There was a recent discussion about Gtk and threading--I have some more questions. I have a separate thread that is running capturing video data from a camera. Seems to me that this needs its separate thread. In my main thread I am running a Gtk application that I want to display the images from the camera. However, I am having problems getting this to work together. Everybody is saying that all of my Gtk processing should be done in the main thread, and indeed, whenever I use a Gtk/Gdk routine in my camera thread I get Xlib async errors. But then how do I trigger a render from my camera thread whenever my camera buffer gets a new video frame without calling a Gtk/Gdk API routine? I currently have a common memory buffer that both threads have access to. But the Gdk_pixbuf routines seem to be double buffering the data so I have to use a Gdk_draw routine to have my common memory rendered. Any suggestions or help is appreciated. -Andres _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
