[GEM] gem and video ?
by Yves Degoyon 10 Sep '01

10 Sep '01

hi, I've guessed from messages on the list that gem can handle video capture and video files. I'm not too sure, is that right ?? I wanted to check this out, so I downloaded gem 0.84-6 and compiled it on my RedHat 7 / Xfree86 4.1.0 / Mesa 3.5 system. Then, I tried to open the gem examples but, for any of them, and whatever DISPLAY is set to ( localhost:0, 192.168.6.2:0, :0 ), I always get the following error when I try to create a gem window : ################################################# Pd version 0.34 TEST 7 compiled 17:38:23 Aug 30 2001 ... GEM: Mark Danks GEM: ver: 0.84-5 GEM: compiled: Sep 6 2001 error: GEM: Could not open display ,] error: GEM: Error creating const context error: GEM: A serious error occured creating const Context error: GEM: Do not continue! ################################################# It's not the common DISPLAY problem, ( I did the "xhost +" even though I don't have to do it, the X server has been started as root and I'm running PD as root ), so I think there's some incompatibility with latest XFree and Mesa. If gem can handle video, this can be worth digging ... If it doesn't, that's just a bug report. cheers, Yves.

a big OOOPS !!! I checked my card with 'glxinfo' and it says : Direct Rendering : No I thought it would have all 3D features but no. Anyway, it's gonna be hard to change on my laptop and, besides, as it fits me needs, I won't try to do it. thanks and sorry for the confusion.

Im new, a few q's
by Casey Basichis 10 Sep '01

10 Sep '01

Howdy, i just started getting into PD ive been using reaktor but i really want to get into some of the more advance programs (csound, max/msp, supercollider and pd). I have a few questions, first, are there any externals that take advantage of not only the x/y and preassure of a wacom tablet but also the tilt menu at the top the buttons and 4d mouse? I saw i guy perform using the tilt a lot but i think he was using max. Second, coming from reaktor im kinda used to knowing exactly what types of synthesis and operations i can do, what is pd capable of? (scanned synth, granular, physical modeling?) do these each have to be programmed everytime from tiny blocks or are they part of bigger blocks like in reaktor (ie you load an sine wave osc or you load a granular synth object), Finally what are the differences between pd and max and jMax(can max do more types of synthesis) and also Supercollider and cSound (i know they are languages but are they way more powerful or no) Thanks, Casey Basichis caseybasichis(a)yahoo.com --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!?

I've changed the GrIPD GUI so it should run faster in performance mode now. I also added the Poll Time field to the options menu.

rcfile [and getting plugin~ to work, again]
by Frank Barknecht 09 Sep '01

09 Sep '01

Hi, trying to get plugin~ running, I have found a strange behaviour with with pd's (0.34 linux) startup file, ~/.pdrc in my case. It seems, that this file has an upper limit in the number of options. I can start pd with the plugin~-lib loaded in the following ways: $ pd -path /usr/lib/pd/extra/plugin~/ $ pd -lib /usr/lib/pd/extra/plugin~/plugin~ Now I tried to put one of these in my startup file. The result are segmentation faults: rcfile option = -lib /usr/lib/pd/externs/iemlib1 rcfile option = -lib /usr/lib/pd/externs/iemlib2 rcfile option = -lib /usr/lib/pd/externs/iem_t3_lib rcfile option = -path /usr/lib/pd/externs/iemabs rcfile option = -path /usr/lib/pd/externs rcfile option = -path /usr/lib/pd/doc rcfile option = -path /usr/lib/pd/extra/ rcfile option = -path /usr/lib/pd/extra/plugin~/ rcfile option = -alsa rcfile option = -font 10 rcfile option = -realtime rcfile option = -midiindev 22 Segmentation fault But if I remove "-font 10" or any other option from ~/.pdrc, I can start plugin~ via the rc-file. So is there an upper limit of options, I can store in my rcfile? -- __ __ Frank Barknecht ____ ______ ____ __ trip\ \ / /wire ______ / __// __ /__/ __// // __ \ \/ / __ \\ ___\ / / / ____/ / / / // ____// /\ \\ ___\\____ \ /_/ /_____/ /_/ /_//_____// / \ \\_____\\_____\ /_/ \_\
