trying to get pdp working
by Josh Steiner 15 May '03

15 May '03

hey guys, i've finally got a linux box again and the time to scratch this itch to play around with pdp/pidip ... for some reason some of the crucial pdp objects can't load. when trying to load up control.pd i get: pdp_xv ... couldn't create pdp_v4l ... couldn't create pdp_trigger ... couldn't create but lots of other pdp objects are loading fine in the patch like [pdp_motion_phase] so it looks like the pdp library is loading. so here are my details: redhat 9 pd .36 pdp 0.11.1 (compiled cleanly) an nvidia geforce 4 go with nvidia's driver (which i think is supposed to support the xvideo extension) any pointers would be appriciated :) -josh

detecting tempo & sending paths to PD
by enrike＠ixi-software.net 15 May '03

15 May '03

hi here there are a couple of problems i have been tryng to solve with no luck. first : i have a patch that samples and manipulates the sound coming from a guy playing drumms. I need to calculate the tempo of the drumm player. i have been trying to find some external to do this. but coulnt find any. could anyone point me to some solution for this? second problem. i need to pass the path of a sound file in the harddrive to pd via flashserver. PD seems to have problems with spaces on file and folder names. if i send C:\my sounds\mysound.wav the whole things gets transformed into something like C:myoundsmysound.wav if i prepend "symbol" to the path then PD thinks its a list with several items being the spaces the separation. i have tried several tricks but none works. thanks

electric guitar effects for PD?
by David Merrill 15 May '03

15 May '03

Hello everyone - I'm interested in trying some PD objects that model common electric-guitar effects. I have a project I'm working on for which I'm currently sending MIDI out to an external effects processor, but I think it's crying out for an all-software, all-within-pd implementation. I've searched the list archives, and so far have found Yves Degoyon's page with wahwah~ and Disto~: http://ydegoyon.free.fr/software.html I'm just wondering if any other guitar players out there have been crafting their favorite effects for PD. On a related note, has anybody used PD with an electric guitar and amp, in place of a hardware-based effects processor? (I currently use a POD 2.0 for my live effects) I'm curious to what extent people are using PD to replace hardware-based gear like this. thanks! David Merrill

Help! PD glitching on Mac OS X...
by Michael McGonagle 14 May '03

14 May '03

Hello all, I have been experiencing several slow-downs lately, and now all of a sudden, I can't open any PD windows. And, it also appears that none of the externals I have setup in my .pdrc file are not loading. I tried running without any .pdrc file, but nothing seems to change. PD starts up, opens up the audio control window, and then appears to stop. I can still call up any menus, but they don't really do anything once I select a file or something. I did try to reinstall everything from the extended installer, but it seems to think that I have a newer version of PD installed, and it can not go back to an older version. I did try to recompile PD after not being able to reinstall, but nothing seems to have changed. Externals still don't load (or at least they don't announce themselves), and PD still will not open any patches. I even tried to run the 0.37 version I have, and it does the same thing as well. I am pretty sure that my problems are not related to my limited testing of 0.37, as these things started before I downloaded it. I didn't save any patches with it. Does this sound like the problem might be a TK/TCL thing? How might I reinstall those parts. I got my version from Adam's extended installer. Thanks, Mike

Consistency check failed: glist_findrtext
by dario aprea 14 May '03

14 May '03

I've just installed pd on slackware. Everything seems to go right - no error outputs at startup - but when I try to open an example I can see just a blank window, and if I try to create an object pd quits and shows this message: Consistency check failed: glist_findrtext Segmentation fault Does anybody know what it means? Thank you. Dario --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail: 6MB di spazio gratuito, 30MB per i tuoi allegati, l'antivirus, il filtro Anti-spam

[inlet], [outlet].
by Mathieu Bouchard 14 May '03

14 May '03

Wish * [inlet] and [outlet] should have numeric argument. Rationale Currently, [inlet] and [outlet] objects seem to number themselves according to their positioning in the canvas (AFAIK). This is a bad thing because: 1. Behaviour should not depend on graphical appearance, except when otherwise not possible to do so. For example, if several connections come out of an outlet, connections are treated in an unspecified order. It is considered a bug to rely on that ordering. (Is it? I don't know the puredata mindset enough for that) 2. Each functionality must be accessible by at least one explicitly specified behaviour. (i.e. unspecified behaviours do not count as a valid way to use a feature) Does that make sense to anyone? ________________________________________________________________ Mathieu Bouchard http://artengine.ca/matju

Re: [PD] Codewarrior compatibility
by Thomas Grill 14 May '03

14 May '03

> Up to then: no CodeWarrior externals for PD@OSX! Well, not exactly. A workaround could be to build PD as an application having all relevant stuff in a shared library (just as it is for Windows). Should we try to do that or can problems arise with it? best greetings, Thomas

Trivia 1: video controls in GEM
by Federico Bonelli 14 May '03

14 May '03

Hallo... I wouldlike to make a simple installation machine using GEM, as a start-up project. What I need is to put two clips on screen at the same time, chosen randomly into two different folders. THen I wouldlike to vary their speed. Now I wonder, how can I vary the speed of a clip with GEM? There is a tutorial/patch you can point to me to learn these basic video manipulation tech? PS I use gem on osX and LINUX, and my target installation will be on LINUX thanks fredd ----------SUb-------- | www.submultimedia.tv |

[GEM] Problem with alpha masks
by arm pdlist 14 May '03

14 May '03

I've been trying to do some alpha masks with the "alpha" object and some images and videos. I have two images where all the black is ignored and the other colors appear (just like i wanted). But around the edges of a pic where i have black and some other color, there is some "noise" in the mask... Please check the litle example in the attach, i think you can see better what i'm trying to say. Do you know how i can eliminate or minimize this "noise"? I've tried "pix_mask", but since in this project i use video too, my system crashes (i'm using xin xp). Is there any way to resolve this? __________________________________________________ Yahoo!
