Problem with pcl-openni-tracking.exe

Hello forum,

I work on Windows 7 (64bits) with MSVC2010 with kinect camera. I downlaoded PCL-1.6.0-AllInOne-msvc2010-win64.exe.
I would use pcl_openni_tracking.exe, but when I run it the command windows closes instantly and I don't know why ?
Whereas, other programs runs good.
Thank you for your help and your attention.

Hi,

I hope you are running it correctly as:

>openni_tracking.exe "#1"

in the command window. You can give other arguments too and change device id instead of "#1"

Did you compile it from  openni_tracking.cpp ?

I could get it running on my computer. I shall be glad to help you out.

Cheers,

Thank you, the app runs. But why do I do that ?
I don't build the solution, I use the pcl-allinone, do you think it's better to build the solution on my computer ?

Thank you for help.

I had encountered problems earlier with all in one installers in running some modules. Hence I compile from source which works well. I am sorry, I didn't get what you were referring to when you said "But why do I do that ? ".

Ok, I'm sorry. Why do I pass by command window to open this application ?
I try to compilate with the source file.
Thank you.

Hi Laurent,

You should pass in the device id of the kinect to run it in the command window. Hence you pass in "#1" telling it to choose the 1st device. Let me know if you need more clarification.

You don't need to compile it from sources. But, instead of double-clicking the exe, open a command window, then :

> cd %PCL_ROOT%\bin
> pcl-openni-tracking.exe #1
