Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: puredata Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Miller Puckette (millerpuckette) Summary: [bugfix]: non-2^n-BS bug
Initial Comment: I'm really not a 'spammer'! ...nor a hypochondriac... I've tested several versions of pd (0.42.5 - 0.43.3 (ext/van)). None of them is working with non-2^n-BSes!
On the mailing-list ( http://www.mail-archive.com/pd-dev@iem.at/msg11344.html ), Claude Heiland-Allen states that it is already implemented.. (Thanks Claude) But I can't confirm that. I've tried the patch he posted there, - without success: The blocksize is always rounded to the next bigger power of 2, it seems! I don't know what he's on, but I'm on windows. Maybe that makes the difference.. (Is this a hardware- or Os-dependent feature..??)
Please take a look at the attached pd-patch. It's my attempt to work out the problem.. If someone could give me a resonable answer, I promise I'll never come back again ;) ...for this issue...
PS: It feels a little annoying if one does not get a real response or not a response at all! (Eg. look at the feature requests. The last one on the 1st page is like 2 years old, so you can't say there are too many to respond to each one..). This especially is true if the response is longer than the acual answer like "Yes", "No" or "I don't know". That would have been a big help for me already. Although it's not making the bug disappear automatically... Anything like if it is a useful/good idea is something I'd like to know, when posting something, for exapmle.. But no, I won't be scared away so easily..

Message: ...oh now it's here... Just in case you're working on BS-things anyways I only wanted to mention that I have some more BS-related oddities. If you are interested, I can do a search and gather them.
If you are talking about the hurleur-forum, I always thought that was not the right place for the devs?!? ..I haven't been there for a while ...since I have no problems with the installation... ;)
I never wanted it to be only a question.. and it finally turned out to be a real bug. ..after the third try to convince you... ...I do what I can to help.

Message: @op: if you don't feel comfortable with the mailinglists, why not use another support-channel (IRC, forum?)
the sf-trackers are here to track bugs and issues, not questions.

Message: indeed i can confirm the bug (as discussed on the mailinglist). i'll attach a (simplistic?) fix that appears to make it work with current git (and this time i tried hard to avoid introducing trailing whitespaces)

Message: I didn't know about that. I find the lists to be a little confusing.. There are so many, with all the archives. And sometimes some posts (from sf) only occur at the archive if I'm not mistaken..??? But I'll take a closer look... Anyways, did you (or someone else) take a look at the file??
Oh and just let me take this chance to thank you very very much for this brilliant piece of software. This is far more than programming. If it wasn't that good, it wouldn't have take me that much time... ..I mean I wouldn't have spent it...

Message: Sorry - SF is a pain for me - can you follow up on the mailing list? That way more people will be able to find the long thread that will doubtless ensue.
