You could pull out the pidip.pd_linux and use it with a different version of Pd-extended.
Ok, I downloaded, patched and compiled pdp succesfully, however the problem is still there (pd crashes when trying to use the webcam in pdp).
However (begin new to video) I discovered that GEM also has some video processing stuff. Would that be a way to go? What *can't* I do in GEM that would be possible either pdp?
loads of things...well, i don't know; i would ask the question the other way around: does Gem/pdp/gf/... can do everything you want?
anyhow, the good thing is that there is gem2pdp (and vice versa) bridge, so you can combine the powers of the various libs.
Finally the image has distorted colors (skin is blue, for instance) when used under GEM. I tried the cam in other software (for instance skype) and it's fine. Any ideas what to do about this?
hmm, do i remember which version of Gem you are talking about?
apart from this:
- simple solution; use [pix_colormatrix] to rotate the colourspace till
the channels match (red=red, green=green, blue=blue)
- non-portable solution: in line Pixes/videoV4L.cpp:160 change the
fromBGRA() to frmRGBA() and recompile Gem.
