Win access violation on sending a report about pywinusb HOT 2 CLOSED

I just uploaded a couple of examples for setting data. One of them does it by both using usages and a redundant raw data setting. Both tested working with Windows 7 64 bits, using Python 64 bits also.

Raw data setting has the disadvantage that you need to know the report binary format, so you are right, you need to know your usage, how? there are some already standardized (http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/Hut1_11.pdf), if you actually see vendor pages (values starting at 0xff00) you'd need to have some vendor specific documentation (maybe you could ask for technical support).

Otherwise, use the show_hids.py example and capture the output to a text file, use your prefered editor to find out what capabilities are available in your system, browse to your target device for some hints.

If you are reverse engineering a device, use a USB sniffer (like in a filter driver) that captures the transactions to a file, then once identified the HID reports, use a script to set the raw data and know what are the HID usages affected.

For business you might want to buy a commercial USB protocol analyzer (software or hardware).

Anyway, please try the new examples and let me know if they break on your machine, it would be good to try them on other machine, or better, share your script and some data :-)

Thanks a lot Rene!
