I would like to adjust the settings of the webcam (color balance, brightness, etc.) but when I send a dialog message to pix_video, the normal QT dialog open and then pd freeze. I have to hit ^-C to quit pd. Do you have any ideas on this ?
The dialog window is a failed experiment at this point. It does work if the application is a standard 'Mac app' with the expected event loop handling code, but Pd doesn't fall into that category. We have gotten the gemwin to work like a regular window and also functioning mouse events, but nothing else. I also have not had success with using Pd messages to change the parameters or video device used by Quicktime. I have not worked on the code in a while, but it's on the todo list.
