LabVIEW Exe file doesn't have video output even though it detects the camera

Hello,

 

I recently encountered a problem where my executable file doesnt have video output; it detects the camera and but no output. It was working before but I recently updated the drivers to a newer once versions and this happened right after. Am I missing a driver or my exe file is not compatible with the new drivers? NI MAX detects the camera and I am able to grab the video. 

 

I want to clarify that I do not have the source code for this executable file. I made my own version of the same executable file, it also doesnt output any video. I am blaming on the drivers but I am not very familiar with video drivers for Labview. Furthermore, after I updated some of the drivers, I suddenly needed "PXI Platform Services 25.0 Run-Time". Before downloading the newest version of this driver, I wasnt able to "Grab" or "Snap" a video from NI MAX. 

 

I uploaded the older drivers and new drivers for comparison and my video output. Is there anyone who could shine a light on this issue?

Guessing slightly based on your images...

 

The executable was probably made with LV 2015 which is compatible with your IMAQdx 15.0 drivers. If your application is using NI Vision drivers to grab the image, IMAQdx is what is responsible for it.

 

It looks like you installed LV 2025 and new IMAQdx drivers (you have to expand the IMAQdx in your list to see what version). The IMAQdx drivers are only compatible with ~4 years of LabVIEW, so you'd only be able to go up to IMAQdx 19.0 or so and maintain compatibility with a LV 2015 executable.

 

You will have to uninstall the new vision drivers, and go back to an older version to get the application working again.

Actually IMAQdx 18.5 would be the latest you could use. You can find it in the attached compatibility table which I downloaded from here:
