well, it seems that the problem is not pix_video but something with fedora and the video card. the weird thing is that it stopped working when compiling gem...

In case anyone has a siimilar problem an error message I am getting is:

VIDIOCMCAPTURE: Device or resource busy

and when I ask for dimen 320 240 the image turns blue, otherwise it is black...

this is with a haupagge bt878 analogue video capture card.

best,

J

Hello,
I am trying out GEM ver: 0.91.0 'tigital' (the tarball says however 0.91.1 - from http://gem.iem.at/) and can't grab video using v4l and a hauppage camera grabbber.
The same patch does however work using 0.91 cvs

any ideas?
