After learning how to use [pix_record] (see the thread "Saving Gem output as video file on MacOSX ?") I find, as did Marius Schebella, who helped me, that it gets the colors confused. Specifically, red becomes cyan, green becomes magenta, but blue stays blue. Ideas?

Maybe you could use [pix_write] instead of [pix_record] ? Something like :
[gemhead 99] | [t b a] |/ [pix_snap] | [pix_write]
Then send a [auto 1( message to the first inlet of [pix_write] : each
frame should be write on you HD (you can specify a path).

It's worth trying ... I guess. It has the obvious disadvantage of saving hundreds or even thousands of files which some other program then has to convert into a movie. So if anyone knows how to modify either pix_record or its inputs ... And, for that matter, why pix_record (or possibly pix_snap) does this?
Otherwise ... recommendations on which program (preferably freeware) is best for converting frame files to movies in MacOSX?

SnapProX is a good software, but it is not free :( ++

QuickTime can do it -
'Open Image Sequence ...' in the 'File' menu of Quicktime Player [but
you probably have to fork out the rude 'extra' $$$ for Quicktime Pro
before that menu item works, most of the useful functions in
QuickTime are the same]
It is only the convenience of a menu items in the player that you are
paying for, QuickTime is still the same even if you don't pay the
ransom ... eg you can make a little applescript to do most things,
'open image sequence <filename> frames per second 25' is the command
for opening an image sequence, <filename> is the first file of a
numbered series.

Hi, it's free to give a try with mencoder to build the movie from pictures, there are several tricks on this page:
http://electron.mit.edu/~gsteele/ffmpeg/
once some little script can build the movie, it should be easy to use it though [shell], [popen], or [pyext], and have the movie completed in one click?

I am also trying to solve that problem. I downloaded a gem version from http://gem.iem.at/releases/0.91/gem-CVS20070605-OSX-i686-bin.tar.gz this version does not have the pix color bug (but some other bugs, including the no window focus bug), I wonder how to track down the problem? Maybe it is not a problem of the sourcecode, but with wrong compiling settings? or did some code parts change between june 2007 and october 2007, when that problem became obvious for the first time. I will see if sourceforge (gem is still on sourceforge? or svn???) tells something about code changes during that time... marius.
