Hi Matthias,
if you know how to make a pix_kinect object please do!
please don't. the videoKINECT plugin is the way to go.
It turns out that on mac there is no driver support for cameras in
pix_video, it is all just going through quicktime.
that's mainly a problem with the current build-system of Gem.
on OSX it still defaults to using [pix_videoDarwin] rather than the
new
plugin based approach.
you _should_ be able to force using plugins with something like
$ ./configure --with-video=no
apart from the fact that the "no" is quite weird (as you do want
video,
you just don't want pix_videoDarwin), i think i also remember that
this
for some reasons does not work (e.g. it is ignored), but i might be
mistaken here as well.
the configure definitely needs some rework to remove the forcing of
some
defaults.
all in all, this is a minor issue compared to getting videoKINEXT
running.
thanks matthias.
Yes, it would be nice to have [pix_video] work with the Kinect, but
right now the plugins stuff is not fully done yet, and people want to
work with the Kinect now. I tried to get stuff building using the Gem
build system, but I couldn't get it going, so I just made a Makefile
which seems to work. For one, it seems to depend on automake-1.11,
which is not always easily available. I see no reason why the Gem
plugins can work for automake-1.9 or even earlier, its not a
complicated build.
