[GEM-dev] Gem pix_video on Fedora Core 5

[cyrille henry]

hello,

this look like the same problem as me.
the problem is in pix_videoNEW.cpp

the video transfer (m_videoHandle->startTransfer();) is enable in the 
startRendering fonction and at the object creation (in pix_videoNEW, via 
drivermess(0))

so when loading a patch, and then creating the gemwindows, the transfert 
is started 2 time. this create some problems.

it should work if you create the gemwindow, and then create the 
pix_video object.

the quick and dirty solution is to comment the lines 78 and 86 of 
pix_videoNEW.cpp

you should then have :

void pix_videoNEW :: startRendering(){
   if (!m_videoHandle) {
     post("GEM: pix_video: do video for this OS");
     return;
   }
   post("pix_videoNEW: starting transfer");
//  m_videoHandle->startTransfer();
}

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// stopRendering
//
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
void pix_videoNEW :: stopRendering(){
  // if (m_videoHandle)m_videoHandle->stopTransfer();
}

this works for me.
i don't know the solution for a good fix of this problem.
