Pd-extended 0.41.4-rc3 released!
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 29 May '09

29 May '09

I think this is basically ready to go http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html Please test on Windows and give feedback! I haven't heard anything about Windows. It's looking ready for release, so please try it if you haven't already so we can find the last bugs. As far as I know, there aren't any outstanding bugs that need to be fixed for this release. So I think this is the release. Test away and file bugs in the bug tracker! http://puredata.info/dev/bugtracker This release candidate includes: * on GNU/Linux, corrected font size when using Tcl/Tk 8.5 * moocow/flite speech synth added on all platforms * fixed strict-aliasing build problems with cyclone, iemlib, bsaylor, and sigpack * (Windows) increased default audio buffer to 100ms since there are some really flaky audio cards in Windows land * (Mac OS X) decreased buffers to 20ms since all Apple hardware that I have tested in the past 7 years works with that KNOWN BUGS Check http://puredata.info/dev/bugtracker before reporting bugs, and if you find an existing bug report on the same issue, please add your information there. - Escape, Enter, and Ctrl/Cmd-W don't close the Path and Startup preferences - pdp_opengl is alpha and will definitely crash Pd - loading pdp_opengl will crash Pd if X11 is not open before trying to load it ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Access to computers should be unlimited and total. - the hacker ethic

preventing comport freezes
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 29 May '09

29 May '09

So right now, when [comport] is open and that device gets disconnected, comport freezes and Pd crashes. My guess is that comport is waiting and therefore blocking. It seems like the select() call should prevent that, any other guesses on how to prevent comport from locking like this? Many arduino users would be very happy. .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Programs should be written for people to read, and only incidentally for machines to execute. - from Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs

Its compiled with Jack support, but you'll need to install it on your machine. .hc On May 28, 2009, at 2:11 PM, Oded Ben-Tal wrote: > hello again, > > In trying to figure out why I can't get audio working on the new > release.

PS -- this Fedora hack almost works well for object and message boxes -- some of the mappings seem wrong (fiddling with the values in gnome on Fedora 10 changes nothing for me). This hack also doesn't affect font size for labels on gui objects (sliders, bangs, etc.) -- these are too large still. I haven't yet tried it in data structures. I have a feeling something awful is afoot. I'll post screenshot comparisons when I can get back to my fedora machine.

Tidy question
by Jonathan Wilkes 28 May '09

28 May '09

Hi list, Has anyone ever tried increasing the values for XTOLERANCE and YTOLERANCE in g_editor.c to improve the usefulness of "Tidy Up"? Like maybe jacking both values up to 14, for example? Currently, objects have to be within 4 vertical or 3 horizontal pixels of each other for "tidy up" to do anything at all. I would try it myself but I'm on windows and haven't yet investigated the whole build process. Thanks, Jonathan

bug in gemlist object?
by Doug Taylor 28 May '09

28 May '09

Hi List - This is my first post. I hope I'm not repeating old stuff, but reading the entire history of the list is a rather daunting prospect, so here goes. I'm running Pd 0.40.3 on Windoze (because I can't get the libraries to load on my lovely old G3 PowerPC OSX 10.3.9 box - but that's a separate issue). I have GEM 0.91.3 (CVS) I'm finding the documentation on the gemlist object a bit scant, and want to report that Pd hangs on the help patch for gemlist. The patch is attached. The first obvious problem is that the patch wants to destroy gemwin before it creates it. No sweat, change that, then run the patch, destroy gemwin, run it again and Pd hangs every time. I can only assume it's the gemlist object itself that is buggy, or perhaps the until object? I have the same problem in the patch I am trying to build which must dynamically generate hundreds of circle objects. I am having quite a bit of trouble achieving this, but I'm sure it's just because I'm a newbie to Pd. I am very impressed with what I have seen so far. Thanks to all the developers for a really wonderful tool! Can anyone help with above problem? I'd also appreciate some pointers on how to dynamically generate hundreds, even thousands, of geos per frame - is the gemlist object the answer to this problem? I'm not entirely clear on how it works. The documentation doesn't seem to agree with the usage - specifically, what does the cold inlet do? Thanks in advance Doogli

jack_transport improvements
by Jacob Lee 28 May '09

28 May '09

I've added some code to the jack_transport external (tb/jack_transport/ in pd-extended) to show the current bar/beat (and also bpm and tempo) in real time. Messages are only sent out when pd is computing audio, and also no more than once per beat (to avoid floods of messages). I'm not outputting all the available information from the jack transport -- e.g. the current tick within the beat -- either because it updates too quickly or because it's just not useful to me, but it would be trivial to add those. The motivation here is that I'm using klick -- http://das.nasophon.de/klick/ -- as the jack transport master (mainly to control sooperlooper), and now it is possible to trigger events within pd at particular beats or bar numbers. The code is available at http://artdent.homelinux.net/svn/jack_transport~/ . The makefile should be suitable for building jack_transport~ from inside a directory that is sibling to the existing jack_transport. I've only tested it on Linux, but it should work anywhere jack_transport does. I hope this external is useful to others. Suggestions for improvements are of course welcome. -- Jacob Lee artdent(a)gmail.com
