I doubt it's related to the CPU to be honest. A number of people have reported a similar symptom over the years but I've never been able to reproduce it on any of my machines.
Based on the symptom I would say that since it flashes the splash screen it means the .NET framework is installed and compatible, but one of the system assembly that is dynamically loaded during the initialization is not found or not the right version. Or maybe one of the program's assembly or one of its dependencies has been put in quarantine by the AV.

See if you can try right click and "Troubleshoot compatibility".

Could you confirm the other laptop with Intel is also running 2023.1.2 or a previous version? I haven't had a lot of comments on 2023.1.2 so I'd like to make sure it's not a regression general to this release.

Yeah I often want to skip 5 or 10 seconds as well. And it seems easier to reason about than "1%" which changes meaning for every video, or maybe it's the muscle memory from using arrow keys on Youtube.

Probably we should replace these commands with "short skip" and "long skip" and let the user choose both the value and the unit (percentage or seconds). It could default to something like 5 seconds for short skip and 10% for long skip.

Bonjour,
C'est avec la version zip ou bien l'installeur?
Quelle version utilisiez-vous avant?
Est-ce que vous pouvez tester avec la version 2023.1.1, ça m'aiderez à savoir si le problème est intervenu juste entre ces deux.
Est-ce qu'il y a un fichier d'exception dans le dossier des logs par hasard? (sous %appdata%/Kinovea dans la version installée et dans le sous-dossier AppData pour la version zip). Fichier commençant par "Unhandled Crash" et s'il y a un log.txt ça m'intéresse aussi.
Merci

Yes it looks interesting. It's not possible at the moment, first we need to have a better remote control interface so this sort of tool can call it.

Can you clarify a bit what this is, how you would use it with Kinovea? Is it like a software-version of a Streamdeck? I would like to add support for Streamdeck in the future.

There is currently no facility for this. (There is support for .srt subtitle files but that's not going very far).

Is it for live capture or displaying some data matching the timestamp of the video?

A tabular data object that reads a CSV and creates a label for each colum at the right timestamp would be great to have. Another use-case would be golf launch monitors.

I only build it for 4.94 and 4.96. Is there anything special with version 4.90?

Yes they are comparable, the frame number is converted to a time. When exporting to spreadsheet for example everything will be in seconds.

It's just that the videos with lower frame rate don't have the same amount of information, it might miss one frame with an extreme posture compared to a video with the higher frame rate, whether this is acceptable in your study is up to you. You will know that any timed event has a uncertainty of the inverse of the frame rate.

There is a JSON export now that should cover this use-case and export times in user-configured units.
You probably also need to take the slow-motion factor into account if the video was captured at high speed and stored with reduced frame rate.

Is it armed? It is disarmed by default until you arm it manually at least once by clicking on the button with the speaker icon. This is to prevent spurious recordings. There should be a color band at the top of the capture screen, it is green when audio trigger is armed, otherwise it is blue.

Please try with IDS software suite 4.96 if possible.
Get the log.txt file (see menu Help > Open log folder) and see if there are any errors during the initialization of the plugin or the connection to the camera, or send it to me at joan at kinovea dot org.

External library is fine as long as it's open source. I think this might be common enough that the classes included in .NET could go a long way though. Ideally it would handle all the server aspect and we only have to declare some routes/requests to handle and implement the corresponding functions. Probably one thing to be careful about is the threading aspect, whatever is listening to the commands/status requests will likely run in its own thread, it may or may not have to communicate with the main thread to do its job.

I recently released an update to the IDS plugin, can you tell what version of Kinovea and plugin you are using, and also what version of the IDS software suite you have installed?

Common causes of this:

1. there is not enough light and the camera uses a slower shutter speed forcing the framerate down. Double check the infobar at the top of the capture screen and see if the data rate received matches the configured frame rate.

2. there is not enough time to compress and save the images on the fly. In the infobar you will see the drop counter increasing. Try using the "retroactive" recording mode in the settings to see if it fixes the problem.
