Re: "The device stream has stopped" lockup across computers

Could you please uninstall current and try the new 0.9.56 to see if that helps.

Martin,
My Surface Pro is up-to-date on all updates so I am assuming it has the latest USB drivers.
I tried disabling the USB power management and that did not help either.

One thing I forgot to mention is that even calibration done via the TET UI fails occasionally with the "Device stream stopped" message in the log file. The TET UI just hangs after that.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

If you can wait a day or two we will release version 0.9.56 which could improve the situation. Otherwise checking/updating drivers for the USB controller can help, also disabling power-saving state on the USB is a hot-tip. This issue seems to occur for different reasons so it's difficult to provide one solution to solve it.

Martin,
I am having the same issue with my Microsoft Surface Pro (64-bit) running Windows 8.1 Pro O/S. TET stops working every 3 minutes or so , but the LED lights stay on on the tracker. (Note that I leave the TET UI running in the background as I connect to the server via my own program at the same time.)

Is there a workaround for this (other than trying out the beta firmware)? Thanks.

Sorry to hear about your troubles.

Some of the platforms mentioned are unexpected, we've been running countless hours of demo on the Surface Pro 2.

I would be curious to know what would happen if you re-flashed or updated the firmware. I have sent you a PM with beta version of our flasher tool. Seems to do wonders on stream-stopped issues on Windows (on the limited set we've tested so far).

It's beta - so not without hiccups, computer skills helps (i.e windows device manager).

Let me know.

"The device stream has stopped" lockup across computers

2015-03-04T22:03:44+02:00

I have an Eye Tribe tracker with firmware 293 and SDK 0.9.49 x86. I have tested this on three different Windows 8.1 Pro x64 computers, including a mini-ITX Intel computer, Intel NUC, and Surface Pro 2. Each computer experiences a lockup of the eye tracker after approximately 3-5 minutes.

Symptoms:
There's no particular usage that causes the lockup. The Eye Tribe server may simply be running with TET tracker connected or I may attempt or complete calibration before the lockup occurs. A symptom of the lockup is that the red LEDs will not turn off and the Eye Tribe server will not notice if the device is subsequently disconnected. The log shows "The device stream has paused" followed by "The device stream has stopped". If I exit the Eye Tribe server (clicking the x in the console window), there is nothing more added to the log.

I believe this issue may be more prevalent than described in the Known Issues post (viewtopic.php?f=9&t=232). It also seems similar to the post on Issues with the 0.9.49 Windows SDK (viewtopic.php?f=9&t=398), although I have reproduced the issue on three computers every time without any success running TET tracker for longer than a few minutes.

Here are the specific devices I tested on. These all use integrated USB 3.0 connections on the motherboards. I have tested on all USB 3.0 ports possible with no other USB 3.0 devices connected.
- ASUS H87I-PLUS motherboard
- Intel NUC D54250WYKH (D54250WYB board)
- Surface Pro 2

Please advise on possible workarounds. Thanks!
