Post subject:  Wrong sequence of cameras

Hi! Yesterday i was recording some actions. Today i came up to my studio and found that the sequence of cameras was shifted forward by 1. So today i can`t record anything already because of sequence of cameras in calibration video is not the same that i have today in my recorder - it shifted forward by 1.

Note: yesterday i was installing MotioninJoy|PS Move|BT Adapter(Dongle). But i connected them into free usb port. Can it be a cause of that issue? I didn`t removed any of cables in my current PSeye configuration. I have many nodes and 2 hubs here...so it`s preferable not touch current plugged cables. So... i `ve got really good results with my yesterday calibration - 2% of occlusion on 1 camera and less than 1% on others and 1-3cm of height mistakes with cameras and process of finding cameras itself relative to others was really incredible .So i don`t want to make calibration in future anymore.

I`ll attach 2 screenhots so you can see this shifting....

Hi

iPi Recorder uses USB device path as camera identifier to remember order and other settings. So any action that shuffles these paths, like plugging new USB device etc, can effectively change the order of cameras.
However, you can reorder cameras easily on Setup stage, by dragging the images.

If you have already recorded some usable action videos with another order of the cameras, you can handle this via manual editing of a scene file. Save scene file from the calibration project. Open it with text editor. It has an XML structure. Reorder <Camera> nodes to match an action video. Save it and load to the action project.
