hi, with the subject being somewhere within the gem pix_video arena;
After successfully using it hooked up to pix_texture, then [rectangle 4 3] i think (my memory doesnt remember everything), i switched rectangle to square then back. it worked fine. then, i think the next step was I set [rectangle 4 3]'s 2nd and 3rd inputs to 16 (numberbox) and 9 (numberbox) respectively. So then, in the gemwin, with rendering still on, the rectangle was just plain white. The camera i dont believe ever powered off during this whole duration. I changed one menu option in the camera to display 4:3 window borders but also tested turning this menu option off with the white rectangle still there in effect. If i figure out a resolution on my own, I'll make the attempt to post it. ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.

hi, ol' console says "error: pix_videoDS: Could not connect the filters in the graph, hr 0x80040217". Perhaps that was there even when it worked and i really dont know, but its making me think its the camera thats doing that. the laptop's built in camera does not produce this error.

which "reset" button? i know of none in pd. is there one on the camera. do you mean the "reset" message to the [gemwin] (which should have NO effect)

the error you get indicates that something is wrong with re-opening the device. does a reboot help ? (it's windows, as i am sure you have told us...)

for one thing, this is surely unrelated to your changing [square] and [rectangle] and whatever.
since the texture get's white (instead of blue), this indicates that no frames are being captured any more from the camera (which corresponds to the graph-related error message you get), which in turn means either a driver or hardware problem.
it would be interesting to know which hardware you are using (analog capture card, usb-cam, ieee1394-cam,...).
have you restarted pd? does it help?
if not, does the device still work with other applications? (probably they are able to reset the device to a proper state).
if not, does a reboot help? (ok, i'm repeating myself)
