I did not mean my mail to be a criticism. Yes the README.build is very clear.
Perhaps I am not knowledgeable enough to be an alpha version user, but I have been so dying to get a film or movie object working under linux that I wanted to jump on this opportunity. And let Iohannes know there is the desire for this work.
If I can be of any help getting these objects working easily for as many users as possible. Please let me help.
Perhaps this is my lack of knowledge but I still can't get this version to compile with the heroine warrior libs... It blocks on the libdv stuff. I tried compiling just pix_film, or pix_movie but this is a bit over my head :( . I'll have to read more on how to compile an external for pd.
I'll be watching this thread with great excitement.

Which version of libdv should I use? I did not find this in the Docs.
IOannes might be asleep now (he spent yesterday helping me compile Gem, I think I wore him out ;) so I'll repeat what he advised me. Yes, you want the Heroine Warrior libquicktime stuff; IOannes also suggested using libmpeg3 instead of libmpeg, and there are some code bugs that he may have fixed now in the sources. Also, the configure script needs a little more attention. But remember, this version is an alpha release.
I've tested his examples for pix_film and pix_movie: pix_film worked great, but I had problems with pix_movie that I'll investigate today.
