Recommendations on the Camera Connection
Most computers have both front and back USB2.0 ports location. We do not
recommend using the front USB2.0 port of your computer since it is not directly
connected to the computer's USB Host Controller.
+++
As shown on the picture above, the front USB2.0 port is connected to the USB Host
Controller by long cables inside computer, meanwhile back USB2.0 port is connected
directly to its controller at the back panel of computer.
So, when connecting the camera to the front USB2.0 port the device might not work
properly. We recommend to use the back USB2.0 port to avoid problems with the
camera work (see the picture below).
Note: Design and configuration of the front USB2.0 port location shown on the pictures above might differ from yours.
The pictures' goal is only to show how the front USB2.0 port is connected to its controller
