by the way, i send here this patch that uses only pdp ( and you need playlist too ) that will crash pd, for sure.

and the crashes are located in libquicktime.

enjoy! sevy

hi,

the fact that you load pidip is not really the reason, libquicktime produces various and random crashes and that's why we will get rid of it soon ( we will recommend using theora files in next version )..

there's not so much to do about these quicktime crashes, i tried several versions of it and it's getting worse everyday.

so, i suggest you wait next version.

suerte, sevy

Hi, I have installed pdp, and I have tried the patch of example: /pure-data/externals/pdp/doc/introduction/quicktime.pd I have loaded a movie (14 Mg) and all has worked perfectly.

After I have installed pidip I reopen the same patch and if the libs (pdp/pidip) are both loaded when I load the same movie and try to start it PD close with this error message: Segmentation fault socket receive error: Connection reset by peer (104)

I run jackd -d alsa and pd -jack -rt

What I have mistaken ? Apologize if it is a basic question.

sorry, here are the facts from long-testing period :

a/ the best libquicktime is still the 0.9.1, but it has big memory leaks, especially if you switch your movies very fast. after a while, of course, it will crash

b/ the newest libquicktime ( 0.9.2, 0.9.3 ) will crash earlier

c/ you still have the alternative to play movies with pdp_live~ ( mpeg, avi ) but this object need some enhancements ( autoplay, frame seeking, .. ) that i'm doing right now.

d/ in the long run, it would be better to do a native theora reader ( using libtheora ), hoping that this will work better ( and anyway, we'll get a better support for it ).

of course, any help is appreciated to help us improving this situation.

saludos, sevy

it's running for 15 minutes now no crashes

pdp 0.12.3 pidip 0.12.14 libquicktime-0.9.2_pre1

tested with a folder loaded with 30 sec clips generated by pdp_rec~ (jpg/twos)

...

by the way, i send here this patch that uses only pdp ( and you need playlist too ) that will crash pd, for sure.

ok indeed pd just died in my arms after 1h45 running 4 instances of this patch and directories with a lot of movies ... eating all the available memory until nothing left then ... rip...
