hello,<br><br>it&#39;s a bit out of topic, but I recently noticed strange behaviors of [pix_video] on differents macbookpro running with osx moutain lion and latest release of pd-extended. <br>For [pix_video] [dialog( make pd crash (not always) when trying to switch between different video devices<br>

(actually we were unable to change the video device, ant the default one was not always the built-in camera) <br>I noticed on one of the computers that [enumerate( does work only when no usb camera where plugged in<br>As for pix_record [codeclist( didn&#39;t output any codec list and we couldn&#39;t set any codec either<br>

<br>hope this help<br>stéfan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2013/3/5 Alexandros Drymonitis <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:adrcki@gmail.com" target="_blank">adrcki@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<div dir="ltr">Hmm, I do have the latest version but I guess I didn&#39;t check the help patch thoroughly...which is there to give insight. I&#39;m sorry, should have checked better. The [device $1( did it eventually. Thanks a lot.<br>

<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Don&#39;t really get it. I&#39;m sending [enumProps( to [pix_video], but if I do that before anything else I get the following error message: [pix_video]: cannot enumerate properties without a valid video-device<br>





</div><div>If I set the desired camera via [dialog( I get nothing...<br></div>What I wanna do is use a PS3 eye camera for a live performance, but I&#39;d rather use Pd -nogui. The only way though I can choose this camera is to first create and render a [gemwin], destroy it and then send [dialog( to [pix_video], which won&#39;t be possible without the gui.<br>





</div>So, to put my initial question in other words, how is it possible to set a camera other than the built in, without the gui?<br></div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<div>Try sending [enumProps( and [pix_video] should send all readable and writeable properties.</div>

<div dir="ltr"><div>With midi or audio you can send Pd a message on load which you get either with [get-midi-dialog] and [get-audio-dialog] or by connecting [r pd] to [print], then go to midi/audio settings and press ok. This gives you the message you have to send so you can use these settings immediately (say, if you use pd -nogui). <br>








</div>What about using a camera other than the built-in? You can set that by sending [dialog( to [pix_video], but is it possible to set it by sending Pd a message? If so, where do you get this message from?<br></div>
