Pduino inputs
by Alexandre Quessy 23 Jun '06

23 Jun '06

Hi Hans and the PD list, We are trying to use the PD Arduino firmware + PD patch that Hans has released. See http://at.or.at/hans/pd/objects.html and http://arduino.cc/for more info. Our goal is to use it a inputs only. (for now) We realized that some analog inputs values were way too high. It worked, then it broked for some unknown reason. (apparently none) Then it worked again and broke again. So, we can say it is still unstable. We think that it mighth be because of some equations in the Pduino Arduino code. We changed line 119 from : transmitByte = transmitByte + (2^(i+1-startPin)*digitalData); to : transmitByte = transmitByte + (2^(i+1+startPin)*digitalData); Then, the analog-in stopped giving strangely high data. We found it strange the use of negative exponents (when startPin is 7). Was that a luck or what ? We had lot of fun debugging that. ;-D --- Regarding the digital inputs. In both cases, they were behaving strangely. Their state are constantly changing. Some work, but some not. Maybe it is just electric noise : should we ground everyother pin ? Probably. In the PDuino PD patch, are the serial streams always parsed as being the same length ? It is supposed to be so, but might not in every case. Maybe it would be better to use the [match] object. (because the selector, meaning that it it the beginning of the list, is 255) Maybe sometimes, because of calculation error (?), the number 255 is sent again. Cheers, -- Alexandre Quessy http://alexandre.quessy.net

windows compile failing - second try
by Damian Stewart 23 Jun '06

23 Jun '06

so i tried to compile pd under windows, again. i've followed the instructions at www.puredata.info/docs/developer/mingw letter-for-letter on a new pc (my work machine running winxp). applying the patches under 'packages' in cvs, i get a number of "reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!" the default response for this error is to skip, so i skipped. this happens on s_main.c, makefile.in, and m_class.c. also on one patch, it can't find the target file (d_mayer_fft.c). many other patches give 'hunk failed' messages, including s_loader. compiling the patched version anyway gives > s_loader.c:252: error: conflicting types for sys_load_lib looking at the source file, it looks like a bad merge (which i kind of expected), so deleting the second (simpler, only one line) sys_load_lib function allows it to compile. the error now becomes > no rule to make target d_mayer_fft.c which would lead me to believe someone has forgot to add d_mayer_fft.c to cvs. any help? -- f r e y live music with computers http://www.frey.co.nz

distinguishing to different number symbols with [select]
by sokratesla 23 Jun '06

23 Jun '06

# Hi all, # I want to distinguish different numbers. But these number are coming in symbol format. (I press numbers on my keyboard and get their symbol with [keyname], keyname outputs symbols out of its second outlet.) # The help patch of [select] says that it compares the incoming signal with its creation arguments according to its first arguments type. If the first argument is a symbol, it expects symbols etc. # But select can distinguish only symbols which are not symbols. (foo, dog, cat etc. :-) ) I sent these messages to [select] and only the second outlet (which is associated with symbol 10) has triggered. For any kind of number symbols select bangs the first number symbol creation arguments output. |symbol 10( | | |symbol 20( | / |/ [select foo 10 20] | | | | | | [o] [o] [o] bang! bang!.. # Is this a bug, or do I something wrong? # The help patch uses [sel dog cat foo 400] and the message |symbol 400( and that example hides this strangeness. -ugur-

Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC8-linux-i686 looking for libjack-0.80.0.so.0
by yvan vander sanden 22 Jun '06

22 Jun '06

Hi, i tried to install the new pd-extended on my fedora core 4 system. Since it's a binary distribution, it installs like a breeze. But i get this error message when i try to run pd: pd: error while loading shared libraries: libjack-0.80.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory So i've downloaded jack, but it is at version 0.101.1 The 0.80 version is nowhere to be found. See this output: # ldd /usr/local/bin/jackd linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00a75000) libjack.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libjack.so.0 (0x006af000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00bbf000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00db6000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00be6000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00a94000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00a76000) But how to solve this? I see 3 ways: 1. I could install the correct version of jack for this version of pd, but i cannot find it on the net. 2. I could compile pd myself, but i can only find this compiled version, not the source. 3. I could let go of the extended version, but the other versions do not work either. I have tried pd 0.38, but it will not compile and complains about a g_canvas. I guess i have some newer libs installed. 0.39 will compile, but the audio is broken when i start it. Any suggestions? Thanks, yvan

gem windows stability questions
by ingo randolf 22 Jun '06

22 Jun '06

hello. can somebody give me some hints to make my patch more stable? my system: winXP dualcore 3GHz intel 1 GB RAM gem 0.90.1 im using the [pix_film] object to play some movies (quicktime: 1024x768 25fps - foto-jpg compression). im using [auto 0] and trigger every single frame by a [metro 40] according to the length of the movie. if the movie is loaded and plays the patch is stable, it seems that there is some problem when i load a new moviefile. thats the most propable situation for a crash. is this a problem with quicktime? can i unload a loaded movie before loading a new file? which codec should i use if i use avi? is there difference in stability? thanks for help. ~io

I think > that free software should be totally free, and I think that the more "Totally free" is pretty hard to quantify. Some would argue that the BSD license is more "totally free" than the GPL. The GPL imposes very definite restrictions, which are of great benefit the end users of the software. I guess in this respect, public domain software is the most free of all, imposing no restrictions what so ever on users or programmers. Should I be 'totally free' to write software which slaughters and maims innocent people? What is this freedom thing anyway? I hear George Bush saying it quite a lot on the news.

Enttec DMX to USB external
by David Kirkpatrick 22 Jun '06

22 Jun '06

A while ago, Olaf Matthes had a pd external for running an Enttec Pro DMX/USB interface from within pd. Since his subsequent departure, the external has disappeared. Does anyone still have a copy, or has anyone built their own external that I might be able to get my hands on. If worst comes to worst, i'll have to build it myself, but i'd really prefer not to as my programming is somewhat dodgy. As i'm using windows-only programs with pd already, i'm going to need a dll, or at least some windows compatible source code. Any help would be greatly appreciated, David Kirkpatrick _________________________________________________________________ Read, write and reply to Hotmail on your mobile.
