I would recommend J. Sarlo's joystick-external. It works on all OSses AFAIR.

If definitely does not run on Mac OS X. [hid] is the only way to get
HID data from Mac OS X with Pd.

Hi,
How can I stop a movie clip [pix_film] on his last frame?
It seem´s that the 3rd outlet of [pix_film] object doesn´t work.
(on MacOS 10.3.9 _ PD-0.38.4-extended-RC7).
Thks.

if you know the f/sec of the clip and do not need the audio which it
plays automatically on os x, then it's easy:
just don't use the auto play function but use a counter to display
frame by frame..
the 2rd outlet of [pix_film] will give you the total number of frames
in the movie, so just let the counter stop at the last one.
if you need an example patch write again.

Since Hans pointed out it doesn't work under OSX, I think the next best option is for me to write an external that uses SDL calls to read from the joystick, since that library works on all platforms. Will report back here when that's done.

does this mean that [multio] will never work for osx, even if i or someone else does eventually compile the external?
If MultIO shows up as a HID device, then it'll work right now with
[hid] on Mac OS X.

Or use an abstraction, which wraps [hid] for OS-X and uses [joystick] on Windows. Linux users can make their own choice.

When I started [hid], I explored many options including SDL. It
provides a very limited interface to the devices, but is relatively
easy to use. I suppose an SDL object would be useful in specific
circumstances, like on obscure platforms. Do you have a specific
problem with [hid] besides not working on Windows?
You could also join Olaf Matthes, David Merrill, and I on working on
the next generation of [hidin]/[hid]/[input_noticer] that will work
on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. By lucky chance, David was in NYC
so we met yesterday about this. And by another lucky chance, Olaf is
getting into NYC and we are going to be meeting about this soon.

Not at all. If [hid] was working on Windows, and easy to compile on Linux, I think I'd go with that.

That sounds really cool. I look forward to a time when it's easy to get joystick events into Pd in a cross-platform way. In the meantime I might write a very simple SDL external to do just what I need, or persue Frank's idea of wrapping [joystick] and [hid] depending on the platform. I'd definately switch to what you guys are working on once it's working on all platforms though.
Best,
Chris.

Yes, being able to easily connect a joystick on any platform should be a right, not a privilege within PD. :) We'll be getting started asap. Also, in general I think that there are neat possibilities for hacking other off-the-shelf hardware for instrument-building - to build the sensor into another instrument. Like many of the new wireless optical mice that have been released for really cheap lately.. For less than $10USD, they present a cheap, wireless 2D motion sensor that will also work with HID. Also, I'm looking forward to the price coming down on these: http://www.gizmodo.com/gadgets/peripherals/cut-the-cord-usb-runs-free-with-f... Power it with a battery and build it into your device, and your instrument can have several such hacked USB peripherals connected wirelessly back to your PC-as-synth. cheers, -David

hi, list
sorry if this has been asked before, but i'm still not sure about it:
is there any working [hid] or [hidin] external for XP ? i learned olaf matthes has made one some time ago but
http://www.akustische-kunst.org/
seems to be down or closed. can anybody help ?

[hidin] is included in the Pd-extended nightly builds. Work has just
started on [hidio], which is the next generation of [hid] It will
support Windows. No release date yet, we are working on it.

I've now checked into my CVS a new version which fixes a few bugs, and most importantly a bug in joystick.py which ate all the CPU. Would be cool if people tried it out again. I still can't get it to work on my girlfriend's Windows machine though.
