most likely this is the problem.
Gem still uses QuickTime for accessing the video devices on OSX, and
afaik, yosemite has finally abandoned QT even on i386.

so i think there are a number of possibilities:

- downgrade to some older version of OSX

- convince (bribe, intimidate,...) someone with OSX knowledge and
reasonable ObjC/C++ knowledge to write an AVFoundation plugin for Gem

- upgrade to an operating system that does not deprecate another core
component of their OS whenever they make a new release¹.
