Re: [PD] Gem and ieee1394 firewire cam on linux debian
Hallo! But I am having no luck with pix_video or pdp_v4l. The main problem seems to be that (apparently) recently the naming conventions in debian and possibly linux in general were changed. So there is no more /dev/video0 for the v4l mode, and for pix_video trying to work directly with ieee1394, I get complaints that /dev/ieee1394/dv/ host/PAL/in Is a directory. Yes we had this discussion quite some time ago: I think you can open the device with sending the message [driver /dev/ieee1394/dv/host/PAL/in( (fill in your device) to [pix_video]. If not let me know, then the fix was not added ... LG Georg ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Has anyone had more luck? Do I need to going from stable to testing in some parts of debian? Do I need to use some special somethings? Hi apparently this is a problem related to the new behavior of udev under Debian. I wouldn't recommand to downgrad udev though. I read the following on videolan's website: if you have a distribution that uses udev, then you must add/change the following line to the file 50-udev.rules in your /etc/udev/rules.d directory. %vi /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules # IEEE1394 (firewire) devices (must be before raw devices below) KERNEL==raw1394, NAME=%k KERNEL==dv1394, NAME=dv1394/%k KERNEL==video1394*, NAME=video1394/%n I havent tested it yet, since i havent any DV cam before hand at the moment. The workaround i used at the time is the following: first check that you belong to the right groups : disk and video by issuing the command groups If not, then $ sudo adduser username disk $ sudo adduser username video then run the attached bash script as a superuser after each restart: $ sudo bash ./dv.sh you might have to chmod +x the shell script Start Pd/Gem, pix_video should work as expected if feeded with the pathname given in the shell script (I cant remember well this part, i'm sorry i'm only sending a translation of my blog notes, i dont have access to the original machine and Pd program this week (public holiday).) The shell was adapted from an article about Ubuntu Edgy and DV cams http://tonywhitmore.co.uk/blog/2006/11/08/ubuntu-edgy-and-dv-cameras/ O. ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Hi, I'm having the same problem under fedore core 6 - there is no /dev/video any advice?

[PD] pd and 64bit Linux again
Hello, I tested pd 0.40-2 (its also in Debian Lenny) on 64 Studio and still got the table writing bug, where all tables are modulated with a square wave. Isnt it supposed to be absent from 0.40 onwards? Cheers, Malte -- Malte Steiner media art + development -www.block4.com- next concert: Elektronengehirn 30.8.

I think most of the 64-bit bugs only got cleaned up for 0.41 (and the test version in CVS is pretty stable at the moment) cheers M On Thu, Aug 16, 2007 at 02:37:34AM +0200, Malte Steiner wrote: Hello, I tested pd 0.40-2 (its also in Debian Lenny) on 64 Studio and still got the table writing bug, where all tables are modulated with a square wave.

Re: [PD] Gem and ieee1394 firewire cam on linux debian
Hi Georg, Thanks for your reply. When you say quite some time ago when was that approximately? I see that in Dec 06 Ico Bukvic was having the same problem, but the thread stops on the PD list. Anyway, I tried your suggestion. When I try this I get Bad argument for message 'driver' to object 'pix_videoNEW' Seeing as when I send |driver 1( to pix_video I receive the error message that refers to /dev/ieee1394/dv/host0/PAL/in, or host1 if I have send |device 1( message, then I would guess that the external is trying to do the right thing. I must mention that /dev/ieee1394 does not even exist in my hierarchy. Perhaps something has not been created for this. However, Kino and dvgrab work out of the box so the basics are all working fine. Only PD is trying to do the wrong thing. Hmmm, any further ideas?
