thanks IOhannes,
i just tried to open several avi's with the example patch pix_movie.pd and pd crashes always.
some goes wrong?
we still do not know which exact(!) version of Gem you use. without that knowledge we cannot help you much.
however, you might experience codec problems. do the example movies that come with Gem (homer.avi, anim-1.mov) work? if the codec is the problem, feel free to search the archives of the pd-list; this has often been discussed.
chris clepper has recently been working on a DirectShow based film-loader which should solve a lot of problems for w32 users.

I've mentioned this before but with all versions of GEM that I've used on WinXP, AVI's crash PD. Quicktime, however, DOES work, despite something in the help file saying that it doesn't work on Win. So I've been using Quicktime movies that I find.
My only problem with it, is that there is no open source editor for quicktime movies, whereas if AVI could work I could use Virtual Dub or something similar. Seems like we really need some kind of cross-platform, high-quality video standard for open source, like OGG or FLAC for audio. In the meantime, I can't really use my own video - I'm stuck stealing whatever quicktime movies I can find on the net, which is far from ideal.

There have been improvements made recently to the Windows movie code.
