Hi,

xawtv is running fine after I change manually from pal to pal-nc. But it does not remember its settings. It does not make any changes to pdp either. So I need to change the default settings for my video capture device in some properties-file or within Pd. Is this possible?

hi,

I have the problem that my display does not show the captured video correctly. It looks like it is set to a wrong format (i need pal-nc, whatever that is). Can I change this somewhere (pix_glx, pdp_v4l)? Or

could

Never mind, I bought a really cheap noname-device (I read, pal-nc is only used in Argentina!?), and will now change it to the second cheapest. marius.

setting the video norm in pdp_v4l is not possible right now, i'll have a look at it. as for frequency tables for the tv channels, there is no support either, but you can use the freq and freqMHz messages to tune the frequency.

Hi

I'm using V4L2 and v4lctl setnorm NTSC works for me in pdp. Before discovering v4lctl i used to change the norm in pdp_v4l.c just adding :

x->x_norm = 1;

yes, pal is the default. i completely forgot about it, and with nobody complaining... :)

next release will support a "norm" message

i tried autodetect (3) and it doesn't seem to work for my bttv card..

i have ImageMagick-5.4.7 from .rpm, not sources ... is this the problem?

i guess you have the ImageMagick from planetccrma : it's not compatible with pidip. pick the rpm from ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick/linux/redhat-9.x/i386/ if you have redhat-9

actually i had the ImageMagick from rh9 - the newer package you pointed me to solved the problem ... thanks!

so here's another one: every file i try with pdp_imgloader croaks thus:

pdp_imgloader : loading : ../images/bughead1.jpg pdp_imgloader : severe error : could not load image (err=4)!!

i have imlib2-1.0.6 (again from .rpm) ... any suggestions?

did you install, not just imlib2, but jpeg and png librairies ?

imlib2-loader_xpm-1.0.6-1.i386.rpm
imlib2-loader_tiff-1.0.6-1.i386.rpm
imlib2-loader_png-1.0.6-1.i386.rpm
imlib2-loader_jpeg-1.0.6-1.i386.rpm
...

hum, this again,

this symbol is part of ImageMagic ( at least v. 5.5.4 ), i suspect it couldn't find the right magick library at link time, could you check it with which magic library you're linked with the command : "ldd pidip.pd_linux" ?

for me, it reports : libMagick-5.5.4.so.0 => /usr/lib/libMagick-5.5.4.so.0 (0x40408000)

and loads fine.

cheers, sevy
