It is using the player segmentation data, it’s just that you have to turn on Skeleton Tracking to get it – I’m not actually using the skeleton joints to generate the mask. My next strategy for the mask will be a screen-space edge detection on the depth image to pick out objects that stand out from the background. Haven’t really thought about how I’ll get it to determine wether an object is human or not, but I think some sort of centroid tracking could be used to follow objects once they are detected. I’m thinking of putting it up on codeplex or GitHub in the near future, but I’m not quite there yet.

You may also be aware that this can be achieved quite easily using OpenNI and the hacked Primesense driver for the Kinect – since those libraries provide the segmentation data and do the mapping for you, it’s an easy task to get the “green screen” effect. The resulting image is pretty low res though, as the open source libraries only support image capture at up to 640×480 – I’m hopeful that something using the official SDK will give a better result.

You’re quite right, in fact I found that out myself a little while ago. I was unable to start another session if the application closed unexpectedly, which was quite odd for a logging framework, eventually I found my typo, and then everything started to work properly.

Thanks,

Quick ?. In your start method, you have:

ULONG status = StartTrace(&(this->loggerHandle), this->logFileName, this->loggerInfo);

The prototype for StartTrace is:
ULONG StartTrace(
__out PTRACEHANDLE SessionHandle,
__in LPCTSTR SessionName,
__inout PEVENT_TRACE_PROPERTIES Properties
);

In your version, shouldn’t you be passing the session name instead of the logfile name?

Thanks
