loading libs / .pdrc (was: PD not finding externals)
by robbert van hulzen 22 Nov '06

22 Nov '06

i'm still having similar troubles (after reinstalling the app & plist): pd not finding files. seems they're partly simply not there in pd-ext-0.39.2-t5 (certain help files, eg bonk~ & fiddle~) and partly they're not loaded: it seems certain subfolders in /5.reference/ (eg ggee, ekext, flatspace) are not loaded, hence--i suppose--not included in the path preferences. before fiddling with the prefs again (in the xml Property List Editor or as accessed through pd), i'd like to know if someone can advise me on how to do that exactly. matju suggested .pdrc. i wasn't able to discover what and how that is in the list archives, could anyone enlighten me? thanks so much, cheers, robbert -- Pd-0.39.2-extended-test5 mac osx 10.4.8, 15" G4 PB 1.67 GHz, 1 GB ram > I am guessing that you are using Pd-extended and that you did not > read the included README.

pd extended 0.39.2 test5 stk bug?
by Bosko Milakovic 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Hi! I've tryied to use "stk instruments final project" with pd extended 0.39.2 test5 version but it wont load anything. I always get message: this application has failed to start because pthreadVC.dll was not found. Re-instaling the application may fix this problem. Is it a bug? Also, why FFT and Classical waveforms examples is missing from Audio examples?

What's the deal with that? Do you I have to run it from command > line? If you click on a bat file the window doesn't stay open, so you don't get to see the errors. If there are no errors it should work. The only way I know in XP to have the window stay open is to open a "Command Prompt" and navigate to the bat file, then run it. I suspect there _is_ a way to have the window remain open, probably some registry setting. Martin

RE: [PD] comport issue
by renaud.herne＠belgacom.be 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Hey, I got something similar last night. I tried to interface a serial mouse to one of my com ports. The idea behind this is to get more handy controls at no cost. I checked the proto of the mouse I found back in stuff with a terminal and a hex editor. It mached the description of a Microsoft 2 button mouse (3 data words of 7 bits 1200 bps no parity one stop no handshake) So far so good But I didn't recieved anything in comport (after turning off the teminal to release the com) I also tried something less exotic (another PC connected wit a null modem cable to the port - Both running 9600-8-N-1 no handshake) But I wasn't able to get anything. I noticed that open 0 opens COM1, open 1 opens com 2... The number box at the bottom of the commport example should disply something right? I am running 0.38.4-extended-RC8 under Windows XP Any hints?

Filenames
by Chuckk Hubbard 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

My program saves .ji files, and separately saves .trs and .prs files with the same name as the chosen .ji file. Same thing when it loads a .ji file. Right now, I have something like the attached file. It should take the input "filename.ji" and output "filename". 2 problems: a) any numbers in the file path are replaced with the text "float", b) it would be nice for it to know whether ".ji" was already on the end, because if someone types a name for save-as and doesn't put .ji on the end, it lops off the last three characters as though they were ".ji". I thought makefilename might help, but it only works for putting together, not taking apart. I'm a little rusty on string manipulation in Pd. Is there a simple way to set up something like this? Thanks. -Chuckk -- "Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing." -Theodore Roosevelt

convolution weirdness
by Charles Henry 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Hi, list, I have practically abandoned the idea of making a subband adaptive filter scheme using externals, but have not given up on making a Newton-method, rather than a gradient descent method (Fourier deconvolution is a Newton method, for instance, LMS and NLMS is a gradient descent method). So, I've written the convolution routine and it works mostly. There is a high frequency component of the error that doesn't make sense to me. All I did was the complex multiplication of two fft's, and it seems like it's not handling the Nyquist frequency well. Any ideas? Also, I wondered if there would be a way to move a block of samples (in this patch length 2*L) within a block of samples length 2*N, from the end of the block to the beginning of the block. This would reduce latency of the filter patch (currently 2*N-L) to L (samples). N is the filter length, and L is the intended latency. I've attached the patch, as is, where you can see the high-freq. weirdness that goes on. Just turn on the filter using the toggle box above [s f_on$0] and hit the message [256 64], in that order. Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved! Chuck

pix_multiblob pix_blobtracker
by arno liegeon 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Hello, I use pd-0.39.2-extended-test5 on a ibook G4 with Mac OsX 10.4. I try to use "pix_multiblob" object but I don't know how find the valures of others blobs than the first one. In reference, patch show a "pd_showblob 1" only but I want others blobs. Another problem is "pix_blobtracker" object are not running in my computer. Thanks for your lights and sorry to my poor english!
