Need help with opentrack2.3 X&Z axes

(Above video should easily explain my problem, please note I was only moving my head left to right.)

 

I just updated from 2.2 to 2.3, and whenever I turn my head from left to right(Yaw), there's a certain point where my X(lean L&R) and Z(zoom) would start moving as well. This sort of happened in 2.2, but simply adding dead zone solved the issue completely. I did that in 2.3 too, however It won't work due to the how huge the X&Z movement is. It basically reached the peak of my setting. 

 

Everything else is just fine as long as I don't use X&Z. Thus, I have a feeling that It might have to do with the new 'camera offset' setting under in the option tab. Cause my PS3 Eye's mounted on my speakers(Left side) next to the monitor. I have no idea how those offset numbers work, but I tried playing around a little with no luck. 

 

 I'm out of idea, any help?

Have you tried adjusting the settings for the Accela filter?  Also, try it with the "Use camera center as translation offset" unchecked. I have to take a look at my set-up to refresh my memory on using the camera offset.

 

(EDIT)

Ok. To adjust the camera offset uncheck "Center at Startup", start OT, and open the options, camera tab. In the Camera Offset section, adjust the numbers to bring the octopus back to center, don't worry about the numbers, just keep looking straight. Once done click OK, stop OT, enable "Center at Startup" again, re-start OT and see what happens. 

 

There used to be a link for instructions on using the camera offset but it was removed from the wiki. One last thing if this doesn't work, post another video but make your movements a lot slower.

Another thought. Are you using the same ini file from 2.2? With the new version you should start out with a completely new config file.

I accidently discovered that it's due to the calibration in pointracker setting. The instructions initially said that 'At start, move your head up as if pitching up', I skipped this one step, continued and fixed it. 

 

But thanks for the help tho!

 

Anyway, do you have any recommendation for the Accela filter setting? I normally don't touch those stuff that I don't know when It's running properly.

Here are my accela settings. They are pretty much the default. Sometimes the sensitivity settings can be useful. Anyway, glad you got it sorted out.
