Juto,
if you are into flash (which comes with socket capabilities) you can try the following:
flashserver external from Olaf http://www.akustische-kunst.org/puredata/flash/flash.html
flosc http://www.benchun.net/flosc/
otherwise, you can come pretty darn far with the 'netsend' and 'netreceive' objects inside of pd.
to experiment. make a netreceive external on say, port 3000 with a print object hanging off of it. then, telnet to localhost on port 3000 and type in stuff like "hallo; how is it going;"
you should then see the same text printed out by pd. dont forget the ";"'s. thats the end-of-line char for pd.
here is also a basic perl server, good for all purposes: http://www.devshed.com/Client_Side/Flash/XMLSockets/page3.html
it also explains how to use flash as a client.
good luck - august.
Hello, i would like to build a patch to control audio on internet for many users (everyone could send audio to the patch or control synthesis and could also hear their work in real time)... i've hard about different projects and also some objects... but i'm not quite sure about which objects could be the more approriate one to do this. Maybe do you know which one could fit to this project? or maybe do you have some idea on how build this patch???
thanks you for your help
best
juto
