sorry if i haven't follow all discussions on the subject, but what is the status now of pd on a 64 bits architecture? more precisely, on an intel core duo
It was my first excursion into Linux so not realising the problems
(then lack of time to redo things) meant I installed the debian
puredata packages on an AMD64 (with 64 bit Kannotix) - I have to be
careful as there are a number of things that will crash it, and I
have a very limited choice of codecs but it works reliably enough to
go on a tour through 5 venues without any intervention from me.
I use mainly Gem with 4 composite video inputs (v4l) for a quite nice
video mixer with 3D object animation - all controlled from another
machine with joysticks and a BCF200 via netsend/netreceive, as one of
several networked machines running different projectors - so I
haven't tried audio, though it seems to open jack etc without complaint.
