I need more info to know what's going on.  First off, which version are you using (i.e. the numbers not "the most recent")?  A log of what's in the Pd window would be useful.  Here's how: 

- launch Pd
- in the Preferences -> StartUp, add "-stderr" to the "startup flags"
- click "Save all settings"
- quit Pd
- start Pd again
- send the [print( message to [hid]
- use [hid] until it crashes
- launch /Applications/Utilities/Console.app
- in Console.app, copy the stuff from Pd (looks the same as in the Pd window)
- paste this in an email and send it here.

I am using version 0.6 of HID and it still keeps crashing. It seems like this might be local to my computer. Is there any way I can check if that's true?

Thanks!

Yeah, that was a stupid bug to make it into a release... try the latest test release, it should work better.  Otherwise, I'll fix it :)

Hello list. I'm relatively new to PD and I'm trying to see how HID works in it. I'm using the most recent version of PD-Extended, the preference files are fine, and I'm running OS X 10.4.8 on a PPC Powerbook.

I can't seem to get [hid] to work. I can create the [hid] object and it seems to be ok...there's a slight pause in the system as it seems like it needs to load something. When I try to open the help file to figure out how to use it, PD crashes.

Looking through the archives, I've been unable to find an answer for this, so I have to assume I'm the only one having the problem.

Any advice on how to proceed would be greatly beneficial.

Thanks!
