Hi Enrike,
1 test - Open my patch on PD / create xsample / create xgroove~ / click or try to move xgroove~ or some pd subpatch in the same patch : Pd crashes
2 test - open pd / create xsample / create xgroove~ / click and move xgroove or any other object or atom on the same patch: No crash
i haven't been able to reproduce this yet... would be great to have comments from other users.
I decided to do some step by step tests as this looks pretty weird problem. I guess somebody should have reported something similar at some point.
I downloaded the latest versions of the externals and different versions of PD again, and tested it on my previous laptop that has the same OS, this is 10.3.9 . It runs fine there (powerbook G4, 1.2) but not on the current one (iBook G3, 500mhz)
Then i went and installed the latest externals on my current setup. Using han's pd 0.38.4-extended-RC8 I decided to copying parts of my patch int a new patch to see if there was some problem in some part of the patch.
I found out that the problem was coming from a pd dsp 1 message
So, basically I get the crash by doing this: load PD create xsample object (or load it on startup) start dsp create xgroove click somewhere in the patch click on the xgroove object or other object on the patch release mouse click somewhere else -- here is the crash after couple of secs not responding to mouse clicks Note that in this case after creating the xgroove object, i can still create more objects like + or osc~, messages, numbers. It is only when i click in one of them that the crash happens. Funnyly enough clicking on the + object does not crash pd. So i am really puzzled.
I can also do it the other way around, launch pd, load xgroove then start dsp, here PD crashes. In this case the crash happens straight away.
I am going over it over and over again to see if i can find out what it is different on the previous computer set up and this one, but the only thing i can think of is the hardware and the apple's developer cd.
The error i get with millers 0.39-2 is that if py is loaded xample wont load and the other way around. I load them by creating py and xsample objects, i mean i am not passing the path on startup.
This sounds very much like http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1378927&gro...
which obviously has been fixed by Miller and should propagate into the pd-extended distro soon, if it hasn't yet.
ok, thanks
best greetings, Thomas
