flags newbie question
by Simon Laroche 08 Mar '02

08 Mar '02

Hi all, I've been working with pd for a month now and been reading the list msgs for some time too. I run pd on WinXP and work on video with GEM with a Nvidia Gforce2 and it is so smooth, I haven't encountered any problems at all. My problem is that i'm trying to use flags. For example, to use "-listdev", I must use it on startup and put it in my shortcut. But when I try to msg pd with listdev, like when I use the testtone patch with: ; pd audiostatus pd gives me a "unkown message" error. How can I send a -listdev message to pd or use other flags? The ; pd restart-audio from the testtone.pd patch doesn't work either... Thanks, Simon I know it's a simple question but I couldn't find any information about that on the list or in the doc.... _________________________________________________________________ Rejoignez le plus grand service de messagerie au monde avec MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com/fr

RE: [PD] best windows platform for pd?
by mark 07 Mar '02

07 Mar '02

I have been using it happily without any problems on windows 2000 (two separate machines) for a while now. w2k is a good system - fast and stable (well M$ had to learn how to write operating systems sooner or later :-)) I HAVE heard very good things about XP and will probably upgrade at some point - there is a good article about music and XP in a recent Sound on Sound (www.sospubs.co.uk). If I was upgrading a machine right now I would be very tempted to go for XP. cheers mark _______________________________________________ junklight - dark experimental electronics http://www/junklight.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Rory Walsh [mailto:rorytheroar@yahoo.com] > Sent: 07 March 2002 15:33 > To: pd-list(a)iem.kug.ac.at > Subject: [PD] best windows platform for pd? > > > I have an enquiry, which is the best operating system > for pd after windows 98?

preventing abstractions from opening ?
by CK 07 Mar '02

hi, Is there a way to prevent abstractions from opening windows showing themselves when clicked on ? I've tried to hide them behind canvasses, but still they will open windows when I click on the canvas ... regards, x -- chris(a)lo-res.org Postmodernism is german romanticism with better http://pilot.fm/ special effects.

framestein and videoplayback
by electrobass＠gmx.net 07 Mar '02

07 Mar '02

i installed and checked out framestein yesterday and must say that it`s really nice. the only problem i`ve got is that when playing back video, the playback stutters for a short, but visible amount of time. i`ve got a amd athlon 1,4 ghz and the cpu isn`t stressed, so does anybody know the solution? buffering the videos doesn`t really help... also the reaction to frameratechanges is rather poor, so how can i tune the whole thing? thanks in advance michael -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net

networked multi-channel PD cluster
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 06 Mar '02

06 Mar '02

I am working on a sound installation in an old train tunnel and I am using PD to control everything. But since I am a PD neophyte, I want to ask the list for direction. Basically, my plan is to use about 8 computers spaced down the length of the tunnel, each with two speakers. They will be networked together and running either OS X or linux. Here is how I envision it: (L) (R) (L) (R) (L) (R) (L) (R) (L) (R) [speakers] \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / master slave slave slave slave |---------| |-------| |-------| |-------| |---... [ethernet] All of the computers will share a pool of samples via the network. I would like to control all of the PDs from the master computer. For the first aspect of the installation, I would like to be able to trigger any sample on any/all computers and even move samples down the tunnel. The second aspect, I would like to be able to control granular synthesis on these computers. Does anybody know anyone who has done something like this before? With PD? Any advice you want to offer to get me going in the right direction would be grreatly appreciated. I am just starting with PD, but am familiar with most of the concepts since I have a background in Csound and programming. .hc -- "Man has survived hitherto because he was to ignorant to know how to realize his wishes.
