Hallo!
Is there a maximum file size that Pd will read?
This question is very interesting for me too. Does anybody out there know the answer?
yes, it is/was 2 GB - IOhannes just wrote a patch that you can play bigger files ...
yes, but this patch a) only applies to soundfiles (although i think it would be trivial (on the C-side of things) to also enable pd-patches that are larger than 2GB) and b) it only works on linux (although i was amazed that it didn't work on osX; from w32 i did not expect to support open64() and friends; this is not intended to be a flamewar, as i am pretty sure that there are simple ways to open large-files on this platform too, but i hadn't had the time and need(!) to port it to w32 too...)
