Hi Folks,
Always one to try new stuff, I fired up the new video prob(e)ing plug in and it brings up an issue I had quite some time ago with the video windows and Mach3. This is several versions later of the video window and at least one new computer and several new hard drives and XP installs. (Should be rid of my gremlins of old and have new ones by now). I played with it a bit and here is what I get.
If you use either video plug in all works just fine UNTIL you stop recording or exit either plug in. Then try to use the video window again –either one of them- and it pegs the CPU (dual cores) and nothing much else happens. Running this on my indoor machine with no driver loaded, not the machine on my mill out in the shop. You can exit and re open either plug in and they will not work. You must exit Mach3 to get things started again.
What you do get sooner or later is a little window saying “VideOCX(VIDEO) – Disconnect failed”. I will also leave this in the Mach support site and try and attach the little window.
Anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong? I am sure this must work just fine for others or we would hear more moaning and groaning. <Grin>
