re-hallo
in fact I have the same eat-up-memory problem with pix_buffer... (I have to quit pd to solve the problem.....)
Maybe u know an objet to refresh pd's memory?

hallo!
I have no problem of file path with pix_write? I observe the same problem with memory, I think it's a problem of pix_image & pix_multiimage ? (both crash pd and I don't have to wait for a long time...) I make some test with pix_buffer, but the problem is when you want to create buffer with loot of images.... and for that pix_image is cool because the frames dont stay in the memory (in theory? maybe this cause the crash?)
P.s: nice trick to control the pix_write index :) p.p.s : I'm on Osx 10.5 using pd-0.41.4-extended-20090413

hi list,
i've thrown together this tiny gem patch which makes a timelapse slideshow. i have encountered a few issues with it.
configuration: Pd version 0.41.4-extended-20090223 GEM: ver: 0.91.3 'tigital' GEM: compiled: Feb 23 2009 OS X 10.5.6
the issues:
- pix_write doesn't interpret the file path correctly. it seems it can't
understand relative paths at all.
- pix_write accepts a message [file <file> [<type>](. it creates files
with a .jpg ending if the type is >0. But in reality it still is a TIFF. no matter what value you write.
- pix_write creates files with an acending number 0...9999 this conflicts
with how other objects like pix_multiimage do it (00000...99999)
just submitted that to the gem bugtracker.
and the patch: put this to / because of the bug in pix_write to make it work. put a folder called "frames" beside it.
beware: this patch will also eat up all the memory and will crash pd. this isn't pix_writes problem though - i'll try to find out why this is now.
