Hello, I use pd-0.39.2-extended-test5 on a ibook G4 with Mac OsX 10.4. I try to use "pix_multiblob" object but I don't know how find the valures of others blobs than the first one. In reference, patch show a "pd_showblob 1" only but I want others blobs.
[pix_multiblob] outputs the data as a matrix as used by iemmatrix.
the format is rather simple, as it is a message: "matrix <#r> <#c> <a_1_1> <a_1_2> ... <a_1_#c> <a_2_1> ... <a_#r_#c>"
in short: "matrix 2 3 10 20 30 7 6 5" denotes a matrix 2x3 matrix: 10 20 30 7 6 5
(btw, it is always a good idea to just inspect the actual message you want to understand with a [print], so you see the entire message)
the number of cols of the matrix output by [pix_multiblob] is fixed (8 iirc), the number of rows is variable and equals the number of detected blobs. so [pd showblob 1] just discards the selector "matrix" and the 1st 2 values of the remaining list (the #rows & #cols) and unpacks the next 8 elements; the rest is discarded.
using iemmatrix will really help you a lot with the matrix-messages.
Another problem is "pix_blobtracker" object are not running in my computer.
[pix_blobtracker] uses iemmatrix for further processing; you need to have this library installed (and loaded) to make use of [pix_blobtracker].
Thanks for your lights and sorry to my poor english!
probably it might be good to add an option to [pix_multiblob] which would output the data in a more simple (though less compact) format.

Thanks for your answer but I don't know how I can use the matrix. I don't find any doc or help-file about matrix, mtx,... It is possible to send me a little code, for example the pix_multiblob-help.pd modified to recognize 2 blobs with their valures. Thanks again. Arno LIEGEON
