    Kinect for Windows: Multiple Kinects successfully enumerate, but can only choose 1 of them...


    I have a touch screen PC which has a built-in camera. I'd like to have two video cameras (I stream in our game room for people who can't come due to Covid, and want one on a tripod, and one looking down at the table map).

    I plugged in both Kinect units to the PC. I can see all 3 cameras ("Front Facing Camera", "Kinect V2 Video Sensor", "Kinect V2 Video Sensor") in Discord. However, regardless of which "Kinect V2 Video Sensor" I choose in the dropdown box, its only pulling
    information off of the first one that I plugged into the PC (the overhead one on the ceiling).

    I would guess that the driver doesn't properly identify multiple kinect cameras and reports them all with the same identifier, causing any additional units to be completely inaccessible.

    Can this be fixed or worked around?

    :)

    Console Compatible with Kinect

    Xbox kinect are only compatible with the same generation

    So since you have the kinect 1 you can only use them on xbox 360

    Kinect 2 is only compatible with xbox one

    And the games are NOT forward or backwards compatible

    Kinect 2 has an advance cpu to recognize siting etc but the drivers are very very specific

    Kinect 2 availability

    Xbox 360's Kinect = Kinect v1.

    Xbox 1's Kinect = Kinect v2.

    Don't believe BestBuy employees who probably only earn minimum wage. THEY are NOT Microsoft. Microsoft has discontinued manufacturing Xbox 360 consoles. They wouldn't discontinue manufacturing Xbox 1 Kinects, yet! There is officially NO Xbox 1 version 2
    Kinect. Read the start of my post. It provides a simple answer. People just add random stuff to the title of what they're selling and it can be easy for customers to get mislead by the title.
    What I meant in the parenthesis is that the version of Kinect v2 for Windows IS discontinued, but what he told me is that the Kinect v2 for Xbox One was also discontinued. I am not interested in the Kinect version 1. My question was about the Kinect v2 for
    Xbox One availability.

    But apparently it is still available, at least for now. Only the kinect v1 is not available on microsoft website. I had to do some research just to be sure.

    Kinect播放本地视频时缺帧的情况 [Mod Translation-Missing frame when Kinect plays local video]

    Dear Diego:

    Thank you for your reply!

    I used the Kinect Studio2.0 on my Windows 10 PC to record the video. When I play this video with Kinect Studio2.0 next time,the written program shows that the player didn't get every frame successfully and my Computer configuration failed to meet the requirements
    of official website. So I just want to know if my computer can get every frame successfully.

    problem kinect adapter

    Hi Llenia,

    Thanks for coming to the forums. We understand you are trying to set up your Kinect. If you already have the drivers installed and still not recognized. We recommend to uninstall the drivers. To do this:

    Go to the configuration panel, add remove programs and Uninstall anything that stats with the word Kinect.

    You can also follow the guide for
    Kinect for windows
    . Also try the
    Kinect for windows FAQ
    for drivers.

    When you go to the FAQ you will see get the Kinect for windows SDK. Click that and download them.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    3 green lights on xbox 360S

    [quote user="Sparco Racing91"]

    "If you have 1 light on on port 1 and 1 on port 4 you have 2 controllers switched on." Makes sense but i only have 1 controller, and thats the only controller thats synced, and the charge is good.

    [/quote]I am just throwing it out there, about the green lights. Do you have a Kinect with Kinect ID set up on multiple accounts? Because Kinect ID sometimes messes up, and detects you as somebody else. When that happens, the other account is automatically
    signed in, and another green light on the console appears. This is just a guess, my Kinect does this sometimes.
