thanks for clarifying this

when I create pix_film I have this in the pd-console:
pix_film:: directshow support
pix_film:: quicktime support

when I open a .mov file (photo-jpeg) I have this:

[pix_filmNEW]: opening movie.mov with format 1908
Trying DirectShow
error: Unable to connect filters -2147220969
[pix_filmNEW]:  ...
[pix_filmNEW]: loaded file: movie.mov with 1266 frames (720x405) at
1266.000000 fps


how could i force pix_film to use Quicktime  ?


best,
stefan
