Hello,
Now, with Pd 0.46.7 you have [netsend -b]. It allows you to send a string in 'binary' mode (you don't need anymore to use the FUDI protocol used by netsend before).
Then, something like :
[list add file.mp4( | [l2s] <- from zexy library (there is vanilla solution for this) | [list fromsymbol] | [list append 10] | [list prepend send] | [list trim] | [netsend -b]
should work. ++

Hi, there. I'm trying to use PureData 0.46.7 to control VLC. Based on a patch in https://github.com/mxa/AudioVideoPatches, that uses Python code (pyext) to send TCP messages, I want to use [netsend] to send them, without Python.
I start VLC with:
vlc -I rc --rc-host=localhost:1234
And, in Pd:
[connect localhost 1234( | | [list add file.mp4( | [list prepend send] | [list trim] | / [netsend]
The connection is well done, but I discovered that the messages arrives with a ";" at the end of the message. For example, when I click on [list add file.mp4(, VLC says (sorry for the language):
[0x7f387c0044a8] filesystem access error: cannot open file /home/mario/file.mp4; (No such file or directory) [0x7f387c0044a8] main access error: Falló lectura de archivo [0x7f387c0044a8] main access error: VLC no pudo abrir el archivo «/home/mario/file.mp4;» (No such file or directory). [0x7f3888005ac8] main input error: open of `file:///home/mario/file.mp4%3B' failed [0x7f3888005ac8] main input error: Su entrada no puede abrirse [0x7f3888005ac8] main input error: VLC es incapaz de abrir el MRL «file:///home/mario/file.mp4%3B». Vea el registro para más detalles.
Also, I use a simple Python script (Server code in https://wiki.python.org/moin/TcpCommunication) to receive this messages and, when it does, it prints:
received data: b'add file.mp4;\n'
Ssome guys from #dataflow told me that the best workaround is to make a small program/app/script that strips semicolons. Yes, now I'm writing it... but I would not need another program to do this.
I've never reported a Pd bug. I'm writing this mail to you to know about this (maybe it is not necessary to report it)... and maybe someone knows another workaround.
Thank you.
