I restarted everything and finished by sudo make install. But it doesn't work here. I still get : error: [pix_video]: no video backends found! error: [pix_video]: do video for this OS ++

I don't know the new plugin method to make [pix_video] working. When i open help about [pix_video], i get : error: [pix_video]: no video backends found! ... you might be able to track this down from the Find menu.

And when i create the gem window and start render, i get : error: [pix_video]: do video for this OS

Any help will be appreciated ;)

I see a 'plugins' folder in 'src' and when i cd in 'videoV4L2' and enter : aclocal ./configure make I get : checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate ./configure: line 14318: GEM_CHECK_RTE: command not found ./configure: line 14327: syntax error near unexpected token `v4l,' ./configure: line 14327: `GEM_ARG_WITH(v4l, video input, force)' make: *** [config.status] Erreur 2

I missed something ? What i have to do to use my webcam ?

Thanx. ++

Jack

chances are, that you (jack) did install the plugins into /usr/local/lib/pd/extra/Gem and then started Pd/Gem from /home/jack/src/Gem/src (wherein a Gem.pd_linux lives)

this won't work, because Gem searches for the plugins besides the Gem binary it loaded. so if it loaded /usr/local/lib/pd/extra/Gem/Gem.pd_linux it will search in /usr/local/lib/pd/extra/Gem/ for plugins (which are named gem_<type><name>.so, e.g. gem_videoV4L2.so). if you loaded /home/jack/src/Gem/src/Gem.pd_linux, then it will search in the src path (rather than the /usr/local/...)

the simple fixes are, either:

1. do a "make install" (so everything is in

/usr/local/lib/pd/extra/Gem/) and then make sure that you are using the installed binary (e.g. by starting Pd in a new terminal) OR 2) create local copies of the plugins besides the Gem.pd_linux you want to use; i usually do symlinks:

~/src/Gem/src$ ln -s plugins/*/.libs/gem_*.so . ~/src/Gem/src$ ls Gem.* gem_*.so gem_filmAVIPLAY.so gem_filmDarwin.so gem_filmGMERLIN.so gem_filmMPEG3.so gem_filmQT.so gem_recordV4L2.so gem_filmAVI.so gem_filmDS.so gem_filmMPEG1.so gem_filmQT4L.so Gem.pd_linux gem_videoPYLON.so
