Libfreenect Python Failed to claim camera interface

[tarunprakash]

I am using kinect v1 on macOS High Sierra with libfreenect for python. I am trying to access the depth camera feed on the kinect with

array,_ = freenect.sync_get_depth()

This never used to give me problems before, but now, everytime I run the program, I am greeted with this error:

Failed to claim camera interface: LIBUSB_ERROR_ACCESS
Error: Invalid index [0]
Error: Can't open device. 1.) is it plugged in? 2.) Read the README

However, if I run freenect-glview in terminal, there is no problems, and everything works fine. I have tried replugging the device, but it doesn't seem to work.

Same here.

Any resolution to this?
