I am getting an error message in my Reality Capture projects. I have a yellow triangle warning for all images added, stating ‘the camera is not in the sensor database’. All online discussion of this issue seems to suggest only one solution that seem to work in all cases, involving editing of the xml file to add a missing camera.
I’ve tried this and it does not work for me and furthermore the cameras I am using are already listed in the database.
I get error warnings for both ‘Canon Canon EOS 500D’ and ‘SONY DSC-RX100’. I have not tried other cameras. I have checked that it is not a wording issue, and that ‘Model’ name listed under ‘Selected input’ is exactly the same as that in the sensors database.
At a guess, given the cameras are clearly included, it is as if the software is just not looking in the right place for the sensors database. It is located in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RealityCapture
it lists
<camera model=“Canon Canon EOS 500D” ccdWidth=“22.3”/>
<camera model=“SONY DSC-RX100” ccdWidth=“13.2”/>
One thing that occurred to me was that it might be because my version of the software is from Steam but I previously had a demo and maybe there’s some confusion happening between the installations - although I have uninstalled the demo, and confirmed there are no other sensor xmls on the C drive. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it doesn’t seem to help.
In any case I can produce models but I thought that perhaps they might be less accurate than they should be with known parameters.
Any ideas?
