Cannot stream RGB and IR at the same time

This explains why -a doesn't work; you can't subscribe to both the IR and RGB camera streams at the same time. This is a limitation of the driver; see this question for details about the driver. Also, take a look at sglaser's answer to this question for why rosbag -a with a Kinect is a Very Bad Idea.

I'll give openni_camera_unstable a go, that looks ideal. I could never get a -x (exclude) formulated that would please electric. Cheers, MarkC

OpenNI starts up fine, and I can use rviz, etc., but when I want to save the bags out -- OpenNI's stack dies..

First all starts ok -- but dies complaining about IR and RGB. roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch

(in another window)

rosbag record -b 2048 -O test.bag -a

When I -x out "/camera/ir(.*)" -- it dies still with an even more obscure error...

2011-02-25 10:11:39 -0500 marked best answer kinect_aux compilation errors

Hmm, I don't see how that ever would have worked. Maybe the author forgot to push a later commit. Anyhow, try changing that block of code to this, which actually compiles and seems to work (at least, data is published--I can't say if it's right or not):

// publish tilt angle and status
if (pub_tilt_angle.getNumSubscribers() > 0)
{
  std_msgs::Float64 angle_msg;
  angle_msg.data = tilt_angle/2;
  pub_tilt_angle.publish(angle_msg);
}

if (pub_tilt_status.getNumSubscribers() > 0)
{
  std_msgs::UInt8 status_msg;
  status_msg.data = tilt_status;
  pub_tilt_status.publish(status_msg);
}

Patrick,

This works, brilliant ! And thanks, that little bit of code put into context all the headers I read through trying to figure this out.

I was looking at the template types, and the 'C' stype casts -- and I got fumbled.

Great objectness, and well typed -- I think I'm going to enjoy this !

Mark

2011-02-24 14:07:38 -0500 asked a question kinect_aux compilation errors

I am having some issues getting kinect_aux to compile cleanly under diamondback.

This is the 2nd hour I have logged working with ROS, so forgive me if I've missed the obvious. I get compile errors @ lines 108 and 110 -- publish methods on comm classes I think...

I got rid of the error on line 108 by changing the double cast to float64_t -- but the error on 110 remains -- despite various attempts to cast to class happy types..

Compiler output is at the end -- here is the code localized -- if the two publish method calls are commented out -- all compiles -- but I want to change the tilt -- so thats moot.

// publish tilt angle and status -- ORIGINAL

    if (pub_tilt_angle.getNumSubscribers() > 0)
            pub_tilt_angle.publish(double(tilt_angle) / 2.);
    if (pub_tilt_status.getNumSubscribers() > 0)
            pub_tilt_status.publish(tilt_status);

// publish tilt angle and status -- FIXED 108

    if (pub_tilt_angle.getNumSubscribers() > 0)
            pub_tilt_angle.publish(float64_t(tilt_angle) / 2.);
    if (pub_tilt_status.getNumSubscribers() > 0)
            pub_tilt_status.publish(tilt_status);
