Help with SimpleOpenNI

edited September 2016 in Kinect

So I ame getting the error:

"SimpleOpenNI Error: Can't open device: DeviceOpen using default: no devices found Can't init SimpleOpenNI, maybe the camera is not connected!"

when loading a sketch with SimpleOpenNI. I'm on windows 8.1 with Kinect v1 1414, processing 2.2.1, kinect sdk 1.8, SimpleOpenNI 1.96, OpenNI/NITE Win64 0.27 (from https://code.google.com/archive/p/simple-openni/downloads).

It seems that it the library is not commuicated with the kinect. The kinect works fine as I am able to get it running kinect4winSDK.

I found this

https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/comment/2677#Comment_2677

And it suggests I should switch out the libfreenect.0.1.2.dylib and libusb-1.0.0.dylib from

https://github.com/kronihias/head-pose-estimation/tree/master/mac-libs

The directory mentioned is for mac, so I havent tried this for my windows 8.1 yet. Not sure where the directory is. And the link supplies MAC libfreenect.0.1.2.dylib and libusb-1.0.0.dylib.

Anyways anyone have experience with this can help guide me? Thanks
