I’m trying to use the Processing video library examples (under Capture in library examples). I can get them working fine in windows 10, but no luck on Mac 10.14.6 (Mojave). Is this a known issue? To be clear, I’m using the library example:
---------------------------------------------------------
/**
* Brightness Tracking
* by Golan Levin.
*
* Tracks the brightest pixel in a live video signal.
*/
import processing.video.*;
Capture video;
void setup() {
size(640, 480);
// Uses the default video input, see the reference if this causes an error
video = new Capture(this, width, height);
video.start();
noStroke();
smooth();
}
void draw() {
if (video.available()) {
video.read();
image(video, 0, 0, width, height); // Draw the webcam video onto the screen
int brightestX = 0; // X-coordinate of the brightest video pixel
int brightestY = 0; // Y-coordinate of the brightest video pixel
float brightestValue = 0; // Brightness of the brightest video pixel
// Search for the brightest pixel: For each row of pixels in the video image and
// for each pixel in the yth row, compute each pixel's index in the video
video.loadPixels();
int index = 0;
for (int y = 0; y < video.height; y++) {
for (int x = 0; x < video.width; x++) {
// Get the color stored in the pixel
int pixelValue = video.pixels[index];
// Determine the brightness of the pixel
float pixelBrightness = brightness(pixelValue);
// If that value is brighter than any previous, then store the
// brightness of that pixel, as well as its (x,y) location
if (pixelBrightness > brightestValue) {
brightestValue = pixelBrightness;
brightestY = y;
brightestX = x;
}
index++;
}
}
// Draw a large, yellow circle at the brightest pixel
fill(255, 204, 0, 128);
ellipse(brightestX, brightestY, 200, 200);
}
}
