which "reset" button? i know of none in pd. is there one on the camera. do you mean the "reset" message to the [gemwin] (which should have NO effect) > > > -----Original Message----- > > hi, ol' console says "error: pix_videoDS: Could not connect the filters > in the graph, hr 0x80040217".

If i figure > out a resolution on my own, I'll make the attempt to post it. for one thing, this is surely unrelated to your changing [square] and [rectangle] and whatever. since the texture get's white (instead of blue), this indicates that no frames are being captured any more from the camera (which corresponds to the graph-related error message you get), which in turn means either a driver or hardware problem. it would be interesting to know which hardware you are using (analog capture card, usb-cam, ieee1394-cam,...). have you restarted pd? does it help? if not, does the device still work with other applications? (probably they are able to reset the device to a proper state). if not, does a reboot help?
