There are several ways to do this, but the easiest I've found is to use Pacifist.

You can extract the SDKs without installing the full package (which will be disallowed on 10.9). If you download an older version of XCode (the last version of 3 or 4 depending on if you want 10.6 or 10.7 SDKs) from the Apple developer site ( ), it will contain the 10.6 and/or 10.7 SDKs (inside the package). Is that possible with my setup on osx 10.9 ? If so, how ? Ideally I would like to control resolution (16:9 formats seem a bit deformed/scaled) and autofocus for the c920 webcam. I've tried using ofQuickTimeGrabber but got a parsing error: Unknown type name 'ofQuickTimeGrabber'Īfter tried ofxUVC which uses ofxQTKitGrabber but ran into errors again: Field type 'ofxQTKitVideoGrabber' is an abstract class I've tried dragging the framework into the 3rd party frameworks folder and adding the paths to Header Search Paths and Library Search Paths in Xcode but no joy.

'ofGstVideoGrabber::ofGstVideoGrabber()', referenced from: I've also tried to set the GStreamer grabber, but I get linking errors: Undefined symbols for architecture i386: I'm using openFrameworks 0.8.0 on osx 10.9 and haven't found an easy way to download the 10.6 sdk( There is no direct download (older versions of xcode an sdk download option), I've downloaded Xcode 4.1 but it can't be installed because of osx 10.9). There is a videoSettings() function when calling that I get an alert mentioning the project must be compiled with the 10.6 sdk and is not supported when the app is compiled with 10.7+ The framework provides a QTKit video grabber, but I can't use the settings.

I'm trying to control auto focus/auto white balance settings for a webcam using OpenFrameworks(a c++ framework), but not having any luck.
