just a little remark (you might know it already):

[declare -*path] works locally in the sense, that pathes are added  
only

really only works, if you try it within the _chat.pd patch.

remark2 (probably even better known):
when adding a [declare], save the patch, close and reopen it in  
order to
test whether the [declare] really works. instantiating a [declare]  
does

_not_ immediately add pathes.

check, whether all the netpd stuff is really there. is there a
netpd/includes/netpd-f.pd and netpd/includes/creator.pd ? if so, it is
very strange, that you weren't able to create those even after adding
the path to netpd/includes to your settings. i don't have any
explanation for that.



actually i wasn't aware of that, thanks for the clarification, now  
the helpfile od declare makes sense suddenly. set environment only  
for the opening patch might be clearer.

 hi max

 which exact version have u tried?

 have u removed the ~Library/Preferences/org.puredata.pd.plist  
 before you run the newest pd-extended?

 this versions have been working more or less:
 on intel osx 10.5
 Pd-0.40.3-extended-20080222
 Pd-0.40.3-extended-20080504
 Pd-0.40.3-extended-20080516
 Pd-extended (20080523)
 some problem with ~ and a new one with matrix
 (only working as iemmatrix/matrix).

 now i tried pd-netpd-osx.tar.gz from http://netpd.org/download
 and it worked surprisingly well. ~, matrix, t3_del all creates fine..
 i suggest to try this one too.

hi eni,

the exact version i have here is 0.40.3-extended-20080528 on 10.4

i can open netpd, log in, chat... but as soon as i open creator i get

[PD] pd not starting on winXP

2008-05-30 Thread Enrico Costanza
Hello.

I have pd 0.39-3 extended installed on my machine, but it does not run.
If I try to launch pd.exe I can see the process in the task manager, but 
nothing happens.
If I try to launch on the command prompt  pd -verbose -d 5 -stderr
I get the following:

input channels = 2, output channels = 2
set pd_whichapi 0
set pd_whichmidiapi 3
Pd version 0.39-3extended

and it stops there.

I tried reinstalling with no luck. I also tried the 0.41 version but I 
always got the same.

Any suggestions?
I could not find anything on the web that seemed related.

In the most recent versions of Pd-extended, you can use ~ on all  
platforms for any path (I think, report a bug if not).  ~hans,  
~username, etc. doesn't work tho.


On Windows, you can use envvars like %UserProfile%, so like [symbol % 
UserProfile%/Desktop(.  I would be nice to have this on UNIX  
platforms, but I haven't found a function to do the conversion, like  
Windows has.

When I first posted about this, it was about the recently new  
ability to do this:


[symbol somedir(

But this only works if somedir is at $HOME/somedir on linux and

something like ~/patches/somedir, I have to explicitly write in  
the message to [openpanel] /home/myname/patches/somedir.  This  
will only work on my directly layout, so if it is a patch I'm going  
to share, I cannot use this new feature (might I add I really like  
the feature).


I was only suggesting that [openpanel]/[savepanel]'s symbol  
argument has the patch's current directory appended to it, unless  
the ~ sign is used for home, or a full path is given.  I think,  
as Martin suggested, this is all handled internally with  
canvas_getdir() and open_via_path().


Regarding the normal operation of [openpanel]/[savepanel], i.e.  
sending it a bang, I think it would be nice if the last directory  
navigated to is remembered, else the $HOME.

 most people use that rather than the command line (I do on Ubuntu).

The HOME directory already is the default directory on Linux with

starting Pd from the manager. No need for any changes AFAIK.

I'm the wrong person to comment on MS-Windows or Mac, as I don't use
these and don't care even the teeny-tiniest bit about what happens to
Pd on these systems, but please leave it on Linux as it is the
standard here. All other apps like Vim, Emacs, Gimp, Firefox use the
`pwd` as default and I can't see why Pd should behave differently.

If you want to confirm this yourself, try the following with the gimp:

$ cd /tmp
$ gimp 

Then make a new file, select Save and it will give you /tmp as
first directory choice.

sorry, i don't have any new ideas.

afaik, the problem regarding missing loopback device happened only on
ubuntu machines (hardy or gutsy, cannot recall exactly), whereas on
windows this kind of issues was related to restricted firewall settings
most of the times. afaik, a windows installation usually comes with a
loopback device already, there is no need to install it separately.

your problem strongly looks like a networking problem and i am quite
surprised, that disabling the firewall didn't help. just to make sure,
that not pd is the culprit, but connecting to localhost, you could try
the following:

pd is shipped with additional two tools: pdsend.exe and pdreceive.exe.
start pdreceive from a commandline:

pdreceive.exe 5400

and then try in another cmd to connect to it with pdsend.exe:

pdsend.exe 5400

if connection succeds, everything what you type into the pdsend cmd
should appear in the pdreceive cmd. don't forget to terminate each
message with a ';'.

if this fails, while the firewall is disabled, something else is needs
to be wrong with your network setup. someone with some deeper expertise
in networking on windows might help then.

 if this fails, while the firewall is disabled, something else is needs
 to be wrong with your network setup. someone with some deeper expertise
 in networking on windows might help then.

It should be not too difficult (?) to have openpanel/savepanel save their 
current path in the .pd file when the patch is saved.
It seems to involve registering a save function using class_setsavefn() to 
replace the default text_save() with a panel_save() which would append the 
path symbol to the #X obj x y openpanel binbuf for the object. Then in the 
panel_new() routine the path will show up as an extra argument (I hope;) if 
it is redeclared as openpanel_new(t_symbol *s, int argc, t_atom argv) and 
adding a GIMME to the class_new() arguments.

I should also say that there are ways to use these cameras for capture other
than Firewire.  A PCI card like the Decklink Intensity can capture the
component analog or HDMI digital output of HDV cameras.  I have found analog
capture to be the most reliable.

Re: [PD] remote SL users..?

2008-05-30 Thread Luke Iannini
Yo,
I have also been bugging them : ).  I got an email from them two days
ago that has a nice development:

Hello Luke,

Automap SDK is still work in progress and I'm not able to say exactly
when we will be able to officially release this.

However we do have the documentation ready. It's available here:

http://focusrite.com/developer/doku.php

You can click on the RSS feed to get notification once the SDK is ready.

All the best,

 they never released this SDK, and that was months ago.

 I'll send Novation another email as well..

 i sent them one on the 2nd of May and got this in reply. basically, it's on
 their todo list, but at a low priority:

 Hi Damian,

 The SDK is scheduled amongst a huge list of other features which due to be
 release. As you can appreciate, our software developers have priorities
 (such the recent Automap 2 and Nocturn, as well as other ongoing
 developments) and I cannot commit our developers to an exact date. However
 I am positive that it will be release at some point. So please check back
 on our website in the future.

 Thank you in advance for your understanding.

 Best regards,

Windows requires an MPEG-2 decoder.  I have used ffdshow in the past for HDV
cams.  DirectShow is a very tricky API so you will probably want to get
familiar with GraphEdit which can be downloaded from the MS developer site.
