Check the color of the dots in the lower right corner..they should be all green...if you are getting any red dots there,something is wrong in your setup

They are red.
But the reddots [5mm] on the screen are the 3 IR-leds, they are moving with my movement, but no skull movement.
Help me please

then it should be easy... you should always have white crosses over red dots...crosses indicate that dots are recognizes by freetrack...

go to "point size" and here you must try diferent values...

min point diameter should be around 1mm-3mm
max point diameter should be 5mm and bigger

it means that  light source smaller than 3mm and bigger than 5mm WILL NOT be recognized as tracking dots

I think that in your case values should be something like this:

min point diameter :2mm
max point diameter:10mm

FT 2.2 as it is, does not support TrackIr cams...

I use min-1, max-16 setting on size and it works for me. (webcam) IF the max size is too  small FT can lose the points if you turn your head quickly. This is because the points can show streched. (too big for max size)

Edit:
Just read your post on other thread.. i think you should try to make your dots smaller (threshold?) they look too big and "unformed" to be accurate.. and / or look again the point sizes. make them min 1, max 25 for starters and see if theres any change. ....Then there is the usb port settings... bandwidth, priority... maybe even power management.... i might be going too far but if these help...
