[PD] Fwd: using PD to access URL based images and video
hi, i thought i had seen (few months ago) mention of someone using Pd to display images from Flickr, but can not find any mention of it anywhere now is anyone doing this and if so, how? i'd also like to access youtube videos, but images will do for now. oh, i also need mysql and email access within puredata/gem; i can't find a good database of externals/patches -- Joseph Barrows live video performance; web site design; new media artist jjbarrows.artwww.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] Fwd: using PD to access URL based images and video
yes, that was me. I used python and the flickr api to do this. there is an unofficial release at http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/Pd/pd_flickr. (I will have to look into it again and have to clean up the code and give better documentation. I use python to talk to flickr, search for tags and then download the images to a local folder, and parse the local address to pd, so that pd can open the image. there is no way to do all that with native pd objects yet. youtube videos are more tricky, because you would have to convert them from flash to some readable file format. feel free to download and test, (I am not sure, if it still works, but you will get the concept) and I did not include my flickr-api key, (so you have to get one). I will look into it again and can help you with questions... marius.

Re: [PD] [gem-cvs] crashes xorg/ati..
hey ben.. good theory, unfortunately everything seems in order (/usr/lib/libGL.so* is correctly linked to the ati libs] i have now tried every possible method to correct the problem, including updating my compiler, the wide world of google leads nowhere.. i'm beginning to suspect faulty hardware.. i don't have many other GL based apps to test against, just the standard mesa afair and they all work fine, and gem works against the mesa libs, of course i'm reliant on hardware rendering for this particular project.. all i can do now is strongly advise folks against purchasing anything [amd]/ati when using linux. besides the pitfalls of irregular driver updates and next to no GPL contributions, ati gear is horrible to configure, has many issues with standard function calls, relies heavily on kernel ABI stability *which linux will never fulfil* and due to such issues will never run on a patched kernel (i.e realtime-preempt).. this machine was a donation and now apart from a glamorous jukebox (pd audio is AOK!) and email platform is more or less useless for the work i have done previously.. so yeah, all i can suggest is get gear with an nvidia or intel video chipset (as much as intel are a bit behind in the 3d stakes, they have been glorious contributors to open development and their hardware is quite stable and usable, i'm no gamer tho..). language warning: AMD/ATI can go fuck themselves and i won't take part in any of their developments in the near future.. hopefully the have a wonderful life in this ugly vista world.. please plant a nice nvidia card into an old machine and have some fun, modern computing is about pleasing the right folks at silicone valley.. screw the lot of them, i'm making 3d with clay.. cheers pd crew, you folks rock. love, dmotd..

Re: [PD] pd-extended autobuilds on pd gutsy (WAS: Re: pd-extended install gutsy ubuntu libquicktime0 libflac7)
The files are in packages/linux_make. The problem is that there is just one package description file which needs to build the .debs for all of the different Debian-based distributions. In order to support multiple distros, we'll need a way to manage multiple 'debian/control' files, one for each distro with conflicting deps. One way would be to have 'packages/debian' and 'packages/ ubuntu', but I am open to suggestions. .hc On Feb 22, 2008, at 4:21 PM, Georg Holzmann wrote: Hallo Hans + others!
