What is USB Camera Name in IMAQ USB-Init.vi?

Hi,
The subject of this message explains my question. In addition, I was wondering if someone could tell me whether the "USB Camera Name" can take any name or not. Finally, when I run my program, I get an error indicating that "Filter name not found". Can somebody tell me what the Filter name is?
Thank You

Yes, it does matter what you use as a camera name. Use the IMAQ USB Enumerate Cameras VI to get the names of all the connected cameras. Then feed in the one that you want to use.
Hope that this helps,
Bob

  • Phoenix 1280 USB camera gives IMAQ USB Init error?

    We're trying to use a Phoenix PC-1280 USB video camera with either Labview or the Vision Assistant. In both cases we get an error in the IMAQ USB Init.vi (eg, "IVA Acquisiition Tools palette.vi was stopped at node 0x140 of subVI IMAQ USB Init.vi"). We have the latest version of labview and the vision module. The Mutech people are being totally useless, but I suspect the problem is in their driver which is supposed to use DirectShow and should be compatible. Before we toss this $1000 camera in the trash, can someone suggest a quick fix? ...or even a slow one
    PS -- it's not the language problem, we're all in english

    Hi Cyndeigo,
    One thing to check is to see if your camera is being recognized
    by LabVIEW.  One way to do this is to use
    the USB enumerate cameras.vi.  If this is
    sending back the camera name, then make sure you are connecting the USB Init.vi
    as shown in the attachment.  If the USB
    enumerate cameras.vi isn’t feeding back any data then there is probably something
    wrong with the driver.  I hope this
    helps.   Keep me posted.
    Regards,

  • Recovery Media for Tecra R840 - What size USB or DVD?

    What size USB (or DVD media) is needed to create the basic recovery media?  I saw the post for the user who also had MS Office 2010, but what size USB (or DVDs) would be needed to create the basic recovery media (ie, without the Office suite) - a search of the manual failed to provide the answer?
    Thanks - FB

    I believe the Recovery Media Creator should specify if you continue to go through it.

  • Camera.names.length returns 0, doesn't detect iSight webcam

    My Air app can no longer get the names of camera devices installed on my Mac.
    This was working for months and until a day or so ago I am not sure what happened.
    I'm not sure if AIR 2.5.1 update or viewing a website (http://www.2much.net/miricam/freemiricam.php)
    with a flash page that showed my webcam messed up some internal flash/air setting.
    Running my air app, Camera.names.length now returns 0, when previously it would return 3. Camera.getCamera() doesn't work either (returns null), so I can't view my webcam (iSight).
    When I run my air app in the Flex Builder debugger, Camera.names.length returns 3 and I can view my webcam. I am at a loss at how to fix this.
    I have tried uninstalling FP, AIR, Manycam (a webcam splitter software), fixing my Mac's permissions using Disk Utility, rebooted, reinstalled FP, AIR, Manycam. Trashed the /User/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR folder. Nothing fixes it. Tried it without Manycam running but the problem is still there.
    Does anyone know what is going on and how can I fix this?
    Air 2.5.1.17730 17730
    Mac OS X 10.6.5
    FP 10,1,102,64

    I am Running:
         - MAC OS X 10.6.6 (Snow Leopoard).
         - Flash Player 10.1.102.64 (debugger)
         - Adobe AIR 2.5.1.1 (MAC)
         - Adobe Flex 4.1.0
    I have compiled a simple test 1 Flex app & 1 AIR app with the following code:
         trace(Camera.names.length);
    The Flex app returns 3 camers (my iSight, and 2 usb connected Logitech Cameras).
    The AIR app returns 1 camera(USB Device).I am building an app that requires the use
    of the 2 USB connected Logitech Cameras. It works in Flex but not in AIR.
    I have tried to roll back to AIR 2.5 and to the newest AIR 2.5.1.1 and no luck.

  • Camera.names not correct on mac

    Hello,
    I developed an AIR app that should use an external camera.
    Everything works all well on my development PC, but on the Mac's
    that are used for the project, the built in isight-camera, causes
    me a lot of troubles. The external Logitech Vision Pro is not
    shown. Only one camera is available with Camera.names.
    So the built in camera is the only one that seems to be
    available in AIR. I wrote some code which can be used in an AIR app
    and a web app to test the list with available cameras and connect
    to one of them.
    <mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
    private function connectCamera():void {
    var cam:Camera =
    Camera.getCamera(cbCameras.selectedIndex.toString());
    videodisplayer.attachCamera(cam);
    ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:ComboBox id="cbCameras" x="10" y="10"
    dataProvider="{Camera.names}" width="260" change="connectCamera();"
    />
    <mx:Button x="275" y="10" label="Start"
    click="connectCamera();"/>
    <mx:TextArea x="10" y="40" text="Camera names:
    {Camera.names.toString()}" width="320"/>
    <mx:TextInput x="10" y="92" text="Number of cameras:
    {Camera.names.length.toString()}" width="320"/>
    <mx:VideoDisplay id="videodisplayer" x="10" y="122"
    width="320" height="240"/>
    To make it even more frustrating you should try the following
    with Flex:
    * use this code in an AIR app and run it
    * select "USB Video Class Video", which will show up the
    built in camera
    * leave this screen open
    * use this code in a web app and run it too
    * this will show up two extra cameras: "DV Video" and "IIDC
    FireWire Video"
    * select the same USB camera, and in my case this showed the
    external connected camera !
    Any ideas what's going wrong ?
    Tried this with different apple computers, different versions
    of OS X.
    Problem could be solved if the internal webcam would be
    disabled, but this doesn't seem to be possible.
    Thanks a lot,
    Frank

    You're right, there seems to be no way to disable the built-in iSight cam on the MacBook/MacBook Pro - BIG mistake on Apple's part!  Here's a link to a discussion about this from the Apple forum:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1374761
    This quote, from the page linked above, MIGHT be helpful to you:
    My Logictech 9000 doesn't show up in the Flash video source dropdown for me either. Selecting USB camera just selects the iSight.
    However, I did find a workaround: it seems to choose the first available usb webcam, which is typically the built-in iSight. If you have a mac mini with no built-in iSight, it uses the external camera by default. For my MacBook, I found the trick was to make the iSight busy by opening Photo Booth first, then opening the flash chat page.  That causes the flash player to find and use the external USB webcam. 
    Note: your webcam probably has to support the new standard USB Video plug-and-play protocol for this to work, and perhaps only on Leopard.
    Of course, have fun trying to explain this to other users of your program... but maybe there is somehow a way that you could code for this, by adding some script that runs the iSight just for the sake of distracting it, before the script runs that is supposed to detect and launch a USB cam as part of your program.  Good luck!

  • What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro (it has been taken out of the computer) to my new macbook pro?  I need to transfer files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

    What is the exact name of the cable I need to connect my old hard drive from my macbook pro, which has been removed from the computer, to my new macbook pro?  I need to transfere files from the old hard drive to the new computer.

    No eSATA to USB. Just a SATA/IDE to USB adapter. Google SATA/IDE to USB adapter and you will get tons of links to buy them. Most likely your local computer electronics store has them, although they might be more expensive buying locally than online.
    I have several. You can get either USB 2, which what I recommend, or USB 3. USB is backward compatible so a USB 3 adapter will work on a USB 2 port and a USB 2 adapter will work on a USB 3 port. Backward compatible in both directions.
    I suggest a USB 2 type because there have been some problems with certain USB 3 devices, the USB 3 interface used isn't all that good in those certain devices. USB 3 is still fairly new where as USB 2 has been around for over 10 years.

  • Camera.names() crashes in PC

    Hi,
    I'm developing an app for ipad using its camera and my app crashes when I launch it in my laptop. It works fine in iPad2.
    My code is pretty simple... and copied.
    private function getCamera(position:String):Camera
    var d:Boolean = Camera.isSupported; // returns true
                                  for (var i:uint = 0; i < Camera.names.length; ++i) //CRASH!!!!!!!!!!!
                                            var cam:Camera = Camera.getCamera(String(i));
                                            if (cam.position == position) return cam;
                                  return Camera.getCamera();
    Windows7, air 3.5.
    I haven't found sny sort of information about this issue in this version, is it not compatible with some laptop cameras? any already known issue?
    thanks!!
    edit: adl crashes somewhere reading vdpsrc.dll

    Thanks.
    Since PhotoStream is not an open source application, don't you think it a bit odd that Apple has not fixed the problem?  I do!
    Why should we be figuring out 'workarounds' for [what sounds like] their problem?
    Again, thank you for the reply...I'll try it.
