for compiling the Gem lib to use pix_record and pix_write it is necessary to have the libquicktime, libtiff, imagemagick… When on Ubuntu/Debian you make ./configure you must have the following message: used optional libraries:

font-rendering :

image-support use ImageMagick : yes use TIFF : yes use JPEG : yes video-support use mpeg : yes use mpeg-3 : yes use QuickTime : yes use aviplay : yes use ffmpeg : yes input-support use v4l : yes use ieee1394 : yes

misc using ARB-extensions : yes using NV-extensions : yes using reg-struct-ret : yes after you make, thus you can launch will be able to read and write tiff JPEG QuickTime MPEG… All functions of Gem are very well now.

Do you have libtiff and/or imagemagick installed? Did the GEM configure find them?

Hello, I am a trainee with Kitchen (Paris) I have just compiled Gem with the sources of the CVS under UBUNTU. Gem opens without problem with Pd, but I have an error, on the pix_record object In the console I have the following message: [pix_record]: Gem has been compiled without pix-recording capabilities! And I can't succeed to use pix_write, somebody can show me, how functions the pix_write?
