    Hello,

    I've bben fiddling around for a few days with that question: how come PDP keeps telling me, whatever the Installer (extended 0.38 or 0.39-test4, hand compilation via fink) that the Jpeg codec / animation jpeg A or B are unsupported video codec?

    I tried to fix it on my Titanium running Panther as well as on dual G5 running Tiger, in vain.

    Any hints?

    You may also use the [pix_write] object from the CVS version of Gem that allows to write a .mov file to the harddisk stright from the render window.

    Hi ,

    I only use Nvidia graphics, from PCI MX4400 to GS 7600 through nvidia chipsets nforce2 and 4. I use the module assistant to compile (no nvidia binary) with xorg.

    I've had totally painful experience with Ati such as no GL acceleration with Gem.

    I am currently using 2 usb webcams at the same time with pd/Gem without any glitch

    use the [driver 0( (V4L)
    just send [device 0 ( ou [device 1( to switch to either attached device. They are numbered after their being pluged into your system

    bye

    You should have a look to the aubio library cf http://aubio.piem.org

    then use the aubionotes~ object to detect pitch in realtime

    here is an abstraction I wrote that might be useful for you to design your own.

    Dont forget to declare the variables at creation time suche as [myaubio test]

    You then can modify the parameters by replacing the $1-variableName by test-variableName

    Enjoy!

    hi tubdub

    actually I'm a long time Gem user and I wanted to have a try on pdp. At the time, I only had acces to a dual G5, now I switced back to good old Linux, things are going fine.

    I managed tonight to have PDP running more or less on OSX.

    I installed PD-0.39.2-extended-test4 from http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html

    Then I installed pdp after Yves Degoyons instructions:

    http://ydegoyon.free.fr/pidip.html

    But i didnt use the .pdrc instructions. I just addede to the path these two lines:

    /usr/local/lib/pd/pdp_pidip_osx/

    /usr/local/lib/pd/pdp_pidip_osx/doc/objects

    the latter for the help files.

    Still some objects not working : pdp_blur , pdp_diff, pdp_motionfade, pdp_contrast

    If you want to playback the audio, you'll either have to play a seperate audio file, or use [pdp_qt~] in the PDP external. Gem cant do it.

    Hi jonathan,

    as hardoff wrote, you just add a counter to the right inlet, for instance with a counter at a 40 tempo, which allows you to play a video @25fps (if in PAL format).

    Just stop the counter without resetting it, and start it again once the video should be turned back on!

    That's it!
