Hi folks!

Has anyone managed to run Touchlib with a DMx 21AF04 Firefire camera from ImagingSource?

I installed the driver from the CD that came with the cam, Windows control panel also says that the cam is working properly… Is there any simple program for Windows to test a connected camera? (like Photo Booth or Quicktime on Mac, just to see wether there is input from the cam at all)

And by the way - where do I tell Touchlib which camera to use? It’s never asking…

Solution after 2 days: Windows ServicePack 2 has a bug that makes Firewire connections lame as a snail. High-End cams like the ones from ImagingSource don’t like that at all.
A Hotfix for the SP2 bug is available at the Microsoft Homepage (search for “sp2 firewire").
