UWP BarcodeScanner Preview: CaptureElement doesn&#

问题:

My CaptureElements are showing strange behavior. When I set a instantiated MediaCapture as the CaptureElements Source and then call MediaCapture.StartPreviewAsync() the CaptureElement doesn't show anything.

I have one Application (main-app) with a functional BarcodeScanner on the LoginPage. -> Works!

Then I wanted to copy the same code to the SettingsPage with small modifications so in case of several attached cameras, the default one can be set. -> Doesn't work

Then I tried to run the main-app with the help of the remote debugger on other windows tablets with same Windows 10 Version as my machine (keep in mind, that the BarcodeScanner on the Login-Screen works on my machine). -> doesn't work

Because of these failures I copied the running code from the main-apps LoginPage to a completely new solution (lets call it test-app) with the same settings as the original one. I even experimented with referencing the same Dlls, implementing the same design pattern etc. -> doesn't work

My Machine: Win 10 Pro Version 1809 Build 17763.652

DevEnv: MS Visual Studio 2019 Pro Vers. 16.1.6

EDIT: As minimum required Windows Version I selected Build 16229 and my target Version is Build 17763 (my systems Win version)

The "Allow apps to access your camera"-Option in the Widows Settings is switched to ON, so all apps are allowed to access the camera.

                }
            }
        }

ViewModel:

public class TestViewModel: INotifyPropertyChanged {
        public static TestViewModel Instance { get; set; }

        private string _Etikett;
        public string Etikett { get { return _Etikett; } set { _Etikett = value; NotifyPropertyChanged(); } }

        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
        public void NotifyPropertyChanged ([CallerMemberName] String propertyName = "") {
            //PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));

            if (PropertyChanged != null) {
                PropertyChanged.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
            }
        }
}

I've wasted already 4 working days just to compare the solutions, the codes etc. The above code was copied from the test-app but it's mostly identical to the one on the main-apps LoginPage (except for the "if (Like_MP_PAT_UWP) {...}".

Every hint is welcome.

Thank you in advance.

回答1:

The Problem was Kaspersky Endpoint Security's "advanced Threat Protection/host intrusion prevention"-setting. It prevented ALL apps outside from our dev-harddrive (i. e. on our tablets or from our network-drive) to access the camera (Dev-Drive = "Trusted Zone").

It was necessary to reconfigure that feature in Kaspersky Endpoint Security for the whole environment (declare necessary locations/clients as a trusted zone).

Hope, this might help someone with a similar problem or at least give a hint to someone.

Just spit-balling here, but I'd suggest attempting to reduce your test to just code that controls the MediaCapture object as much as possible, as that seems to be the symptom where you describe the main issue.

After that, try lowering the SharingMode of the camera to just read-only, in case another app is using the camera with exclusive access. Also, you can reduce the pop up consent check to just the camera, and not have the microphone consent. Sometimes if you accidentally don't agree during the consent pop-up, the app will be denied access to the camera until you allow it again from the system settings (Settings -> Privacy -> Camera).

Below is a sub-optimal and boiled down version of what you described above, but all parts included. I tried to segregate your starting a barcode session from disposing things. Using the MS samples as a guide will be far more reliable than this one. Nonetheless, there's lots more trace points to add, but below has a few traces around where the MediaCapture fails, and other points in the barcode scanner enable section. Hope it helps.
