Hello,

Just bought the pro upgrade and having crash issues with my Orbit MP-1 camera. I Can see camera and it will zoom but not PT.

On the Zoom/Face Tracking tab the zoom will work but PT arrows will not work. Also on Pan/Tilt tab the Abelcam software will sometimes crash as I change between PTZ1/PTZ2/ Virtual options and click the select button.

Thoughts?

Steve

Crashes confirmed on my system with my OrbitMP (new style - Tag 861305. PID_08CC). Looks like a bug - I've copied this over to the Issue Tracker.

Melvin, uninstalled drivers and logitech software, then reinstalled just the driver(10.5 in my case, since I have Orbit model 861305). New drivers didn't help. Still crashing.

Steve, as I am on vacation I cannot do anything about these crashes from here. As soon as I'm back home I'll analyze the reports and I'm sure I'll find the reason for this behaviour.

Steve, didn't see your last post when it was new. Oops, sorry!

I didn't expect the driver change to stop the crashing - that's most likely a real AbelCam bug. However (going now into some things we discussed off-Forum) I was thinking that you would at least get some control of your PTZ (eg. from the driver's "Zoom/Face Tracking" property sheet). Did you at least get that level of control now? Also - probably a dumb question but I need to ask - you DO have Face Tracking turned Off, right?? If Face Tracking is left on, nothing's going to work as expected!

Thanks guys. Still working on it from this end and no luck. 95% of the time Zoom works, but no PT. Yes, face tracking is always off. If you have any other ideas let me know and I'll try them.
