Hi;<br><br>I built a patch under extended-4 that used pix_video and counter.<br><br>Under extended-5, the pix_video renders the video stream in an odd<br>way on my machine: I only get a section of the image with an iSight,

The root of iSight related problems is that the iSight is a terrible video device and the QT code for it is equally bad. Apple doesn't even use the QT code for any of their iSight based apps.
