I was wondering if there is a possibility in PD to parse a message like "symbol /home/thomas/qt/regnbueromskip.mov" and then remove the "symbol" within that string?

Something like:

[symbol /home/thomas/qt/regnbueromskip.mov] <-- messagebox

| 
[route symbol]
|

[prepend read /home/thomas/qt/regnbueromskip.mov] <-- prepend object

Use the first outlet of the route object. You can also use the second as well, if your don't know for sure, that the filename has a symbol in front. [route] will route everything, that doesn't match, to the second outlet.

hola, thomas..

it's more simple than that,

[ playlist ] | | [ read $1 ( | | [pdp_qt]

will do what you want.

and then, how are your tuxes? still dancing?

ciao, sevy

Hello list,

I was wondering if there is a possibility in PD to parse a message like "symbol /home/thomas/qt/regnbueromskip.mov" and then remove the "symbol" within that string? It's a simple string. I need to prepend a read message to the specific file to read it into pdp_qt from Yves Degoyons playlist object. For some reason it doesn't send a message, but a message with a symbol identifier in front. prepending it doesn't work.

Something like:

[symbol /home/thomas/qt/regnbueromskip.mov] <-- messagebox | [remove the symbol and space] <-- ???? object | [prepend read /home/thomas/qt/regnbueromskip.mov] <-- prepend object

Any examples? Thanks in advance!
