NullPointerException in enable series methods and tilt, etc.. #24

Closed ablyeom closed 10 years ago

ablyeom commented 11 years ago

Hi, I tried to openKinect and SimpleOpenNi.

SimpleOpenNi had not problem at launching. But, openKinect returned "NullPointerException" in methods such as enableDepth, enableRGB, tilt, enableIR.

Also, example is not working. I don't know how to solve. How can fix it?

I'm using OS X 10.8, and Kinect for XBOX(Model 1473). and Processing 2.0.1 Is there problem in my environment?

Please, help me.

After reading through the issues list of the libfreenect driver, the 1473 has a newer firmware installed (depending on when it was purchased and whether or not it was plugged in to an xbox and received a firmware update from Microsoft).

The latest version of the libfreenect driver (0.2.0) has an issue with controlling the motors and led's on the 1473 at this point.

This might actually be the issue behind why this processing library isn't working with the 1473. I'll look into a little bit but I'll probably need help fixing it up...

Is this issues still valid? Try the new release on this repo and post an issue if so. I'll be deleting this repo soon.
