Allied Vision Manta GigE camera not working

Hi,

I’ve seen at least one other post on this forum relating to problems with Allied Vision cameras in TD. I just received a Manta 158C and it appears to show similar problems.

The camera works fine in the Vimba viewer and is detected by TD but I get no image and TD slows to a crawl as soon as I activate the VideoDeviceIn. I’ve also tried directly specifying the IP address as opposed to selecting the auto detected device in the drop down menu. No success either.

Any experience in getting these cameras to work in TD?

Thanks!

Moving to bugs

A few updates:

  • Updated to latest TD stable build with same result (Windows).
  • Not sure if TD makes any use of the Vimba driver by Allied Vision so uninstalled it and replaced it by earlier version called AVT. Same result.
  • Tried on different computer with the same result as well.
  • Reinstalled latest Vimba drivers and tried TD 088 build 62610 and the Allied Vision (GigE) Video In works this time but still freezes latest stable 099.

Thanks for the detailed reports. Unfortunately we do not have any Allied Vision cameras to test with. If you would be willing to lend us one we could fix the bug. If you are able to do that and interested please contact us via email.

I am having the same issue. Has this been solved yet?
