check your libquicktime version.

1:0.9.2-1.rhfc2.ccrma

bad version but it should at least run. 0.9.1 is the last half-way stable.

I just tried uninstall libquicktime0.9.2 from synaptic and it asked me to remove lots of stuff first including Gem. But, like you said, 0.9.2 should at least run. Also, 0.9.3 is out, so I presume 0.9.2 should be fairly stable. No?

i suppose you did load pdp, did you?

yes i did.

...

...

pdp_qt ... couldn't create

is there another problem in the terminal window (those that are written to stderr go there)?

start pd from the term to see.

Yap, no other error message apart from

Pdp_qt... Couldn't create.

Any ideas?

i think no one tried 0.9.3 yet. i think most distros still have it in the unstable feed - thus e.g. my gentoo system would also like me to upgrade glut in case i upgrade libquicktime to unstable. didn't dare to do that.

I got 0.9.3 from apt-get;(

anyway: 0.9.2 is the real unstable version - especially jpeg support (crucial for pdp as it is the preferred codec). it inevitably crashes after some time.

but it should still let you build the object.

well. looks like it did not include qt support at compile time. maybe you have one of the distros where you have to install the headers of the installed libraries separately (a la debian - i don't know much about synaptic). did the ./configure tell you that it included quicktime support? if not: install + check the headers and try to compile again.

Do you mean this?

in running ./configure, i got

. . . . checking for lqt_decode_video in -lquicktime... yes checking for glXSwapBuffers in -lGL... yes checking for SDL_Init in -lSDL... yes target is linux used configure options: --enable-mmx=no --enable-quicktime=yes --enable-v4l=yes --enable-pwc=auto --enable-sdl=yes --enable-x=yes --enable-xv=yes --enable-glx=yes --enable-gsl=yes --enable-png=yes --enable-debug=no

Hi Martin:

While I am still figuring out why I don't have [pdp_qt], I have tried compiling pdp on the other machine using libquicktime-0.9.2 and great news! I got [pdp-qt]. This is with pdp 0.12.4.

So, I guess its the 0.9.3 libquicktime that is a bit funny.

However, I have not compiled pidip on this other machine yet, so will keep you posted.

Cheers

then you're the testbunny :-)

--enable-quicktime=yes

so support for quicktime is at least enabled.. then: start pd from a terminal to get more error output. it should tell us what's wrong. the console built into pd only gets parts of the error messages.
