what do you get when trying to open the files  with relative filenames
(without OSC)?

The same error!
Looks that I need to provide the absolute path cause I cannot open the file
even if I place it in the same patch's path.
I guess the solution will be using [getdir], as I read in a thread similar
to this, to dinamically get the patch's path (this app should work in
different computers so this is needed).

Another question I have related to oggread~ is; I'm using it cause, as you
can imagine, I can play .ogg files @ 320kbs that weight a quarter the .aif
ones weight, but does it take much more cpu process?(aslong as it has to
decode the file I supose there must be some computational cost in addition)
Thanx! (pd-list kicks ass, awesome people!)
