Hello list. I'm relatively new to PD and I'm trying to see how HID works in it. I'm using the most recent version of PD-Extended, the preference files are fine, and I'm running OS X 10.4.8 on a PPC Powerbook.
I can't seem to get [hid] to work. I can create the [hid] object and it seems to be ok...there's a slight pause in the system as it seems like it needs to load something. When I try to open the help file to figure out how to use it, PD crashes.
Looking through the archives, I've been unable to find an answer for this, so I have to assume I'm the only one having the problem.
Any advice on how to proceed would be greatly beneficial.
Thanks!

Hi Clifford,
I've seen this problem on OS X a lot in my workshops. [hid] works fine, but something in the help file crashes it. Has to do with one of the messages in the help patch causing [hid] to try to open one of the built-in Mac HID devices (trackpad, keyboard, etc), which it doesn't like.
Here's a quick fix: open the [hid] help patch in TextEdit or some other text editor, and change the creation argument to something above the number of built in Mac HID devices. [hid 5] should work, for example. Remember to save as extension .pd! Then you should be able to open the help patch and get more information.
best, d.

Thanks Derek,
Doing this did help me open the help file. However, a new can of worms has opened from this.
I can't seem to find much helpful information about the [hid] object in the helpfile. In fact, the only time the [hid] object appears in this patch it doesn't have any inlets or outlets. Maybe it's not necessary. I would like to know what these in/outlets are for this object though.
Also, the [hid] object does seem to be directly responsible for my crashes. It's rather irregular, but if I click on the object enough, PD will definitely crash. I've tried to create an [hid] object without a physical device (i.e. [hid 5]), but the crashing will still happen.
Are there people regularly using HID with OS X?
Thanks again,

I have also been having HID problems lately on OSX Tiger w/ the latest test build of extended. It crashes when trying to open higher device numbers.
Also, only the analog d-pad for my game pad works, but not the buttons. The game pad works with snes9x for gaming, so it must be HID. It used to work on earlier builds, so it may be something with the latest version.

i had the same issue: abs values worked, but not the buttons.
solved by replacing the hid external in the extended package with the
newest one

Like which device numbers? Could you send more info, like a
transcript of the stuff in the Pd window?

This is actually most likely to be a shoddy USB HID descriptor in the
USB device, which what the OS uses to know what data to expect from
the device. If the OS can't get the data, then [hid] can't either.
What do you get in the Pd window when you send a [print( message to
[hid]? You should see a listing of the elements for that device as
given by the OS. If something is listed there that is not showing up
in Pd space, that's most likely a bug in [hid]. If it is not listed
there, that's most likely a bad USB implementation on the device,
which is sadly quite common.

Here is what the Pd window gives me for the print method in hid. It appears to detect the sidewinder (my gamepad) in all its glory, but the buttons do not register when pressed. I tried using the test option in the help patch to no avail as well. The gamepad should be fine, since I was using it with hid last year, and it works with other applications.
On my system with the below configuration, devices listed 5 and above crash Pd.
Hope that helps!

So if you do this:

Do you get any events at all? This is an odd bug that's hard to

I need more info to know what's going on. First off, which version
are you using (i.e. the numbers not "the most recent")? A log of
what's in the Pd window would be useful. Here's how:

The latest release, which you can get at the URL I sent you, will
have [hid] v0.7, which should work better.

I am using version 0.6 of HID and it still keeps crashing. It seems
like this might be local to my computer. Is there any way I can
check if that's true?Thanks! Clifford Dunn www.myspace.com/clifforddunn

Yeah, that was a stupid bug to make it into a release... try the
latest test release, it should work better. Otherwise, I'll fix it :)http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html

Hello list. I'm relatively new to PD and I'm trying to see how HID
works in it. I'm using the most recent version of PD-Extended, the
preference files are fine, and I'm running OS X 10.4.8 on a PPC
Powerbook.I can't seem to get [hid] to work. I can create the [hid] object
and it seems to be ok...there's a slight pause in the system as it
seems like it needs to load something. When I try to open the help
file to figure out how to use it, PD crashes.Looking through the archives, I've been unable to find an answer
for this, so I have to assume I'm the only one having the problem.Any advice on how to proceed would be greatly beneficial.
Thanks!
