Can you try this patch (this is the IOhannes patch) with very small modifications. ++

I modified IOhannes' patch to use pix_write instead of pix_snap+pix_write and it also crashes, so it is not a difference between pix_write and pix_writer: both crash.
I'll have a look at what's different between IOhannes' and Jack's patches that may explain why one crashes and the other does not....

Ok, IOhannes' patch seems to be what I was looking for, however I have the following problems:
- The patch out-of-the-box saves unreadable tiffs just like Jack's
which OS?
Windows Vista :(
- By sending it a [file something 95( to pix_writer in order to have
jpegs saved instead of tiffs, which DOES work with [pix_write], pd crashes!!!!!
it's really the same object as [pix_write], just without the snap-code.
Then the strange thing is that Jack's patch with pix_write does not crash when saving jpegs (it saves black images but i guess it might be some trivial error in the patch) while your patch with pix_writer does.... How may I avoid the crash??? It does not crash when I send the [file ...( message but when I try to save the first snapshot after it.
Where can I find some documentation more detailed than the help patches in order to understand the mechanisms? I get quite lost when trying to understand how your patch (for example) works. I more or less understand the notion of gem chain, gem list, and, for example, separators, but I still get lost when [gemframebuffer] enters the scene, I don't even fully understand why it is needed at all in your patch, for example......
Thanks again and again
