Setting up Playstation Eye

Adapted from this handy guide.

  1. Insert PS Eye into an USB 2.0 port or above. Should appear as 'USB Camera-B4.09.24.1' or something similar in device manager.
  2. Run Zadig and install libusb-win32 onto 'USB Camera-B4.09.24.1' (Interface 0 on my machine)
    • Don't install onto 'Interface 1', this will already have usbaudio installed.
    • If no devices appear for installation tick "Options->'List All Devices'"
  3. Test the performance of the camera with 'test_camera.exe'.

If there is visible tearing/laggy footage:

  • Try installing the WinUSB driver with Zadig instead.
  • Ensure the Eye is the only USB device connected to the USB hub if possible.
