<h1>Moviesandbox Installation</h1>

<h2>Installing Moviesandbox on Windows</h2>
[http://moviesandbox.net Download] and unzip to a convenient place. Double click "Moviesandbox.exe". Please "Run as Administrator" if you want to use the direct-stream Kinect functionality!

<h2>Installing Moviesandbox on Mac OSX</h2>
[http://moviesandbox.net Download] and unzip to a convenient place. Double click "Moviesandbox.app".

<h2>Installing Moviesandbox on Linux (Ubuntu)</h2>
[http://moviesandbox.net Download] and unzip to a convenient place. Check permission on Moviesandbox and the tool executables like Moviesandbox/tools/msbKinect/msbKinect.
I found the permission to not be set to Read&Write and sometimes the option "Treat as Executable" is not checked. If you want to use direct-stream Kinect functionality, please run both Moviesandbox and msbKinect as Superuser!

<h1>Additional Software and Drivers </h1>

<h2>Installing OpenNI Kinect on Windows: </h2>
 1) Install unstable OpenNI (http://www.openni.org/Downloads/OpenNIModules.aspx)
 2) Install Sensor from here: https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect 
 (click "zip"on github to download, then navigate to 'Bin' Folder, double click appropriate executable)
 3) Install unstable NITE 
(http://www.openni.org/downloadfiles/opennimodules/openni-compliant-middleware-binaries/33-latest-unstable)

If the driver is installed correctly you should see "Kinect Camera" and "Kinect Motor" under the "PrimeSensor" category in the device manager.
	   If not, try to install the driver manually by running the dp-inst files from the Driver directory.

Test with Program Files/OpenNI/Samples/Release/NiViewer.exe

<h2>Installing OpenNI Kinect on Linux/Mac OSX:</h2>

Please make sure you download the appropriate version! If you have a 64bit Linux installation, please download and use the 64 bit linux OpenNI,NITE, etc. files.
Original instructions from here: https://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect
Mildly clarified and de-typoed. Will elaborate more soon.

<h3>For Mac/Linux, you will need to install the latest LibUSB.</h3>
 	Linux:
 		1) Run: sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
 		2) Run: sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
 	MaxOSX:
 		3) Install MacPorts from: 
                http://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/MacPorts-1.9.2-10.6-SnowLeopard.dmg
 		4) Run: sudo port install libtool
 		5) Run: sudo port install libusb-devel +universal

'''Note: Do not forget the +universal, it's very important!!'''
If you're previously already installed libusb-devel then use "sudo port uninstall libusb-devel" and reinstall it again with the +universal flag.

<h3>Installing the actual drivers:</h3>

1) Install unstable OpenNI (http://www.openni.org/Downloads/OpenNIModules.aspx)

Run the NiViewer sample (in your OpenNI/Samples/Bin/xxx-Release/ folder) to make sure depth & image streams are working.
