<![CDATA[Kinect to adaptor to canopus to another computer]]>Hi

I'm trying to get one laptop (A) to feed the kinect video (from isadora) out the display port into a VGA to S-video converter box, S-video into a Canopus AVDC-55 which is then sent via firewire into another laptop (B). This works if I use QT 7 on (B) computer. I see the video clip isadora (A) is playing or the feed from kinect-syphon-isadora. But when I open isadora on computer (B) the live capture doesn't work. Internal camera yes, the capture window recognizes the AVDC-55, but it's black.
Any ideas??
John

Sometimes Isadora will not list tied up device as available at all but other times these just do not work.

I usually do add my findings if it is something noticeable, but in this case it was lots of turning off and on live capture, restarting Isadora, checking connections, then voila!

A mystery, but it continues to work!

For the benefit of possible somebody who's problems do not solve itself.

If I had brains, I could figure out how to save the world with this particular skill... thanks anyway!
