Yeah the error I got with Pd 0.47.1/ Gem 0.93.3 is: "filmQT: Could not initialize quicktime: error -209"
I DID install Quicktime and error went away but again, Quicktime on Windows is now depreciated so in the future....? Also, Pd now resides on the Desktop which is where is will be in the lab, at least for a few weeks. I had to make a relative shortcut to ..\bin\pd.exe with: "%windir%\system32\cmd.exe /c start "" "%CD%\bin\pd.exe"" also to load Gem automatically (i do not know where plist,etc. type file is on Windows to do this automatically) I added: "pd_connect::pdsend "pd startup-dialog 0 + +Gem"" to my custom foo-plugin Now at this point IT guys just have to cp folder to Desktop and students can easy just open folder, click Pd shortcut, Gem loads, etc Am I doing this all right? So far everything seems to work OK. I am getting: "Unable to connect filters -2147220969" when loading [open ../data/homer.avi} which is the win32 example in [pix_film] example..... In spite of this example DOES seem to work fine. Will need more testing though. m On Fri, Jul 8, 2016 at 10:59 AM, Py Fave <[email protected]> wrote: > 93.3 should work , and is quite stable > but it's old. > > check in autobuilds. there > > http://apt.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/ > > these are auto builds of puredata+ gem + other externals > > > and tell me how it works > > I will have to do the same a bit later, > > so please keep us informed. > > some people had problems on recent gem install because of a missing dll, > that you can find elsewhere (msvcr**.dll iirc) > > > check on this list's archive. > > there are other ways , notably installing an external that lets you > download others. > > -- Deken > > https://github.com/pure-data/deken#download > > Please tell me what worked for you. > > > 2016-07-07 15:20 GMT+02:00 me.grimm <[email protected]>: > >> Hello, >> >> I have not touched pd on windows in several years so please excuse it >> this has been addressed. >> >> Is there a recent build of Gem for Windows?
