Description

Currently, the Decapod server only records the camera's USB port address once.

If the cameras are powered-off and on again, or if the camera is disconnected and reconnected, they will get new USB port addresses.

This will break the Capture server since it is using an old USB port address that is no longer valid for that camera.

Example:

Canon G10 USB port at server start: 001,015
Canon G10 USB port after power off/on: 00,017

Environments

Ubuntu 9.10, FF3.6
