Hi Tamas,

Thanks for reporting the bug. This bug has just been fixed. The problem is
with the TrackerToolObserverToOpenIGTLinkRelay class.

"Uninitialized variable m_FramesPerSecond, causing failure in release mode
in Visual C++, as all uninitialized memory are set to zero in release mode"

Please follow this link to see the fix:
