Oh, and word of advice. If you're using a Windows virtual machine, beware, as the graphics inlet might not be able to collaborate with the Kinect display. That's why I had to switch to doing it for the Mac. | Oh, and word of advice.

1) I'm not sure if this is the right place to "post", but I'm wondering how you can use the lib-freenect library to stream from two Kinects at once. I tried running glview.exe with a parameter (glview.exe 1 or 2 ...) but it's saying the device cannot be opened.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks, Paul

Allecyte: What kind of computer? There are completely different step-by-step procedures for both, as I have learned the hard way. However, surprisingly enough, I found it to be a lot easier on the Mac, as everything could have been done using nothing but Terminal commands. But nevertheless, I did have to do a lot of hunting for the right instructions. Errors arose, and had to have been dealt with accordingly. Oh, and word of advice.
