I've experienced this problem since 0.43 (vanilla and extended), I believe, but I haven't really investigated it, because it didn't happen that often and I wasn't able to reliably reproduce it. Now I figured out a way to reliably reproduce it. It seems the likeliness is related to jackd's latency settings. The shorter the latency, the likelier is pd going to freeze. With a setting of 128 frames/period and 2 periods/buffer, I can reliably freeze pd by turning DSP off and on. The problem seems related to the fact that switching DSP also switches the jack client on and off. I think the preferred way would be to be able to switch DSP on/off independently from switching audio back-end on/off. @Miller Are you still planning to seperate dsp switching from audio backe-end switching for 0.44?

Re: [PD] enhance pd-extended with pd-l2ork featues ?
How did you install pd-l2ork? If you tried compiling it yourself and did not have all the development libraries necessary for compiling Gem, then the installer would never build Gem and give you plenty of errors. On the software page I provided a list of Ubuntu packages you would need to compile entire package successfully. Pd-l2ork also comes with Gem being auto loaded when you start the app (using /usr/lib/pd-l2ork/default.pdl2ork), therefore it should just work if everything is been installed properly. Gem is built as a library and is located in /usr/lib/pd-l2ork/extra/Gem/Gem.pd_linux (or/usr/local... if you installed using script-based binary installer version). Again, I need as much information as possible about how you installed the software.

Re: [PD] pidip
I'm not aware of that. Perhaps you're thinking about how pidip should all be GPL, since it is based on GPL code. The GPL does not allow more license restrictions, and the pidip license does just that. So that means that the GPL code included in pidip is still GPL, but the code that sevy contributed is under his license, and those two licenses conflict. So basically, pidip is not legal to distribute in binary form because of the conflicting licenses within itself. Whether you choose to ignore copyright law is your decision. I am personally fine with people distributing pidip as its own thing and using it with any of my code as long as: 1) the pidip distro is clearly marked as non-free 2) pidip is not bundled with my GPLed code (i.e. as part of pd-extended, pd-l2ork, etc.) .hc On 02/06/2013 11:44 AM, John Harrison wrote: I thought there was an earlier version of PiDiP which was and could be included with Pd-extended because it was released under an acceptable/compatible license?

Re: [PD] Fwd: Re: enhance pd-extended with pd-l2ork featues ?
(also forgot to send to the list) Hi, 1. Why are you compiling gem separately when pd-l2ork compiles it for you and includes it with its binary package? 2. Why are you trying to use pd-vanilla includes with pd-l2ork (unless you are using pd instead of pd-l2ork)? The two are not compatible and as I indicated on the site with a huge warning box mixing the two will cause crashes and unexpected behavior. I use pd-vanilla or pd-extended depending on the project I work on. Since l2ork seems super robust, I'd like to give it a try. For this particular case, the idea was to test whever plain Gem fails to install the .so files or not. So I build it with vanilla as a general testcase. I don't mean to use this build on l2ork or extended. While I'm typing, my computer is building a fresh copy of pd-l2ork with PKGBUILD to see if everything is ok. Also I will take this as a occasion to see what files are in conflict with extended. It seems it's just cyclist, pdsend and pdreceive. So maybe just by renaming these it's possible to have pd-vanilla, pd-extended and pd-l2ork installed in /usr on the same system (how I do that at the moment is have all flavors in /opt/pd-flavor). I hope this makes my intentions clearer. -- Charles ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Fero, When making the PKGBUILD, please make sure to install the file pd-l2ork_git_folder/packages/linux_make/default.pdl2ork into the pd_install_folder/ (e.g. /usr/local/pd-l2ork/default.pdl2ork). You are also probably missing other file icons and shortcuts that are located in the same folder. Please investigate pd-l2ork_git_folder/l2ork_addons/tar_em_up.sh script and see what it does. Also, investigate makefiles in the pd-l2ork_git_folder/packages/linux_make/ folder to see what they do in addition to the core build scripts.

[PD] online video conferencing
Hi all, I am looking for an accessible way to do a video conference with multiple parties (4 or 5) for a telematic performance. The bandwidth is there and visual latency is not an issue in this case. Any ideas about a stable platform for this would be greatly appreciated. In the past I worked with Access Grid, which was quite stable, but is very tricky to install on Snow Leopard and doesn't work at all on Lion and later. It still works on Windows, but not all the parties can get a Windows system, Google Hangout should work (I haven't tested it yet) but it doesn't allow you, to my knowledge, to separate the video windows and reorganize them on the screen. There are some paid cloud-conferencing services that can work for this, but as far as I know they work on subscription. If you know of such a service that allows renting a video conferencing service temporarily that could be helpful too.

Dependencies: within Pd, you could be distributing patches that require some externals--I think it's best for a Pd package system to only reference dependencies that include other abstractions or externals, not system libraries.
