Kinect needs to be restarted

[wadesready]

I couldn't find a way to replicate this problem consistently, so it's been very difficult to debug.

One workaround I could try to add is an option to autorestart the plugin every X minutes.

thanks spud I'll give that a try...update....I installed Johns plugin script and now I am HAPPY once again. both Kinects work when they should be working.

is this just the way it is spud? is there no solution to this? I have two kinects and they both act the same way at times. it seems like they go to sleep and remain unresponsive until I shut down the remote and restart it, then it is fine for awhile again.

did anyone find a resolution to a local kinect non-response? besides restarting the plug-in? I have this problem and it seems to be getting worse....

I am going to try another Kinect device to see if this is a hardware issue. If this doesn't work I may need to uninstall plugin, Any one having issues with this problem?

not sure I understand what you mean by 25k or 32k?
what you have to look at in task manager is the CPU column, it's a % of the total CPU available (so it doesn't have a "k" at the end)

the log you attached only contains the initialization of the plugin so there is not much to see there.

The 25k and 32k is the CPU usage, I currently have the plugin disable to see if I get the lagging again. So far it has been stable. Any other test I can do?

[spud]

Disabling all except voice recognition is hovers around 32k. If I disable voice reconnition it drops to 25k.

Spud, for some reason the log file that I wanted to attach did not work work. but here it is. this was I think not sure before or after I ended the proceeds in task manager.

when you restart the kinect plugin does it immediatly takes 100% CPU?

the kinect plugin can be pretty CPU intensive especially if you use all the features, try to disable some of them: "Gesture, Posture and Person Recognition", camera, voice recognition...

today I notice that my TTS event where lagging. I opened task manager and CPU usage was at 100%. I then started turn off processes to see if the CPU usage will scale itself down. the kiect was at around 53k, when I turn kinect process off cpu usage came down to less the 10%. I captured info from log, didnt see any specific error. But maybe you can see things that I dont.

keep the log level to trace until the problem happens again then post the latest log lines from the Kinect plugin.

It a local instance.
When placing log level to "trace" what do you want me to test? Or what do you want me to do afterwards?

Hector,
Is it a local or remote instance?
could you provide some logs with log level=trace?
thanks
