I'm stuck at exactly the same point. I don't have much experience with compliling and linking but the cause seemed to be that the provided libusb-1.0.lib is not compatible with the visual studio compiler. I got it working by replacing the one in pseyepy\ext\win\lib with the one from libusb-1.0.26-binaries\VS2015-x64\dll\ inside the archive that can be downloaded here and I also needed the .dll from there.

[NikTechT]

Can you explain what exactly you did to get it working?

Can you explain what exactly you did to get it working?

If I remember correctly the first step was to fix some print functions that were incompatible with my python version and then just what I described above. What kind of problems are you having?

[NikTechT]

Where exactly did you put the dll? I get the error dll not found when running example script: DLL load failed while importing cameras

[XenoTheDragon]

I put it directly into the directory of the installed python script but you usually can also put it into the system32 folder.
