I,m running TrackIR on Windows 8.1. I've had no issues for months. I updated to TrackIR 5.3 last night and the camera is no longer recognized. No LEDs come on etc.

Can you point me to a place to downgrade to 5.2?

My setup:

IMac 5k (2015)
24Gb Ram
Running on Bootcamp drive with Windows 8.1

Update: I deleted and reinstalled the new TrackIR software and rebooted. The TrackIR is working again now.

Hi, i have just updated the new software too 5.3.0.. Now the tracker does not work @ best i get a few seconds of movement then it totally crashes out. But most times it wont even turn on the camera.

Up till the software update, i have had no problems what so ever. Its been great...

Thanks looking forward for a fast patch..

Also submitted a ticket. Have the same issue as sailor. TrackIR is not detected after 5.3. Using Windows 10 HE.

Cheers!

Hi mike i sent basic specs of my p.c via e-mail.. I have just tried the tracker again and it seems fine!!! tried both the clip and clipper pro..
I am upgrading my p.c tomorrow so it will be a complete fresh install of all drivers and software.

I will keep you informed over the next couple of days. But before that i will be using the trackir5 for the next few hours.

Thanks for your support its a great piece of kit i cant do without it now
