[PD] Gem(lastest cvs) + video + linux

[Marco Scoffier]

Hello,

I am trying to get back into using Gem.  I got a compile (thanks tigital and 
Kurt)

I have the libmpeg3 libmpeg3-dev and libquicktime4linux0 and 
libquicktime4linux-dev installed on Debian

rc  libquicktime0                0.0.20021001-0.3             cinelerra testing
ii  libquicktime4linux-dev       1.3-5                        Header files for 
developing applications with quicktime
ii  libquicktime4linux0          1.3-5                        A library for 
reading and writing Quicktime files

ii  libmpeg1                     1.3.1-2.1                    The MPEG library 
calls for movie streams
ii  libmpeg3-1                   1.5-4                        mpeg decoding 
library
ii  libmpeg3-dev                 1.5-4                        headers and 
static libraries for libmpeg3

perhaps I have the wrong packages, because the output of ./configure looks ok:

checking for png_set_compression_level in -lpng... (cached) yes
checking for main in -lglib... (cached) yes
checking for quicktime_open in -lquicktime... (cached) yes
checking for OpenMPEG in -lmpeg... (cached) yes
checking for mpeg3_open in -lmpeg3... (cached) yes
checking for main in -ltiff... (cached) yes
checking for main in -ljpeg... (cached) yes
checking for main in -lttf... (cached) yes
checking for main in -lgltt... (cached) yes
checking for main in -lvl... (cached) no
checking for main in -lz... (cached) yes
checking for m_pd.h path... /usr/local/include
checking for GLTTFont.h path... /usr/include/gltt
checking for mpeg.h... (cached) yes
checking for quicktime/quicktime.h... (cached) yes
checking for libmpeg3.h... (cached) yes

but when I go to test the pix_film example I get the error messages as though 
pix_film hasn't been compiled properly:

error: GEM: pix_film: 
'/usr/local/share/doc/gem/examples/04.pix/../data/anim-1.mov' does not appear 
to be a supported movie
error: GEM: pix_film: 
'/usr/local/share/doc/gem/examples/04.pix/../data/alea.mpg' does not appear to 
be a supported movie


Also,  if I try the pix_video examples I get this error:

error: GEM: Unable to create single buffer window
error: GEM: Error creating const context
error: GEM: A serious error occured creating const Context
error: GEM: Do not continue!

Am I right that pix_film is the object to be used under linux?
I want frame per frame control of a video file synched with temporal events.

Thankyou for your time,
