Well, the question is how the audio is getting to the user. As you said, WebPd requires FF4's audio API. If you want the actual Pd running on a server then you need a way of hearing the output. In my own pd-on-the-web project, PuréeData, I'll be using an mp3 or ogg stream. Latency will be an issue, but hopefully not a tremendously bad one. ——t3db0t On Mar 29, 2011, at 11:00 AM, Pierre Massat wrote: > I think you should all read this: > https://wiki.mozilla.org/Audio_Data_API > > and this: > http://weblog.bocoup.com/web-audio-all-aboard > > I believe it only works in Firefox 4 at the moment. > > If i wanted to use Pd to generate sound for a web application, i'd have to > keep an instance of Pd running on the server continuously, right?
