Getting Error : ids_core.IDSTimeoutError: Timeout of 3000ms exceeded

hi there,
im trying to use the ids camera UI 148xLE-M with python. But everytime, after executing img, meta = cam.next() im getting following error msg:

ids_core.IDSTimeoutError: Timeout of 3000ms exceeded

any ideas what to do?
the camera works fine with ueyecdemo

Did you start image capture before trying to retrieve the next image? (cam.continuous_capture = True)

Unfortunately, we were never able to test this module with any USB cameras (or anything, besides the one GigE camera we had), so something may well be missing. I have also not used this module in over a year.

I'm getting the same error with a UI-2230SE-C.

Hello @prattmic ,
I tried your release in a Raspberry Pi 3. Unfortunately, I am getting the same error. I tried with python 2.7 and 3.4, IDS SDK version ARMv7 Cortex-A/ARMv8 (32-bit) (4.81.00 ARM Linux HF). The raspbian release is "Jessie". I have a GigE and a USB 2.0 cameras. Both have the same issue.
I know its been a while, but any help would be highly appreciated.
Best

Hi @Qpczyk,
No, I didn´t manged to make it work. I am currently exploring with C++ in codeblocks.

Ok, here is how I made it work:
-OC CPU to 1GHz
-Increase GPU memory to 224Mb
-Increase size of shared memory to 224Mb

Although Im not satisfied with effects so far, there is no documentation of API for python.

@cantru , Did you menaget to run it in C++?
