[PD] pdp: Handling pdp_v4l VS pdp_v4l2 and possibly updating the examples
All the examples in pdp use pdp_v4l. On two of the machines I tested (with different webcams and distros: ubuntu lucid 10.04 i386 and debian wheezy amd64) these only work with v4l2 (and thus [pdp_v4l2]) I wonder now-a-days what the statistics are with v4l and v4l2 devices and which are currently more 'representative' (i.e. is v4l still very widely used?) Anyhow - Maybe the examples for pdp should also exist with pd_v4l2. Or maybe pd_v4l and pd_v4l2 could be encapsulated into, say, an abstraction which enables to chose. Not sure which would mean most work.. What do you think? Lorenzo. ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

I would just do it yourself or prepare for the snarky obscure psuedo-political cheese comments. I change all mine to pdp_v4l2 pp On 6/15/11 3:38 AM, Lorenzo Sutton lsut...@libero.it wrote: All the examples in pdp use pdp_v4l.
