Resolume crash when Canon Webcam Tool is installed

Post by astroger »

I'm glad I found this program. https://www.tequnique.com/dslrwebcam Very useful!
My old DSLR 550D/T2i can be used as an input source!

If the Canon Webcam Tool is installed the Resolume will not work properly. Resolume crash when I open a new or other composition. And always send crash report when quit.

If I uninstall Canon Webcam Tool, Resolume works flawlessly again.

Any idea or solution?

Could be buggy drivers.

Could you please use the crash reporter dialog that pops up after the crash to submit a crash report?
That way we get lot more detailed information about what went wrong exactly.
Don't forget to fill out your email address, so we know it came from you ;)

Also why not use the free ones from canon directly?

I’ve had to scrape my system clean of these! They killed another app (ZoomOSC). YMMV

My Camera (EOS 550D / T2i) is not on compatible list so I have not tried official utility before.
Now I tried it and it works. Hallelujah!!!

I spent € 5 unnecessarily on the unofficial version.

Thanks for the help with solving the problem. :-)

The official worked for my 40d and 5dmk2 too, they are not listed either.
