Hi, we try to follow all the tutorials but the fact that they use old version of the software is not helping really much new bye as us.
whats the correct pipeline to start capturing?

1) we can reuse the calibration i guess just by doing open data?

2) we need to set the facial wizard everytime we do a new capture? even if with same actor?

3) we can simple put the marker then record data? or we need to go first on the facial wizard then we can go on doing all takes with same actor? how this works preciselly?

sorry for the dumb question but we cant figuring it out
thanks for any help

Hello -

If the cameras have not moved since the calibration was performed, you can reuse a calibration by loading the calibration file.

The facial wizard should be used every time the markers are reapplied to configure the software to know the template. If a marker falls off, moves, or the headband moves, you will need to recreate the template.

Correct. After recording data, right click on the take and select "Trajectorize"
