Re: Using OpenKinect project with CFClient

Success at last. Since the descriptions for installing the Python Wrappers of Freenect mentioned Python2.6 consistently, that is what I used to build the library. But that does not work together with the CFClient Kinect version, which needs to be built from version 2.7. So I started all over again a...

I am assuming that some library is missing or misplaced, but I cannot figure out which one. Do you have any suggestions where to look? Thanks in advance. Error 7657 error L...

I tried to get the software installed on a Mac, but did not succeed. Am now awaiting the OSX documentation. Then I started installing the software on a Win7 PC. It seems some important steps in the installation process were omitted. To experienced Python users these steps may be obvious but I needed...
