Hi IOhannes,

I was referring to the message that comes with this version of Pd-X.
 From the console: /WARNING: 64-bit builds are still beta, some libraries are 
known to have serious issues (cyclone, maxlib, moonlib, moocow, pdp, bsaylor, 
etc.) For more info, see the README.txt in '64-bit-warning-plugin' in the Help 
Browser/

Thanks for your help I followed your instructions and found that I have both gem_imageTIFF.so 
and gem_imageMAGICK.so so I disabled gem_imageTIFF.so and now Pd no longer crashes however 
"GEM: Unable to save image..." with [pix_write]. I tried [pix_writer] but it doesn't 
respond to a [file <name>( or a [bang( and there is no help that I can find. Would you 
mind explaining how to use [pix_writer] please. Then if I can get it working I'd be happy to 
write a help patch for it.

cheers

    why? what?
    what exactly are you referring to with "the 64th bit"?
    how is it buggy?

     > but according to my searching [pix_write] has had issues for a while?

    if it does has issues with PdX-0.43.3 then it will have these issues
    forever. i don't think anybody will make a bugfix version of this PdX
    release ever...rather a new shiny PdX-0.45.6 might come out...

    in any case:
    - [pix_write] is deprecated in favour of [pix_writer] (which takes the
    incoming PIX to write, rather than creating a snapshot of the current
    framebuffer). the deprecation happened because [pix_write] is flawed by
    design rather than any bugs.

    - which imageplugins are you using? search for files called
    "gem_image*.so" in your extra/Gem/ folder.
    if you have both gem_imageTIFF.so and gem_imageMAGICK.so try disabling
    one of them (just rename it to something not starting with "gem_" && not
    ending with ".so, e.g. gem_imageTIFF.so.disabled) and see if it helps;
    if not try disabling the other one. the MAGICK plugin should be the
    preferred one.
