Hi all
I downloaded GEM from cvs (2003-11-15) and pix_video doesn't work for my saa7134 (V4L2) capture-card. IIRC it worked well in some 0.87 cvs snapshots, and after that (0.87 release) it never worked again for more than 10 seconds. When using pix_video I get a lot of *GEM: pix_video: do video for this OS* in the console and messages doesn't work :
error: pix_video: no method for 'channel' error: pix_video: no method for 'mode' error: pix_video: no method for 'norm'
When using pix_videoLinux with pix_rgba (because I get *error: Gem: pix object cannot handle RGB image*) I get the following:
cap: name LifeView FlyVIDEO2000 type 47 channels 4 maxw 720 maxh 480 minw 48 minh 32
picture: brightness 32896 depth 17332 palette 4
vcap.channels 4 channel 0 name Television type 1 flags 1 channel 1 name Composite1 type 2 flags 0 channel 2 name Composite2 type 2 flags 0 channel 3 name S-Video type 2 flags 0 buffer size 3981312, frames 3, offset 0 1327104
frame 0 0, format 4, width 128, height 64
GEM: pix_video: Opened video connection F vmmap 832E0CC
but no image , only a white rectangle. I tried sending the following messages : channel 2, norm NTSC, mode NTSC 2 , driver 0 , device 0 also I tried pix_videoNEW but still no image. My capture card is working well with pdp, so in the meantime I'm using pdp_v4l -> pdp2gem -> GEM. but pdp2gem eats all my cpu. I hope someone knows what is happening here. Thanks for your time and excuse my confuse mail.
PD. the new Pixes objects are awesome !!!
