Hi August,
I finally did it. Using flext, I've written an external that (at the moment) can play wav, ogg vorbis and mp3 data.
that's great!
d.) how do I properly terminate a thread in flext? at the moment the object hangs pd when you try to delete it. anybody?
You should use "ShouldExit()" in the thread function to check if the thread should terminate (and if it yields true just return from the function). See the flext tutorial example thread2 for reference.
best greetings, Thomas
