Hey Matthias,

I had the same on the depth sensor, but it didn't seem to show the RGB  
camera when I switched modes.  Did you try my build for Mac OS X?  It  
has a working version of  libfreenect.  You just have to put the whole  
pix_freenect folder into /Library/Pd (not ~/Library/Pd) If you want to  
use that with your own pix_freenect binaries, you'll have to put your  
binary into /Library/Pd/pix_freenect, then run this command (should be  
all one line):

  install_name_tool -change /path/to/libfreenect.0.0.1.dylib \
  /Library/Pd/pix_freenect/libfreenect.0.0.1.dylib \
  /Library/Pd/pix_freenect/pix_freenect.pd_darwin

You can find the /path/to/libfreenect.0.0.1.dylib by doing this:

  otool -L pix_freenect.pd_darwin
