Change default config file? #18

Closed rpavlik closed 9 years ago

rpavlik commented 9 years ago

cc @yboger - the current default config file is for the YEI version of the HDK. This trips up both users of the Bosch version of the HDK, as well as those trying to use the Oculus, since the YEI driver spams the screen with error messages in trying to talk to a non-existent serial port. (see #11 )

Ideally, and eventually, the default config file will be empty, loading all plugins by default and auto-detecting devices with auto-selected routes. The question is what to do in the meantime. Do we:

  1. Change the default config file to be the HDK Bosch one?
  2. Have no default config file, providing an error message saying "you have to pick a config"?

  1. Change default to HDK
  2. Increase priority of autodetect. Should not be too difficult to autodetect trackers since they all have USB VID/PID. COM port for YEI can also be detected.

OK, autodetect portion of issue has been split to #21 and https://github.com/OSVR/OSVR-Oculus-Rift/issues/1
