Hi, there. I'm reviving a mail from 2011... here it is the last of the thread: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2011-02/086741.html
I was looking for help to use Gem with v4l2loopback. These mails are the only ones where I found the way to do it (no other place in internet). After installing v4l2loopback kernel module, I did what IOhannes said: ------------ you should be able to use [pix_record] with v4l2loopback. just do: - - create [pix_record] - - check at the console whether it prints something like "[pix_record]: backend #1='V4L2'" (this will only happen the first time you create a [pix_record] object for hygienic reasons) - - if so, continue - - set the codec to "v4l2" and the output filename to /dev/video1 (or whatever your loopback-device is). something like [codec v4l2, filename /dev/video1, record 1( should do the trick. f gmasdr IOhannes ----------- Now, there is /dev/video1 (also, /dev/video0 from Webcam). But, when I try to open that device with VLC, I got this error: [0x7fed08000e28] v4l2 demux error: not a video capture device [0x7fed08000e28] v4l2 demux error: not a radio tuner device [0x7fed08000e08] v4l2 access error: not a video capture device [0x7fed18003898] main input error: open of `v4l2:///dev/video1' failed I tried to open with Blender, videoOnTexture, but the texture is black. There's no error messages. What am I doing wrong? I have Pd-extended 0.44.0-extended-20130808, Ubuntu 14.04. I don't know how to know Gem version. _______________________________________________ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
