Hi listers~
I'm trying to use cyclone/counter to manipulate video. I know all about making your own counters and such, but at this point I just want something to play my videos with the methods included in the cyclone counter, so why reinvent the wheel, right? (Especially when doing updown counting, anyone w/ an elegant, no spaghetti solution?)
So I came across a bug, in that setting the min value of the counter has no effect, it always ranges between zero and the max value. I am using Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc1 on OS X 10.4.9.
Thank you!

I think there is a bug in the tracker, if not please file one.

Bug filed! It looks like jmmmp reported this back in August 2006.

hmm, i do not know the Max [counter], but cyclone usually tries to imitate all bugs found in the original objects.
as for setting "min" it works fine, if you use a [min $1( message. using the 3rd inlet does do something: it sets the current counter value (but without outputting it immediately like inlet4; so you have to bang it to see an effect).
this is clearly not as it is described in the help-patch, but probably the original Max [counter] and it's help patch have the same inconsistency.
apart from that, i noticed that the counter-help.pd is buggy anyhow, since the [min( and [max( messages are documented via the [min] and [max] objects, which definitely does not lead to the desired result.
so: does krzysztof still maintain cyclone? (haven't heard from him since some time) can someone confirm the correct behaviour of [counter]? it would be simple to fix (and even more so the help-patch)

and this is what the comments say at the relevant lines in the source code:
/* CHECKED: no resetting of min, nor of max (contrary to the man) */
so i guess it is a bug by intention.

Ok, I will use the [min $1( message. I was too unobservant to notice that the help patch used [min $1] instead! Thanks. It seems ridiculous to keep this bug, since Max has probably fixed it. But I don't use Max, so I don't know.
If I were to update the help patch, is it as simple as uploading it through the bug tracker interface, or do I have to somehow submit to cvs?

If you have access to the CVS, then check it in directly. Otherwise
submit the updated patch to the patch tracker. Or add it to the bug
report and change it to a "Patch".

Krzysztof didn't write the help patches anyway, so I'd say, feel free to check in an updated pd-file.
