Issue with Multiple PS3Eye Cameras

[cameycalzolano]

Hi everyone -

I am trying to hook 3 PS3Eye cameras up to Bonsai. We have installed the CL PS3 Eye Multicam SDK (which says that it can support up to 16 PS3Eye cameras) from the Code Laboratories website as well as the Bonsai.CLEyeMulticam package via the package manager on Bonsai. Note that we are using 32-bit Bonsai, as i’ve read that the CL driver only works with 32-bit Bonsai.

I am using the CLEyeSource node on Bonsai, and although it allows me to create and run three separate CLEyeSource nodes without an error, it seems as though only two of the cameras are being recognized in that only two GUIDs show up. Even when we type in the third GUID, nothing is displayed, just a black screen. It is important to note that both the Code Laboratories device manager and the computer’s device manager recognize the third camera.

Neither 32-bit nor 64-bit Bonsai lets us use the CameraCapture or VideoCapture Source nodes - we get a message saying “Unable to acquire camera frame” regardless of the index.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue in the past?

Thank you!
