windows2000</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello. I'm trying to use the pix_video object
with a creative usb webcampro on win2000. I'm using gem 0.87. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>it doesn't work. When I create the object I het
the popup window, select the webcam, I get "pix_video: driver 'creative webcam
pro <VFW>'"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>but then "error: GEM: pix_videoNT: Unable to
connect to video driver."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is the driver just not supported, am I doing
something wrong? Is there a way to configure the pix_video object so that this
works?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><EM>Pix_video under NT is rather particular about
how it tries to configure the<BR>capture device... It also doesn't support DV
cameras because such devices<BR>aren't exposed to VideoForWindows.<BR><BR>I'll
post some (alpha) video input objects which I've written for NT
which<BR>provide a bit more functionality. There's one for
VideoForWindows and<BR>another for DirectShow which does allow DV devices to
be used.<BR><BR></EM>Is it possible that this webcam would work with your
input object?<BR><BR>What else should I try?</FONT></DIV>
