...documentation can always be improved, but really, this is all  
covered in the existing helpfiles (specifically "help/pix_video.pd")  
which should have come with the gem archive...I'm not familiar with  
the Dyne-Bolic live cd's layout, but I would hope that it would have  
included the help file abstractions and the examples, of which the  
04.video directory will be helpful for you...

good luck,
