[PD] netsend (UDP): cannot connect to 255.255.255.255

Hi, In Windows, I've always used "connect 255.255.255.255 (someport)" with a [netsend 1] to broadcast packets to the whole local network to a given port. Any [netreceive (someport) 1] on the same network and/or the same machine could receive all packets sent with the netsend above. However,

[PD] [netsend 1] (UDP) disconnects if nobody listens

Hi, I have a [netsend 1] (which is UDP) and I connect it to 127.0.0.1: to send UDP packets to the localhost, port . If there's an application listening to that port everything's fine. However, if nobody is listening, the [netsend] object consistently disconnects (or at least detects

[PD] (GEM) mjpeg decoding performance question

Hi, I'm trying to find the codec with best performance to use with gem in Ubuntu. Up to now the best I've found is MJPEG, but the funny thing is that if I code the file myself with MJPEG using Avidemux, I get much better performance than with a file also coded with MJPEG that I was given.

[PD] a really fast-to-read codec in linux?

Hi, I'm desperately looking for a codec to code video files with so that pix_film will be able to read them with the best performance. I don't care if the compression rate is very low, as long as the quality is good and reading is fast. Does anybody know any? Mjpeg seems to perform quite we

Hi, I know running with -noaudio is NOT exactly the same as running normally and keeping dsp turned off. However, when running a "gem patch" with nothing audio-related in it, I expected that the performance would be the same in the two cases (NOT the same as running with dsp turned on, of co
