SYMPTOMS

After you start your computer, although some conferencing cameras enumerate correctly and appear in Device Manager with no errors, they do not stream video.

Back to the top

With certain 1394 topologies at startup time, the 1394 host controller driver (1394Bus.sys/OHCI1394.sys) incorrectly chooses the wrong 1394 node as the Cycle Master. This results in no start cycle packets and, therefore, no isochronous streaming.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem so that the camera correctly streams video, follow these steps:

Unplug the conferencing camera.
Plug the camera in again.
Restart the program; this causes a bus reset and solves the problem.
