[GEM-dev] pwc problem / help appreciated

[Roman Haefeli]

hi cyrille

thanks a lot for your effort. the object does instantiate without any
troubles. first, when i banged it, i got:

VIDIOCPWCRUSER: Invalid argument

then i realized, that the video device must be hardcoded somewhere and
is probably hardcoded to /dev/video0. actually my cam is running
on /dev/video1. so i changed it in the code and compiled the object
myself. 
when banging, i get now:

VIDIOCPWCRUSER: Bad file descriptor

unfortunately, i don't have a clue at all, what this means. 

the idea of having such an object is a genius idea, since it makes the
cam usuable for all video externals at the same time without having to
change the code of the externals. actually, i didn't know, that it could
be done outside of gem, but it seems like that it could.

yo, cyrille... i'd understand, if you wouldn't want to investigate this
any further, but i would be very glad and would appreciate a lot, if you
are still interested.
