Hi- This is this first pd related problem that I haven't been able to work my way out of, so I hope that somebody can get me out of this seemingly trivial problem.
I'm trying to get live video input, but when I create the [pix_video]object, I get the following message:
pix_video: driver 'Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32)' error: GEM: pix_video: Unable to set video format
I've checked the list archives as well as [pix_video_ds] but I get an error concerning the gem.dll when I open the help file.
rig: pd 0.36, gem 0.87 (Mar 16 2003), winxp, dv cam via firewire Any ideas?
thanks, brad.
Pix_video works only on Linux, but there is a win port by danielh:

Can you be more specific about the error message?
[pix_video] certainly won't work with your DV camera as Video For Windows doesn't know how to do DV decompression. [pix_video_ds] should work, however.
You could try the CVS build of GEM which seems to be more stable than gem 0.87 and has [pix_videoDS] built in (note the slightly different object name). It's also available at www.bogusfront.org
Good luck, Daniel
Daniel, Thanks for your response.

OK, that's when I get the following error message...

(I'm translating it from a French OS)>> pd.exe - Entry point not found The entry point of the procedure ?setModified@GemBase@@IAEXXZ cannot not be found in the gem.dll dynamic library.

I've been using the build from www.bogusfront.org. I assume that with this build (dated Mar 16 2003) that I do not have to load the pix_video_ds.dll in my batch (after the gem.dll as per your instructions) since it's built into Gem. Also, thanks for pointing out the object name change. But I still can't get this to work.
