hello,

no I don't find a solution,
I think maybe to encode in .mjpg could do the trick
(or to force to using QTsupport as Iohannes suggest)

but I don't have anymore this windows machine to test

Hi there Stéfan,

did you manage to get through this ?
i'm sort of having the same problem here...
trying to play video files on a Vista machine with pix_film support for both
DirectShow and Quicktime.
when i try to play a video encoded on Photo-JPG on pix_film, the video playback
gets really slow. When I make it fullscreen, the CPU load goes over 200%.

Does anybody knows why is that happening ?
I have tried Apple Photo-Jpg and Photo JPEG as encoder for pix_film.
the movie is a .MOV.

thanx a lot for your attention,


Fernando Krum.

thanks for clarifying this

when I create pix_film I have this in the pd-console:
pix_film:: directshow support
pix_film:: quicktime support

when I open a .mov file (photo-jpeg) I have this:

[pix_filmNEW]: opening movie.mov with format 1908
Trying DirectShow
error: Unable to connect filters -2147220969
[pix_filmNEW]:  ...
[pix_filmNEW]: loaded file: movie.mov with 1266 frames (720x405) at 1266.000000 fps


how could i force pix_film to use Quicktime  ?


best,
stefan

where did you read this?
Pd-extended currently does not build Gem at all on w32, it takes the
official binary release, which includes QuickTime support.

you can easily check whether yuo do have QuickTime support if you have a
look what's printed to the pd-console when you first create a [pix_film]
object.


anyhow, the problem you probably have is, that DirectShow is able to
open the film quite well, so QuickTime is never tried.
you have to force [pix_film] to use the QuickTime backend.
