Hi Kwageyman;
I found the server in the examples under ‘remote control’. Seems to match what the ‘desktop’ program is looking for using the USB:COM interface. Saved the example as main using the tool from the IDE to cam drive. Restarted the cam. went back to the master program ran it again to find the openMV cam. Fed in the name of the COM port to connect to. In this case COM8. Nothing doing.
I am using pygame 2.1.2, pyserial 3.5 on the destop app. Seems to run no exceptions.
Are you sure that your example is working?

PS, one of the 2 remaining cameras I have is refusing to let me save as Main.py. Any suggestions?
Hi Kwageyman;
Wrestled it down to a bad interaction with pygame. Looks like it connects because the cam LED goes from blue to green blinks. But then the game display flakes out. Pygame init seems to go well, but the call to pygame.display.set_mode(). Crashes out totally. Running 2.1.2. Any spec on what version is good?

PS re-imaged the bricked one and it came back.
I don’t really know. I’m able to use the latest version on windows and it just works. Try running some of the pygame examples and see if there is an issue with your system.
