ola,

In the meantime, I've dropped my search for pdp_ffmpeg~ and switched to trying

pdp_theonice~

nice decision. note, it will only be useful if you connect to an icecast > 2.2... or one from : http://mediacast1.com/~karl/

However, I run into the same problem: pd can't create it, along with several

other objects, including

pdp_charcoal, pdp_i (but pdp_o is okay) and pdp_icedthe~

pdp_theonice~ and pdp_icedthe~ are available from PiDiP 0.12.18 on... so that's normal you don't have them in 0.12.17.

pdp_charcoal is an abstraction, so you must lack the path to where the abstraction is. you can use the -path option from pd to set it right.

concerning pdp_i, i don't understand, should be there along with pdp_o, the help patch id called help-pdp_streaming.pd.

suerte, sevy
