hey it works! nice!

just compiled videoavf branch. little green light turns on when opening 00.SimpleVideo.pd example. when rendering toggle is clicked window appears and live video is displayed.

a couple things:

- live video capture shows blue channel only

- pd console gives "clear(): unimplemented)" error

- with example patch if I click rendering toggle gem window closes and green light turns off. the only way to get live image back is either reload patch or click rendering toggle THEN send [device 0{ message.

- with dialog message I get "[pix_video]: no dialog for current backend"

cheers

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
