Quick debug: use the Kinect Azure Viewer app in the SDK to look at the IR, depth, RGB streams etc. With that, I found that the best textured pointcloud was from the NFOV binned depth mode, the 1080p video mode (30fps), and with automatic exposure & white balance disabled.
No need to build on windows, the SDK is installed in C:/Program Files/Azure Kinect SDK v1.4.0/sdk
Minimal test:
uint32_t count = k4a_device_get_installed_count();
