debugging sporadic hangs at startup
by Ivica Ico Bukvic 28 Sep '12

28 Sep '12

All, I am noticing sporadic GUI freezes when loading complex patches on startup. How would one go about debugging this when most of such startups happen by clicking on the app icon (so no access to gdb or console). Short of changing the app icon to make everyone's apps always start with gdb, is there a way to redirect debugging output to a file? On a related matter, any other users noticed these ocassional hangs when loading a complex patch (the window opens but remains blank and clicking on any options in the menu does nothing)?

Font usage in vanilla
by Julian Brooks 28 Sep '12

28 Sep '12

Hey all, I'm kinda stuck... I want to add a font (linux-libertine) for use in Pd vanilla, specifically for use with [cnv], and I'm not sure how to add it in. I've done this: julian@brooks:~/Desktop$ fc-match mono //suggested from here: http://puredata.info/docs/faq/faqsection_view?section=Problems%20and%20Fixes which gives this DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book" Which seems to be saying there's only one font available?!? Whereas I know this isn't the case as I can access 3 different fonts from within [cnv] already. I've also added the startup flag: -font-face "Libertine(and other such name variations)" where pd then seems to be looking for a 'Mono' folder? There wasn't one anywhere and after making one and putting the font inside still no joy. Pah - very confused. Noticeably in the notes for the most recent Libertine they have added a mono version so I'm presuming (dangerously) that "LinLibertine_M.otf" (no M_ttf available from sourceforge) is the one I'm after. So a few questions here I guess: 1. How can I change vanillas font 2. How and where does Pd do that 3. Does it have to be a mono .ttf 4. Can I see a list of available fonts 5. Anyone else making use of the lovely looking Libertine font????? Pd 0.43.2 - Debian Sid/Wheezy Many thanks in advance, Julian

Changing camera position in GEM with buffer set to 1
by Antonio Roberts 28 Sep '12

28 Sep '12

Is it possible to change the position of the camera in GEM when the buffer is set to 1? In my initial tests I've only been able to do this when I also send a bang to the GEM window. Even the [camera] object doesn't allow me to update the view Thanks Antonio -- ============================ antonio(a)hellocatfood.com http://www.hellocatfood.com ============================

[OT] Portable webserver with static IP
by Pierre Massat 27 Sep '12

27 Sep '12

Dear Pd-Listers, Sorry this obviously OT question. I'm trying to use my Raspberry Pi (yes I know, i'm also beginning to get fed up with its apparent ubiquity...) as by portable webserver. By portable I mean that i could carry it with me and plug it into any home router and make it accessible to every machine in the local network. The obvious problem i'm currently faced with is that of the IP given by the router to the RPi. I think it's possible to configure the RPi to have a static IP, but I have no idea how "portable" this solution is. Say, if I configured my RPi to alsways show up as 192.168.0.255, would this address work with every home router? Another option, perhaps : use the unique MAC address of my RPi ? I have no clue whether it is possible at all to connect to a local webserver using the MAC of its host. Any clue is more than welcome, i know practically nothing about networks. Cheers, Pierre.

[OT] Know of any live data streams (audio/video/img/txt)?
by Tyler Leavitt 27 Sep '12

27 Sep '12

Hello list, I'm looking to get my hands on some data to turn into sound. I was thinking web cams, streaming audio (harder to find ambient/landscapes, I know there's lots of radios [speech and music]), weather information, etc. Anything that is updated/streamed fairly consistently, perhaps by the minute would be the minimum I'm looking for. I can find traffic cams pretty easily... whatever you think would be interesting/hard to find. I'll share some of the stuff I find if this seems to pique interest. Thanks, Tyler

Writing a large sf from a source sf -without- array: How?
by Emin Durak 27 Sep '12

27 Sep '12

Hello! I have an algorithm (granular synthesis) with which I want to manipulate a sound file and create another file. In the patch I'm using there's an array ([soundfiler] + [tabread4~]). I would like to just automatically write sound files (same length) from the original files directly into hard drive. Array size limit is the reason I can't. Otherwise how can I do it? Any answer please appreciated. Thanks! Emin
