Question

I’m trying to upgrade my Kinect SDK to the new version and having some troubles which I can’t figure why.

It breaks as soon as it reaches kinectSensor.SkeletonFrameReady += this.KinectAllFramesReady;

private KinectSensor kinectSensor;

public MainWindow()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    kinectSensor.SkeletonFrameReady += this.KinectAllFramesReady;
    kinectSensor.SkeletonStream.Enable(new TransformSmoothParameters()
    {
        Smoothing = 0.5f,
        Correction = 0.5f,
        Prediction = 0.5f,
        JitterRadius = 0.05f,
        MaxDeviationRadius = 0.04f
    });
    kinectSensor.Start();
}

Already solved in the comments, but an answer is better for anyone with the same problem;

The problem with the code is that it declares the kinectSensor variable, but never sets it to anything. There’s a pretty good code example at MSDN Social on how to do detection of connected/disconnected devices, but a very simple version just to get started playing around is to just use the first entry in the static KinectSensor.KinectSensors collection which will be your first connected sensor.
