hello!

I want to display a movie (QT, codec is ok, 1024x768, fr25fps) but gem keeps reporting: "error: GEM: pix_film: unable to open file".

the data is passe on to a pix_texture-objekt and after that there is a rectangle-object with height- and width- arguments (4 3).

what can be the reason?!

is there any restriction? couldn't find any clue in the manual or web..

thanks,

hello!

well, there are serveral efforts to provide descriptions to all the pd-objects. for example the pd-object database and also the link on top of this forum ("

").

but I couldn't find a list of the objects with the short description together. I want to print that list, so they have to be on one page (at pd.iem.at/pdb/ the complete list doesnt include the standard-Objects I urgently want to have within that list)

has anyone a link where I can find a document that lists all standard Objects (and perhaps other libraries included) WITH short description in ONE DOCUMENT for printing it out ?!!

would be great help!!!

thanks d~

hello!

does anone know a library or extension that could track the values of the mouse wheel or could track the mouseposition even beyond display resolution?

in fact i need input from a wheel in a range from about -10000 to 10000.
suggestions?

hello forum readers!

i am new to pd and gem but had a good start with max/msp and want to switch to pd.

so one of my most important questions ist if I can run, display a movie (i.e .mov, or .avi) with gem or pd. I did not find anything about it in the manual or in the web. do you know more about that?

thanks,
d~

hello mobil12!

this was quite exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much!

hello again!

sorry,
I redraw my question - I've misunderstood the object "pix_film" which actually does play quicktime. so I continue porting my max/jitter work to pd and will presumably be back with 'real' questions soon
