I tried the following and each try was med with a seg fault:
device 1
device /dev/dv1394/0
device /dev/raw1394
Even stopping rendering (sending a 0 to the gem_win) creates a segfault
when the pix_video object is in the window (and no segfault if it's
not).
I guess I can't really report much till I have a fully functional gem.
As of now I am running gem with --disable-ARB and without the -msse2
compile flag. Both these issues are reported to be fixed in FC5 so I
should probably install FC5 (but I doubt that will fix the pix_video
problem).
Any tips for either getting pix_video to work in FC4, or for setting up
FC5 to work best with Gem?
Thanks again all,
