Hey!
I just did a quick hack of wrapping the timecoder.c code from xwax into a flext external, so the timecoder can be used in pd or max/msp (dunno about v5) and be used for stuff like scratching videos and alike. The timecoder supports serato and traktor vinyl and outputs mainly the pitch and position of the needle on the vinyl. This is a very small and easy hack but it works: http://karhumusic.sesser.at/vinylcontrol.tar.gz Documentation is in the tarball as vinylcontrol.pd patch with some comments. I left the binaries in the tarball as some might have problems building the external (... next time I should not forget to delete the binaries with debug symbols, heh...).
Enjoy, so long... Niklas
