<![CDATA[PS3EYE updated soultion]]>I recently (5 minutes ago) upadted my PS3EYE to Syphon system. It supports multiple cameras (apparently 16 with a lot of USB pcie cards but I cannot try) and gives complete control over all settings live as well as reporting settings back over OSC. I get 200 fps with low resolution, this will depend on your gfx card and computer specs.

You can get the source code and precompiled binaries for OSX here
https://github.com/fred-dev/ps3EyeSyphon_2
Hope it helps someone.

Also can we move this conversation to the issues section of the GitHub page. This is not really an Isadora issue.

Also can you try with a single camera? Are you using a USB hub? How are the cameras attached?

A windows version via spout is coming soon, in the meantime for mac users

https://github.com/fred-dev/ps...

Go to the release link for the precompiled download.

A note to @Fred and all about about @Skulpture's crash: he had the ancient maccam driver installed, which was last updated in 2008 and isn't 100% compatible with Isadora's current capture system. If you want to work with the PS3 camera, you will need to remove maccam, otherwise Isadora will crash. 
You can remove maccam by taking it out of one of the these directories, which you can access using the Go to Folder… command
/System/Library/QuickTime
/Library/QuickTime
~/Library/QuickTime
Best Wishes,
Mark

It's working fine for me, no hurry. (I am at the experimentation stage with the PS3Eye)

I had detailed the "freezing" thing above in the thread :
"Under 10.9.5, when PS3EyeSyphon is running (with a PS3Eye plugged), Isadora hangs at launch for about 10 seconds  under "Video Input : Initializing". And after it works.If PS3EyeSyphon is not running, Isadora starts flawlessly.(No Live Input running or set in Isadora settings)"

Philippe

Higher frame-rates require lower resolutions, try 320*240\. This is also linked to the power of your GPU, (not just how much memory it has but its throughput).
I would love to find an easy way to change the cameras settings from the app not the xml, so far it led to complications- I had to restart the app after every settings change but if this is OK, I will get around to putting it in.
I am also looking into the crash on exit and see what i can do.
I wont have time until a few weeks from now but Ill see what I can do.
What is the "Still freezing "Video Input : Initializing" of Isadora at lauch, but works." what happens exactly?
Fred

Real 640*480 syphon output. But when I ask for 100fps, capture doesn't go over at 60fps.
When I ask 50fps, I get 50fps.. (But 50 is enough for me at the moment).
Still freezing "Video Input : Initializing" of Isadora at lauch, but works.
PS3EyeSyphon crashes everytime on exit.

Features ?
The ability to change settings (resolution framerate, OSC...) into PS3EyeSyphon directly, not edit XLM.

That's a handy tool you made Fred.
Congratulations and thanks!

All the best
Philippe

Unfortunately its crashing isadora still but I am on a beta so im looking into it still.

I had actually uploaded an out of date binary. It should be better now, but anyone who has the time to test it let me know if you come across anything else.

One thing that is important is that you need to configure the camerasettings.xml first especially to make sure the OSC ports are free or the app will not start. I am working on a fix for this. The other bug as far as I can tell is that about 50% of the time for me the app crashes on exit as it does not release all its assets correctly. I hope to have that fixed in the coming days as well.
I am also curious if anyone that uses it has any other features they want.
Let me know
Fred

I'm looking into it.

I will do so tonight and see what the problem is. Does it work with simple receiver from syphon or any other software?

And after it works.
If PS3EyeSyphon is not running, Isadora starts flawlessly.
(No Live Input running or set in Isadora settings)

I open izzy. Do nothing (blank patch) then plug in the PS3 cam. Do nothing and Izzy crashes!

I didn't saw it was made for 10.10 only !
Yes it works under 10.9.5, but I think it acts weird : Ps3EyeSyphon outputs a 640*480 image in a blank fullHD syphon stream. (see attached). Is there a way to change the resolution of the syphon stream ? Is it a 10.9 limitation/bug ?

I just had the one plugged in. Its actually crashing my izzy funny enough - but I am running a beta.
