Absolutely and thank you for responding so quickly! I am on my computer now and can make any changes you suggest! Here is the screenshot, I have disabled all firewalls and antivirus programs, I am also using windows 7 home premium.

The settings looks correct.

-Did you select the DAZ model and click on "Select Character" button as in 18sec of this video?

-Is the DAZ model version 4.x?

-On the Parameters tab of DAZ, does it have Morphs|Expression conrols? Default DAZ model might not have necessary morphs installed.

-Have you successfully streamed before on any other PC?

-Setting up streaming for fullbody might be easier, do you have license for fullbody version of Arena?

I've made an advancement in my progress, I was able to set the morph settings for the v4 but my initial problem was that it was not streaming like it was shown. During the video, so that's why I was convinced I was doing something wrong. It was only until I went through the whole marker v4 setup without any visual clue in daz3d that it was streaming did I figure out it was indeed recording morph positions, it simply was not streaming live the initial setup - is thisbug in 1.6.1?

Yes to all your questions except streaming on another pc, btw.

Also I had to open these ports on my router! I would have never known that.

Well I was able to get Daz3D to link to Arena (without realtime update during configuration) but with the blinking dot problem I'm still having it's little more then quiet entertainment and not very usable as a facial capture method.

Did you calibrate with 3 marker wand or single marker wand?
Can you send support@naturalpoint.com your capture files(.pt2 and .fct files)?
