Hi Filippo,
You may want to reach out to Kent Jolly. He gave a talk on the use of
Pd at Electronic Arts last year. He's also interested in libpd.
I'm not familiar with PS3 development, but the basic setup of libpd in
a new environment is always the same. Since libpd doesn't have any
dependencies, you can just drop it into your project (as long as you
have a C compiler, that is). Then you wire the process callback of
libpd into the audio components of your environment (if your audio
environment offers a callback-driven API like JACK or PortAudio, that
just takes a few lines of code).
The only part that requires thought is concurrency. Chances are that
the process method will be invoked on a separate thread, while control
messages will come from another thread. That requires some sort of
synchronization. The easiest way to do that is with mutex locks, but
there are other ways if you'd rather avoid locks. Feel free to refer
your developers to me if they have questions.
Cheers,
Peter

Hi Simon, thanks for the quick reply!
ah, seems like not much has happened since then.. I'm pretty sure it is
doable with lbpd (correct me if I am horribly wrong), but what would be
great is to have someone show up saying "I've done it and it works!" so that
I can convince our programmers to integrate PD ;)

Hi all,
Now my question: does anyone have practical experience with porting PD to
PS3? Does it run smoothly? Is it easy to do so?
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated :)
there was a discussion back a few years regarding this ...
the archives show these threads:
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-11/056300.html
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-07/052174.html
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-12/058006.html
that was 5 years ago of course, but it was ported and used at that time, in
house by Sony at least ... but that port was not released (most of Pd
vanilla is not copyleft or GPL ... but rather a more liberal license ... so
keeping the port closed is OK by the license).
