Hey Peter,

I don't have specific knowledge of this problem, but I can say that
it would be quite hard to track down with this amount of info. If
you can describe a reliable way to cause this crash, preferreably in
the form of a Pd patch, it would be much easier to fix.

This would be a good thing to file in the bug tracker, so that people
can add their info to it:

All people running our streaming patch on OSX seem to be having the same problem, (see message below) although the amount of time before a freeze seems to vary considerably - anywhere between a few hours and a few days- , which would seem to indicate some kind of memory leak within the oggcast~ object does anyone have any ideas about
this?

The same patch running under ubuntu or dynabolic woks perfectly...

I havn't included the patch with this message since it contains access codes to our serveur, however if someone wants it to run tests or indeed to take part in this project (We now have a new icecast server with unlimited bandwidth and are inviting people to set up more streams around the world). please email us :

Thanks Peter Sinclair

Hello,

I have updated to the latest version of PD-extended and the latest Locusonus patch, but the patch will run for a few hours then freeze pushing the CPU to about 80% (just with the patch). When I restart PD all is well for a few more hours.

I am running PD and Locusonus on a PPC G4 Mac with 1 gig of RAM and plenty of drive space. The OS X version is: 10.4.9

Does anyone have the same problem? Is there a possible fix? Am I overlooking something?

Thank you, Marc
