i've run into big troubles trying to use an usb cam with either gridflow or pdp, but it doesn't want to work in both. i wonder if i am doing big mistakes or what combination of drivers and cams work with gridflow.
There are problems with pdp and the pwc driver. pdp was designed with the old closed-source driver and does not work properly with latest open source version. The solution is to remove the pwc-specific code from the pdp source and then it will be treated like any other webcam. Details in this post: http://elists.resynthesize.com/pd-list/2005/07/1505225/
I have a Quickcam Pro 4000 myself and had great success using it with pdp after making this change.
thank you very much. you helped me a lot. it is working now in pdp. for me it wasn't necessary to change the code. i just downloaded the newest release of pdp (0.12.5-test-7) and i used the option '--disable-pwc' when configuring.
cheers roman
