maybe push "as is"?
question: could Gem plugins be developed independently of Gem main repo?
meaning right now the whole repo is forked to work on one plugin which seems overkill. would it make sense to split plugins from main repo, work on it (can this be built independent of Gem?), push, and then main repo is treated as submodule...
just an organizational thought which may make it easier for others to contribute other than dan?

It’s not on my Github fork yet as it *works* but there is a memory leak, so Pd crashes after about a minute of playback. Should be a simple fix, but I didn’t find it yet and there may be a workaround that requires a partial rewrite.

unaware this was working. code pushed to github? i would be interested in testing but unfortunately have no time (or skills) for this kind of dev work.
i am surprised that you are the only one working on this... shame because it seems if a group was organized to complete it would actually get done.
thanks for the work you have put in

GEM needs to be updated to use a different video backend as QuickTime is no longer available. This has been a known issue for years...
In the meantime, there is no solution but to downgrade to 10.11 as QT is no longer present on 10.12.
In the longer term, I have a working pix_film using the newer framework, AVFoundation, ported from OpenFrameworks but there are some performance issues I haven’t figured out yet. Once that’s ironed out I’ll port the video grabber next.
It would be nice to get some development help on this, but it looks like in the end it’s up to me. Note, this is not a high priority for me right now.
