Well I had tried the  pix_2pdp route already. This is what I get - please see below. Had a look inside the Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8 OSX package and there is the pix_2pdp.pd_darwin object in extras. Is this easy to fix?

As well what would be the most straightforward way to replace the quicktime library? I do have a copy of pdp_pidip_osx.tar.gz.

/Applications/PureData/Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/pix_2pdp.pd_darwin: dlcompat: dyld: /Applications/PureData/Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../bin/pd Undefined symbols:
/Applications/PureData/Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/pix_2pdp.pd_darwin undefined reference to
 pix_2pdp
... couldn't create

Thanks

I think that this only applies to bytes/row, so the height may be
anything, and then, there are special exemptions for width: for YUV422 it
has to be multiple of 8 and for RGBA it has to be multiple of 4.
