re-using texture data without re-loading (across subpatches)
by Joseph Barrows 20 May '08

20 May '08

hi, is there a way to re-use a texture (without reloading) across multiple subpatches? i am using a modification of a pmpd example that uses constructor.pd to create a large collection of objects (each as its own subpatch) now i would like to texture the objects, but so far adding texture to the i3d.pd template patch makes it load up the same image several hundred times (wastefull using an image, hopeless if i want to use a movie as a texture) -joseph -- Joseph Barrows live video performance; web site design; new media artist jjbarrows.artwww.net jjbarrows(a)artwww.net

plist issues
by marius schebella 19 May '08

19 May '08

hi, there's a problem with the plist, if I use a flag like -verbose as a startup flag, the plist keeps the flag, even if I delete it from the startup flags line in the preferences. the only way to get rid of the line is to open the plist manually. any idea how to solve that? marius.

generating fluke objects strobo
by robert grah 19 May '08

19 May '08

hallo list, i am new to pd, every day i am wondering how many things are possible in pd. it is a great tool. i am planing to do an audiovisual live project with pd and have some questions, how i can realize it. i have this php programm which creates graphical html pages by fluke. everytime i refresh the php script the html looks different. my plan is that i make sound in pure data and this sound requests and controls the php script. so my question is: is it possible to include browser functionalities into pd? i think this is not possible. so my next question is: is there any other programming language which i can use to generate similiar graphics like my html stuff directly in pd (like tables, boxes)? i need something which generates graphics in strobo speed. which programming languages are supported in pd? i hope i have expressed god enough that you can understand what i want. maybe someone have ideas how i can realize my stuff. regards robert grah

special characters in GUI labels
by marius schebella 19 May '08

19 May '08

hi, I had to debug a patch this weekend, that included a brace/curly bracket '{' in a label for bng. the problem with this was, that I had a hard time finding the error because pd just kept crashing/freezing. I could not reproduce the error, since it was not possible to create a label name that included a '{', so I wonder if there are pd versions that allow this??? best, marius.

Re: [PD] soundfiler alternative - realtime? (loading in background)
by Ingo Scherzinger 19 May '08

19 May '08

Hi Claude, sorry that it took so long to test and to answer to your suggestion. I tried it with [readsf~] and [tabwrite~] plus [switch~ 64 1 32] and it works perfectly. It's about 40% of the speed (upsampling 32x)compared to[soundfiler] and has absolutely no dropouts or any other artifacts (so far). The only annoying thing is that it may take forever setting all the table sizes (around 3000 samples) manually. I tried [wavinfo] but it didn't really work. It may be better anyway not to change anything about the tablesizes while loading in background. However it will spped up loading time from currently 1 minute 45 sec to about 30-40 seconds. That's absolutely great. Thanks for the hint! Ingo > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Claude Heiland-Allen [mailto:claudiusmaximus@goto10.org] > Gesendet: Dienstag, 12.

soundfiler alternative - realtime? (loading in background)
by Ingo Scherzinger 19 May '08

19 May '08

Hi, does anybody know if there is an alternative method to soundfiler in order to load wave files into tables. Soundfiler is not realtime capable and I urgently need to load files in the background while playing audio and midi without interruption. Maybe an external? Any help is appreciated! Ingo
