CDM articles about Pd - contribution?
by Marco Donnarumma 02 May '09

02 May '09

Hi all, i will start to write articles about Pd techniques on CDM - Create Digital Motion http://createdigitalmotion.com/ . For who doesn't know it, CDM is a online magazine about motion graphics, vjing, audiovideo, and whatever related. The editorial staff there used to write few things about Pd. But i proposed them to write more specific articles, with the aim to spread to a broader audience the usage of Pd for audiovideo, mixed-media related projects. There are many processes that i discovered partecipating to this mailing list and to the forum, so i would like to spread some of the most interesting and/or unexpected to a broad audience of possible users. it would be fantastic if the list could contribute with ideas, little patches, images, screenshots or whatever you like. I'm still planning how to move on with this, but first i would like to know if this sounds interesting for the list or not. suggestions are very welcome... cheers -- Marco Donnarumma aka The !S.A.D!

pix_data problems
by marius schebella 02 May '09

02 May '09

hi, pix_data keeps crashing on me occasionally and I can't figure out, why and when. Here is what I *think* is the problem (so far this worked): when I create a new image in photoshop I can set a "color profile". the default is sRGB IEC61966-2.1) if I use this and then save the file this causes crashes. If I go with the option "Don't color manage this document" then no crashes. does this make sense or is this superstition? otoh, maybe this is only a bug of the current GEM version I am using, which is the most recent svn version from today. another question related to pix_data is the following the helpfile says the range that I can query is (0.0f, 0.0f) to (1.0f, 1.0f). but it seems that the range is actually (1.0f/WidthInPixels, 1.0f/HeightInPixels) to (1.0f, 1.0f). in words: if I have a 128*128 pix image, I will query the pixels by dividing 1-128 by 128 [and not: dividing 0-127 by 127 or 0-127 by 128...] marius.

pix_video appears to crash PD when running on Leopard
by james murray 01 May '09

01 May '09

Hi, I had originally posted this within the PD/GEM forums but haven't gotten any traction/responses to my question and thought perhaps the list might have a more lively response. I recently had a G5 tower upgraded to Leopard while being serviced by Apple (I wasn't asked if this was wanted and it wasn't because of concerns I had about PD running smoothly on Leopard) and cannot downgrade the OS due to lost install discs. I upgraded my PD Extended vers. to 0.40.3 as had been recommended in the Forums and although I can get PD to open and access libraries properly I've run into a problem with getting certain works made on Tiger to function properly with the pix_video object. I'm running the piece using a BlackMagic Intensity Pro video card it should be noted. When the patch in question is opened it crashes after five or six seconds... Deleting the pix_video object appears to stop the crashing, but obviously it needs to be there in order for the piece to work. Has anyone else been running into video capture issues with Leopard/PD Extended 0.40.3 and BlackMagic (or any other variation of them)? Is there a work-around object/alternate object that I could try using to avoid this and actually have a stable piece to run? Any help/insight would be huge. Thanks in advance. 1. J

default [output~] in Pd-extended
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 01 May '09

01 May '09

There is a object in iemlib called [output~], and its currently the default object called [output~]. All of Miller's sound examples use an included object called [output~]. So if you save one of those examples to a different folder, then open it, that patch will then have [iemlib/output~] instead of Miller's. This is very confusing to many people, so I'd like to try to remedy the situation. The question is how... - make Miller's output~ an object in extra, and make it the default output~ - replace [output~] in those patches with something like rradical/ ezdac~ in the build process - other ideas? .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://at.or.at/hans/
