Hi all,
I've been experiencing a problem with running pd -rt -jack for some time now. After starting pd I get:
watchdog: signaling pd...
and of course pd doesn't respond to any commands. At some point I thought the problem was gone but it isn't.
Hi,
I couldn't reproduce until now, because my SBLive has a minimum latency setting of 512 samples.
Now, using the playback only trick I got down to 256 and ... I have the same behaviour.
I had this problem fixed in CVS once, but it seems that it got changed back, but it is quite easy to fix:
in s_inter.c, in the function sys_set_priority(int higher) change the line
p3 = (higher ? p2 - 1 : p2 - 3);
to
p3 = (higher ? p1 + 3 : p1 + 1);
.. let me know if it works
Thanks for reporting,
Guenter
PS: I will update the CVS as soon as sourceforge lets me.
I experienced this with recent 0.37 releases from Miller and from CVS (today I checked the latest tarball from Miller and did a CVS update). The interesting aspect of it is that if I run pd from within the releases's bin directory it behaves correctly. The above behaviour partains only to the version installed system-wide and only with the -rt -jack switches together.
my system: Mandrake 9.1, gcc 3.2.2, Mdk multimedia kernel 2.4.21, jack version 0.93.6, tcl/tk 8.3
I have seen a mention of this behaviour that had something to do with tk8.4 but it was working for me until recently. Perhaps it's only misconfiguration on my side?
I will be grateful for any ideas.
