Hi Adrien,
Do you get a green screen when you try and load the quicktime file? I never tried encapsulating in Mov, just did a .qtl file (quicktime pro can export it) If you are getting a green frame I think you just need to tell Gem to load the next frame when its available:
[pix_film]X[t f]
So the right outlet of pix_film goes to [t f] which connects to the frame (right) inlet of pix_film.
I can't remember if you need to send [auto 1< to pix_film, I don't think you do need to.
good luck.

Hi here,
I'm working on a live stage performance mixing juggling and computer arts, I've already worked a little bit with gem. For a project using a 100 fps IP-camera (check http://www2.elphel.com/index.html) , I'm looking for a way to use a streamed video in gem. Although I know it would be better to use pdp for this kind of stuff, most of the patch is already done in GEM (with a 25 fps DV cam), and it would be a pain in the ass to make it from scratch in pdp. The problem is : I can encapsulate the stream in a .mov file in order to make QT think it is a local file, but the pix_film object is unable to load the frame in it (while QT, Quartz Composer or other QT-based application can do it).
any ideas of a solution ? I'm using a PowerBook G4 with OS 10.4.5, Pd-0.39-2 from Miller and GEM-CVS (11/05)
To give an idea of what we are looking to do, here is a video of the patch with the DV-Cam http://video.adrienm.net/LaboReTime.avi
