
I am also trying to add a digital camera to the hub so that I can download my new pictures to iPhoto wirelessly without having to physically plug the camera into my MacBook, but I am having no luck with that.
Is it possible? If so, how do I do it?

Now I'm travelling to China at the end of the year I am hoping even more that some Apps guru can come up with even a basic processing App to load images that can attach to say, my daily news to my Friends on Facebook!
I know my Sony uses USB2.0 so all that would be needed is an intermediary link to plug into the Touch? I noticed there is Apple iPod Camera Connector (M9861) available but reviews don't cover the Touch and there's conflicting reports.
Already you can now get a useful photo retouching App (Picoli) which makes life even easier.
Fingers crossed I guess!

How do you read the camera position in the 3d picture control?

Hello,
There is a method to setup the camera position, but how do you read the current camera position? e.g. the user uses the mouse, ctrl, and shift, to change the camera position. How do you read this new camera position? There don't seem to be any properties to do this.
I've read this thread:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=214629&requireLogin=False
but the question was never answered....
From the comments in that thread, even if you had the proper documentation for the "Model Matrix" property, you couldn't get the information necessary to calculation the camera position.

Lorielle,
Thanks for the VI.
Could you point me towards a more detailed description of the "Modelview Matrix" property? I've attached a screenshot from the online help. It is not very helpful.

If you forgot your screen-lock passcode then:
Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Can't Activate Recorder. Try Resetting Camera.

This is usually a easy fix based on what I know on Premiere and in comparison to other peoples threads I've seen with the same problem. However, my problem doesn't seem to have the same symptoms from what i've seen.
As the title indicates, when I go to the capture panel I get the "Can't Activate Recorder. Try Resetting Camera".
Both Windows and Adobe can detect when the device turns on and Off, but for some reason, both cs6 and cs5.5 cant access the device for playback. The device is a Sony HVR-M25U.
It works, because before I started using my new rig, which was only a couple of weeks ago.
My Previous Machine picked it up in cs5.5 with no problem, it's a pretty decent machine too. I'm pretty very certain that it still can detect the device with no problems. Only problem is I can't use it until I get a new video card. Or I can remove the vid card from my current machine and put it back into the old one and capture the tape that way, but that is far more tedious and doing that every time a tape comes along would become annoying.
In the Device Control Panel, DV/HDV is selected and in the options, the Check Status Box is Listed as Online.
The Rig I have didn't come with a firewire port, so I bought a PCI 2.0 Firewire Card and installed it. Device Manager has it listed as working correctly.
What do you guys think the fault could be? I'm starting to think it's the firewire card, unless there are other ways to trouble shoot that I am not aware of in Premiere in regards to device capture. I'm almost 100% sure it's not the device. The only other thing it could be is Adobe Pemiere Pro or the Firewire card I bought. Any suggestions?

Other software to try...
SD capture http://windv.mourek.cz/ or http://www.scenalyzer.com/main.html
Do note that the demo version of ScenalyzerLive puts a watermark in the files it creates

Also, be sure your firewire driver is the one with LEGACY in the title

OK... all bets are off... that is not a supported version of Windows
You may get program features to work... or you may not

Premiere won't recognize my camera (Can't activate recorder. Try resetting camera.)

Ok I have a very perplexing situation. I have been doing video editing for years but this is a new one for me. I just got a new Windows 7 PC (64 bit) I7-8GB RAM Lenovo system. I just installed Premiere CS5.5 on it and installed a new SIIG firewire card. I have a Sony Mini-DV camercorder that works great and have been exporting with firewire on my previous 3 systems with no problem (last system was Win 7 64bit as well). On this system I attach the camera via firewire cable and Windows instantly recognizes the camera and the general dialog box comes up asking me if I would like to capture video with Adobe Premiere, Cyberlink PowerDirector, or Windows Live Photo Gallery. Both PowerDirector and Windows Photo Gallery I can open and capture video with no problems. However if I open Premiere in anyway (in DV mode) and bring up the capture window while the camera is on I get the message: "Can't activate recorder. Try resetting camera." If I switch the camera off while the capture window is up it then switches to the message "Capture device offline".
So it seems the firewire card, camera are fine, but giving Premiere fits for some reason. Side notes, I also have a Sony FX-1 HD camera which I can connect with the same firewire cable and inside Premiere and it will capture video but will not display it while capturing (I read this is common with High Def video though). I also have disabled the Windows firewall as I read about in other threads. I have tried 2 other firewire cards with the same exact results. The mini-DV camera I'm trying to get Premiere to capture with is a Sony DCR-PC9 and I have used it in my last 3 systems all running Windows and Premiere. This is really frustating.
Any tips and or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you, Kirk

MMS.CFG getting reset when contacting Adobe for updates

Hello!
I noticed two days ago that many users were getting prompts for updates.
I had deployed Flash 11.8 in July with the following MMS.CFG settingS:
AutoUpdateDisable=0
AutoUpdateInterval=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
Today I noticed the most users MMS.CFG was this:
AutoUpdateDisable=0
AutoUpdateInterval=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0.
Hence, not knowing what caused it, I decided to replace the file using SCCM for all users. Once it replaced successfully I thought our problem was solved.
WRONG!
After the file was replaced, about 10-20 minutes later I saw users trying to connect to Adobe from our FW logs. As soon as they contacted Adobe the MMS.CFG file was reset again to this:
AutoUpdateDisable=0
AutoUpdateInterval=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0
Any idea what could be causing this?

I have seen several postings like this one in the Forums, and I am having this problem too. No one has a solution that I can see. ʇɐb ɹəuəllıʍ suggested reporting it as a bug.
Here is a workaround I came up with for Windows 7 by reverse engineering Flash configuration:
On a test machine with default, or your preferred settings applied, go to Window Control Panel, and double click the Flash Player applet, which brings up: "Flash Player Settings Manager""
Click on the "Advanced" tab
Check: "Never check for updates (not recommended)"
Close "Flash Player Settings Manager"
This action will modify the file:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\settings.sol
Now, you can copy this file from the test machine to other machines / User profiles to "clone" the "Never check for updates (not recommended)" setting.
PS
I don't know if this applies to Windows XP. My guess is the mms.cfg works fine there.

Droid 4 - Cannot reset, camera locks

The camera app locks up when I try to take a picture. I press the shutter button and it turns blue on-click, but then never releases and takes the picture. I followed Dr. Google's advice and deleted the last few pictures. It worked for one picture and then started locking up again, so I cleared all of the photos off of my phone. The camera still locks up every single time I try to take a picture. There is tons of internal storage left on the phone.
My next step would be resetting the phone to factory defaults, but when I do that I get the "shutting down" message but it never shuts down. Never. I force reboot and try again. Again, it never gets past the "shutting down" message, doesn't clear the phone, and I force reboot to a phone that still doesn't have a working camera app.
FFS. I've had it barely a year and the camera hasn't been working for months.
Advice?

Rather than setting to factory defaults (and that didn't seem to work anyway!) try a system cache clear...
Power down phone
Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously until you see the Boot Mode Selection Menu
Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
Press volume up/down simultaneously to go into system recovery
Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select
It won't erase any settings or information on the phone, but it may help the camera glitchiness. If it doesn't, and you are still under warranty, you can get it replaced, as long as there is no other physical damage to the phone.
