I just wanted to confirm that this is still an unresolved issue for me (I made the error of creating a github issue when I should have posted here first).

Has anyone ever come across such a problem? Or can anyone suggest what can I can do to further debug this issue?

I have 2 PointGrey Flea3 USB3 cameras connected an Ubuntu 17.04 server system. I did not compile the viewer or gstreamer aspects of Aravis as I do not require this functionality in my system.

I can successfully use |arv-tool-0.6| to list all of the features of both of my cameras and I can use a simple custom program (using Aravis) to display basic information about the USB devices (id, serial number, vendor). I am also able to compile and run |arvexample.c| and it seems to open a camera and print out a frame rate of 60Hz.

However, when I try to open my cameras from my multi-threaded c++ application I am unable to claim the usb interface for either of my cameras. Here is debugginh the output from Aravis (I added some extra debug statement to help pinpoint the issue).

While the application is multi-threaded, object creation and camera connection is all happening inside a single thread.

All applications that I have described are run from the same user, so I do not think there is an issue with permissions. There also does not seem to be any other services/programs using the cameras either.

Can you provide any help with debugging this issue?
