Hi, Roman !

Maybe off-topic, but i thought i'd mention it:

I recently had good success with remote controlling VLC player from within PD. i don't know if this helps in your setup, but at least VLC might still be around the next years ;-)

Basically what you do is: You start vlc (or "cvlc" - the command line version of vlc) invoking a TCP remote control address.

I actually started vlc from within PD with the [command] external:

[exec /usr/bin/cvlc -I rc --rc-host=localhost:7777(
|
[command]

this way you can send remote control messages to

[netsend -b] [initiated with "connect localhost 7777")

(I'm not sure if the binary mode is needed but i used it anyway)


You can also receive information from cvlc this way. send a "help" message to get available commands or see for example here:

https://superuser.com/questions/767330/is-there-a-simple-audio-player-that-can-be-remote-controlled-with-udp-or-tcp-com


Sidenote:

Remote controlling MPLAYER is supposed to work in a similar way, but i didn't investigate it too much ...

Best

Oliver

This is the backtrace (not much useful info, libraries from
Debian seem not compiled with debug symbols):

They are compiled *with* debug symbols, but thesr are not shipped in
the "normal" packages (to keep them nice and small).
See <https://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace> on how to install
the debug symbols for a given package.

Ok, good to know! I will look into that.


which indicates  the problem is in the [readanysf~] playback and
not in
Pd or [mp3cast~].

Well if it happens only every few days, things might be related to
thread and/or memory management, which means that the cause of the
problem could be *anywhere*.

I see. I _did_ upgrade Pd. I will try to correlate dpkg-logs with start
of segfaults.


That it should be moved to the "pd-externals" repository so people
*can* give it some love in a discoverable place.

👍

Dear August

In case you read this, please state your intentions regarding the
further maintenance of [readanysf~]. We consider the external abandoned
and we plan to host it under the umbrella of the pd-externals group.


@IOhannes
What do you think of the gmerlin project that [readanysf~] depends on?
It seems still hosted in a subversion repository and hasn't had much
activity since ~2012. I saw some recent commits of yours and it seems
to be kept alive partially or fully due to your work/commitment. Will
it survive the next few years?

Roman
