Hello,

In my VJ patches with GEM I use internal messages for building freeframe's necessary objects (pix_freeframe and some OSC routing), in one array where the GEM streaming run through send/receive objects.

David Powers cyborgk@gmail.com a écrit : Okay that could be. I redid my entire VJ interface, so there are some loose ends, and these plugins aren't even currently doing anything anyway, just sitting in a subpatch in reserve, as I debug and try to decide which effects I actually will use.

On the minus side, PD+Gem runs at 80 - 100% CPU. This might be worse, because in debugging there are some unnecessary GUI objects open while running.

On the plus side, I was able to leave PD & Gem playing all night and it was still running just fine when I woke up this morning, on WinXP. So far everything seems reliable, so I just worry that the freeframe plugins could be a weak link that sends everything crashing.

I'll be running visuals for 4-6 hours Saturday night for my first big show (the UR one), so it's pretty important to me that things be stable.

Looks like that error comes from trying to pass a parameter to the plugin without one loaded. I didn't write the freeframe loader for GEM and don't know much about the plugins.

Can anyone tell me why I get the following message in Gem (new version, winXP, miller's 0.39.2)? How many instances can I have? What does this mean exactly?

error: pix_freeframe: no instance of plugin available

Thanks, David

Hello, I've found out that this message is also appearing when the gem stream with a texture doesn't come to pix_freeframe

a plugin-instance is bound to a specific image-size/format. since [pix_freeframe] does not know which image-size you are going to process before you haven't send at least one image to the object, an instance of the plugin is only created after the first image appears.

parameter-changes are local to the plugin-instance, so you can only change the parameters, once you have an instance of the plugin which you don't have before the first image. when you change the image-size during processing, a new instance of the plugin will be created (the old one is destroyed); this means, that you have to reset any parameters you have set before.
