Hi,
In Pd Extended, pix_blobtracker doesn't work because it contains objects from the iemmatrix library which is not included at startup. I guess I can fix that by manually loading those directories, but pix_blobtracker also uses a [mtx_*] object that doesn't seem to exist in the iemmatrix library.
Is mtx_* somewhere else? Or has it been replaced by mtx_mul?
Is pix_blobtracker the recommended way to track multiple blobs or has it been superseded by some other abstraction or object?
thanks m.
The issue of mtx_* not creating on PdX and how to solve has come up on this list several times now so you might check the archives. Yes mtx_* is an abbreviation for mtx_mul. pix_blobtracker works well for me in PdX --- just used it on a project last week. IOhannes mentioned it on the list just a few months ago as a way to track blobs so I think it's as current/good as any ready-made solution for this that I know of. I had to do the same fiddling as you to get it to go.

exactly.
you can find that by doing :
grep -nw mtx externals/iem/iemmatrix/src
if you have the source code (a svn checkout)
Then the name will be in doublequotes, and one of the two uses of it is in a class_addcreator statement, which is usually about making aliases.

It's best to pretend that iemmatrix is missing from pd-extended and just compile it on your own as a single -lib.
Patrice Colet worked on the problem, but I don't remember in which version of Pd-Extended it got included, and you didn't say which version of Pd-Extended you are trying to use.
