Issues with OpenKinect

winuuu

When trying to run a sketch while using the OpenKinect Processing library, I am met with this error:

"A library relies on native code that's not available. Or only works properly when the sketch is run as a 32-bit application."

Looking up different solutions, I've even installed the Boost C++ library for my mac and I am still getting the error. Does anyone have a solution?

Here's my code:

import org.openkinect.*; import org.openkinect.processing.*;

Kinect k;

void setup(){
  size(640, 480);
  k = new Kinect(this);
  k.start();
  k.enableRGB(true);
 }

 void draw(){
  PImage img = k.getVideoImage();
  image(img, 0, 0);
 }

it depends on your system but I think you need to install libfreenect.

I've worked on a new version of the library that is (hopefully) compiled for 64-bit. Please test! (The point of this library is that it contains libfreenect and therefore you do not have to install it.)

hi guys,

I've installed the openkinect libarary as well and i get the same error. I've tried the 32 and the 64 bit processing. I'm running on a PC.

hello @shiffman ! Big fan,

Say, your libKinect.jnilib in your dropbox, is there one for Linux 64? I'm running into the same errors stated in those threads running Ubuntu 14.04.

cheers.

I haven't tried getting it to work in linux but others have.

Hope this helps and let me know how it works!

Thanks so much @shiffman! I'll check that out... I hadn't seen these.
