hej, thanx for the info. I got something working now, that blocks off the update sigal ( going through a message ) when the slider is dragged, and sends the data to veejay to update 'current frame' ( an int) when this happens.
ugly, but functioning. though it seems to take a little time before it's running again.( less then half a second...) that's propably my dumb patch. I'll look into the matter when im finished with some other part of the project...and know more tricks... :)

Ok I understand: by using a message to set the new value, the slider does noet output it's new value, but if I use a number, trigger, or other slider, it outputs the value itself too.
Exactly.
Great, this means I have a difference between what goes in and what goes out, so in case of outgoing signal I can block the ingoing signal, giving the slider a bit smoother feeling ( like scratching an LP)
The "set" thing which works for a lot of objects is good for breaking up possible message loops. See attached patch for an example application of this.
