Kinect color source: Access violation

Hi,

I am using a Kinect and the Image Acquisition Toolbox (R2014b) to capture color/ir and depth data from the Kincet via Matlab. Everything (capturing, preview,...) works fine, but if I use GETSELECTEDSOURCE() to read out the device properties, Matlab crashes every time and shows an access violation.

However, this happens ONLY for the color source, i.e. for the depth camera GETSELECTEDSOURCE works fine! Does anyone face the same problem or has any hints for me?

Best regards, Wang

I have a similar problem but matlab 2015 does not work with color/ir and depth data. Can you solve the problem? Thank you

vianney, which Kinect are you using?

I think you used Kinect V1 for Xbox instead of Kinect V1 for windows. I encountered the same problem with the xbox version, yet everything works fine with the windows version.

I was getting the same error with Matlab 2015a on kinect for xbox. I implemented the following code and got the desired output without any errors:

vid = videoinput('kinect', 1, 'RGB_640x480');
triggerconfig(vid,'manual');
set(vid,'FramesPerTrigger',1);
set(vid,'TriggerRepeat', Inf);
set(vid,'ReturnedColorSpace','rgb');
start(vid);
trigger(vid);
colorImage= getdata(vid);
stop(vid);
