You need to refresh the midi dialog by banging this:
[; pd midi-dialog 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 4 4(
first 4 = input device numbering (might be different than "1 2 3 4", e.g. "2 0 0 0") next 4 = output device numbering (might be different than "1 2 3 4") #9 = number of input devices (1-4) #10 = number of output devices (1-4)
Same thing for audio-dialog:
[; pd audio-dialog n1 n1 n1 n1 n2 n2 n2 n2 n3 n3 n3 n3 n4 n4 n4 n4 n5 n6(
n1 = inputs device numbers n2 = number of input channels per device n3 = outputs device numbers n4 = number of output channels per device n3 = sample rate n6 = delay in milliseconds
Making an automatic refresh is a bit difficult.
I did it by monitoring the dev folder (or actually I created a subfolder for my known devices and I'm monitoring changes with
[hcs/folder_list /dev/"mididevice-subfolder-name"/*] every 3 seconds.
When a change is detected it bangs [; pd midi-dialog 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 4 4( So all of my "known" devices (by udev names) are mounted automatically. For unknown devices I need to execute a [bang] on [; pd midi-dialog 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 4 4(

Never worked for me (for audio devices neither), I always had to restart Pd :- (. Also with audio devices.

Hi all, does anyone know if it's possible to "refresh" the MIDI device list while Pd is running? i.e. you plug a new device on run.
