thanks a lot for the answers, so it seems that one can get both working. I might be going for the gem solution as it doesnt require compilation.

Hi there,
I am looking for a way to do video input (from a DV cam) and processing on OSX. Before starting with this I wanted to ask what the Mac people use for this, and what would be the best solution.
hey gunter,
...for GEM, [pix_video] works fine with dv signals, either with a camera plugged in directly, or a dazzle hollywood dv bridge (which I use for converting older Hi8 camera signals)...the only limitations that come to mind are that we've never been able to fully integrate the sequence grabber control panel, which means we can't adjust brightness, contrast, etc., in the process of actually grabbing the data...perhaps some day...
...for pdp, pidip has basically a clone of [pix_video] called [pdp_ieee1394]...there's a major limitation to the version in cvs that has the destructor disabled, which means you have to restart pd to use it after the object is destroyed...I have a fix, and have offered yves the patch, but despite his claims of openness, he has declared me not "open-source", for whatever that's worth ;-\
