i just started a videoAVF plugin, that is supposed to give us live-video input on (modern) macOS.
current state: - compiles - webcam turns on (the light) - i don't get an image :-(
however, the behaviour is the same with PhotoBooth (running on Sierra), so the no-image might be a problem related to my system in general.
if anybody with a working webcam on OSX wants to try it: - get the latest git-snapshot - checkout the "videoAVF" branch - configure with all the usual flags PLUS "--enable-videoAVF" - build - run - report back
