Hi I just filed a bug report with the Gem bug tracker on this, but I might have jumped the gun: does anybody have [pix_freeframe] working on OS X?
For me pix_freeframe segfaults on OS X 10.4.11 with Pete Warden's freeframe plugins. (Untested with other freeframe plugins, but I would expect the same behavior). This is Pd-extended 0.40.3 nightly autobuild from Dec 27ish, 2008. Intel MacBook.
Plugins were downloaded here: http://www.petewarden.com/PetesPlugins_Mac.zip
And these were also tried (probably exactly the same): http://www.troikatronix.com/files/petes-plugins-ub.dmg
With the current directory hierarchy of Pete's Plugins, pix_freeframe could not find the plugins. So the the plugin binaries were moved to be directly underneath its corresponding directory i.e. the wave binary (filename: wave) was moved from Wave.frf/Contents/MacOS/ to Wave.frf/
After moving the binaries, pix_freeframe went from not finding the plugins to crashing when the pix_freeframe object was created.
pix_freeframe appears to work fine with these same plugins in Linux 32 bit (ubuntu 8.10). I haven't yet gotten the plugins to build successfully on Linux 64 bit to test. I found the Linux plugins here: http://www.mndl.hu/freeframe/petespluginslinux
