Upgrade to ARC Pro
Subscribe to ARC Pro, and your robot will become a canvas for your imagination, limited only by your creativity.
the new Edition has a big camera bug I think. I tested it on different EZB and with different cameras.. I can start the camera one time, If I stop and will start again its not possible. the camera not starting again.. if I try it 2-3 times to start the camera - ARC freeze and shut down.
I have a lot EZB and Cameras.. same problem with all devices. I tested also on differnt computers/ notebooks I hope you will fix it soon.
I can't figure out why that would happen. But it did happen on one of our computers, but not mine. The code hadn't changed for the camera in many many months. So we recompiled and now it works every time. For some reason the compiled binary was broken - I've only seen that happen once or twice before. Super rare and unusual
PS, please only post one comment on the same topic to keep Synthiam's website content organized
@DJ Sures
sorry for my double post. yes I know. I thought a bug fix goes faster if I make an own thread. I didnt know that you check all single threads.
perfect! good service.
No problem, Smarty. Glad we got you up and running
