Dear list,
i reactivate an old patch with pd 51.2 and Gem 0.94 on OSX 10.12.6. Super nice that Gem works with the 64bit version of Pd nowadays!! I have a problem with [pix_record] testing with the help patch, i get this error:
[GEM:recordQT4L] couldn't initialize codec [GEM:recordQT4L] unable to initialize QT4L
pressing [codeclist( does not give anything. pressing [codec 3( gives [pix_record]: invalid codec# 3 (0..0)
Should i change the backend? If so, how? Should i install QT4L on OSX??
Many thanks in advance,
Jonas
mimimi... Nobody using Gem 0.94 with [pix_record] on OSX?

simply put: there's no [pix_record] backend that works on macOS/64bit.
the QT4L backend is only a red herring. iirc, Gem has a hardcoded default that attempts to load this plugin (that's why you even notice that such a plugin exists)
but, "QT4L" is an abbreviation for "QuickTime for Linux". i don't know whether you can install it on macOS.
