[PD] iSight, pix_video, Mac Books Pro and Pd-extended 0.42.5

[patrick mcnameeking]

Hi there, I just experienced the exact same error on a black macbook 4,1
 2.4 Ghz.  I went ahead and created my patch and then opened it in
PD-Vanilla and after importing all the necessary libraries and it worked
fine.  I just tested the patch out in extended 0.42.5 again and it is
running perfectly.  I couldn't explain how or why this worked but I just
thought i'd share with you how i dealt with it.
Hope that helps.
Pat
