Hi, 

you can use [pix_video] with the VLC backend instead.

But note that VLC have a lot of latency with network camera.

VLC backend works on Linux, Mac OSX and Windows (but only when build with MinGW), see [1].

Instead, I would suggest to use a Linux box with a gstreamer pipeline that redirect the stream to a V4L2loopback device and then open the stream in Gem with the pix_video"s V4L2 backend.

You can have a look to my blog article [2] where I detailed how I use a Raspberry Pi to stream live video to Gem.

Dear list,

I would like to have 6 full HD IP cams on a local network projected live stream via 6 computers on the same network. Is there any solution than pix_vlc? If no is pix_vlc already part of pd-extended or I have to compile it from source? What are the basic commands for the pix_vlc object? Is there somewhere a full help file to it?

Sorry for asking, but I used it some years ago last time, and it was a pain i the a** to get all the dependences and make it work at the end on debian.

Now I would use mac, windows and linux, as it is hard to find 6 computers with the same parameters in a gallery :)

Thanks for any hints in advance:

Popesz
