Re: [PD] pix_buffer loaded event

2014-03-06 Thread Martin Eckart
Wow, thanks!  You've fundamentally changed my understanding of [trigger].
 I didn't realize it actually waited for the operation to complete before
sending the next event.

Works great now, thanks again.

 Hi all,

  1) Is there a way to find out when pix_buffer has finished loading an
 image?  Maybe pix_buffer_write has something?
 2) Is there a way to know when folder_list has finished outputting all the

  This seemingly easy problem has me scratching my head.  The best
 workaround I can think of at the moment is to just build in a long enough

[PD] OSX Gmerlin support in GEM

2013-12-04 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all,

I made a GEM patch in linux that ran well and now I'm trying to get it to
work on an OSX machine but the video playback is incredibly slow/CPU
intensive.  Is there a way I could get gmerlin into pd(extended) GEM in osx?

Scanning the pd-list I see references to complicated/messy set ups but I
can't find any reasonable instructions or plan of attack.

Please point me in the right direction  if you can.

[PD] GEM UI

2012-04-03 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all, I need help conceptualizing the best solution to my problem.

I've created a Gem application in which I use the 'view' message to pan
the camera around the space.  Now I want to create a user interface that
is fixed to the frame of the screen.

I've succeeded already but my current solution is clunky (I created an
'offset' abstraction that calculates the proper offset for each UI
element whenever the camera is panned) and is conceptually convoluted.
I think it's more complicated than it needs to be.

Is there a way to define a frame or object group for Gem objects?
Something where I could just use a single transformXYZ for the group
offset from the camera position and then work with each sub-object as if
it were fixed to the screen?  How might you fix UI elements to screen
borders while moving the camera through the application space?

Thanks,
-martin

Re: [PD] libpd and game engines (OpenFrameworks?)

Sweet!  I agree that libpd could really leverage Blender's awesomeness.

I'm beginning to think that openframeworks might actually be what I'm

general application running on my linux development machine then worry
about getting hardware specific on other platforms but hopefully share

 If you wanted to say «Where do you meet ?», then that will be at 4550 
 Garnier, between Mont-Royal-E and Gilford. Usually, I'd reach that by

  HI there..
 
  I just want to share my experiences with Os´s..
 
  I started in the nineties with a windows machine, I tried 95, 98,
  millenium, nt, xp
  It hanged really frequently  (20 times in a day w cad software..) so
  I assumed that as a normal function state from the machine..
 
  At some point I tried  beOS and I found it great but I couldn´t do
  anything w it..
 
  years later, I discovered that computers with the fruit thing  and I
  was really amazed, not just because of the stabilty  (but still one
  or two hangs per day with os 9.2),  also because I could do audio in
  real-time with them..  (well, coming from that windows nightmare,
  even a gameboy was fascinating..)
 
  Then I got one.. and until the day, I´ve been using all the Os´s and
  also tried almost all the hardware that was/is in the market.
 
  My experience with linux (about 4 years ago, ethic/curiosity  )
  started very slow, but definitely in an ascendent curve of
  satisfaction  admiration..
 
  Nowadays to code and to travel, I use a small thinkpad with ubuntu
  10 and the experience is just fantastic..   It´s actually so good
  that I´m starting to hate all the mac shits..   Because when you
  know where linux cames from and who works on it,  you can understand
  that sometimes you have to put energy  on your side to look for a
  driver or whatever  (Not the case at all w ubu 10).
 
  What I can´t understand  Is that this big companies (micr/appl)
  with hundred or thousands of good programmers working for them,
  are still doing crap...   (seems that they are focusing energies in
  making money  trying to protect his soft/hard  instead of making
  good code...)
 
  yesterday I formatted my mac and I installed the last system
  (10.6 ).  There´s a known bug on it  that not just doesn´t connect
  to internet, it also keeps sending packets to the router until the
  router stops working (???).
 
  I had to reset the router from the linux and download one by one the
  system updates for the mac.  This bug is known since 10.6.0,  I
  already have the 10.6.4  and the bug it´s still not solved
  completely.,.. (???)
 
  This just shows that It doesn´t matter how many hundreds of related
  posts you do in the official apple forums  related..  apple just don
  ´t give a shit about the problems of the users  (specially if
  your hardware it´s not brand new...).
 
  The ubuntu forums are far more clear and helpful than that,,
 
  About windows, I will not complain anymore... (not neccesary),  but
  I still understand people that uses it, because there´s people
  that doesn´t care about computers (even when they are working w
  them..)
 
  what I do, when I´m teaching a workshop Is to carry one or two usb
  sticks with a live distro (pure dyne / openartist ) and invite the
  people to try a truly operative system..

[PD] project help and suggestions

2010-08-24 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all,

I'm working on a project that I'd like some technical input on in order
to make it more efficient than I have it.  For reference I'm working
with PD-Extended on Ubuntu 10.4.

I have a digital camera taking jpeg images at regular (2 or 3 second)
intervals which download automatically to a directory on my laptop
(connected via usb using gphoto2).  I want to load those images into pd
using gem for display onscreen as well as some other analysis.

Now the way I have it right now, each time an image is downloaded a hook
script converts it to 1 frame of mpeg2 video and gets concatenated to
the end of a cumulative mpeg video file.  In pd, I load the video with
pix_film and display it.  This works reasonably well, however, I need to
load the same video again in order to get the most recent images and
that reload makes video playback stutter (not bad but enough to notice).
Does anyone have any suggestions on other ways I could go about this?
Some thoughts I have so far:

1) maybe pix_film has a 'reload' or similar option to just load the
newest frames?
2) maybe there's a way to play it as if it's a streaming video and just
load the newest frames as they come?
3) maybe pix_image is more what I'm looking for?  Forget the encoding to
video and just load each image individually to a buffer?  I think this
can be problematic since there will be hundreds of images and loading
them all to RAM will get too big for my paltry 2gb.

I'm grateful for any of your suggestions.

Cheers,
-martin

which is necessary for my patches at least.  I just remembered that I
need the gmerlin packages from Roman's PPA
( https://launchpad.net/~reduzierer/+archive/rdz-pd-extra+deps/ ) for it
to work, so I've installed those and am compiling again.  Maybe it is
worth having 2 auto-builds?  One normal and a second with gmerlin (and
possibly other configurations) support?

 Does Gem compile with gmerlin/avdecoder support by default now or do
 extra packages (libgavl-dev?) need to be installed for that?

   Hi Martin,
   
   i'm just composing a wiki page on this topic, shall be online by
   tomorrow under this one:
   http://puredata.info/docs/developer/AutoBuildProcess
   If your box is Lucid/64 note that i'm just upgrading mine to the
   same, so from tomorrow, Lucid/64 builds will be online (and no more
   Jaunty builds). Actually this is something I wanted to ask HC for
   the Wiki page; does it have an advantage to have more than one
   autobuild machine working on the same platform? (Is it handled at
   all, and in a way where redundancy serves continuity?)
  
  
  We don't need more than one build per platform posted.  Since Andras
  has been running his machine as a build server for a while, that's the
  one I'd prefer.  Its all setup.
  
  
  Otherwise, if people make builds, they should start by posting them
  anywhere online.  If it becomes a regular thing, then we can talk
  about how to make the uploads automatic.

 - Is 64-bit Lucid stable enough? (Usually 64 bit Ubuntus become stable
 a bit later than 32-bit ones)
 - Would you people want a regular Lucid build rather than a Jaunty
 one? (ie. are most of you on Lucid already?)

Re: [PD] [PD-announce] [wiimote] for ubuntu

2010-05-11 Thread Martin Eckart
Fantastic!  I compiled your code and now the nunchuk just works.
Looking into your code a bit it seems as though the original wiimote
external misspelled nunchuk and you've compensated for it:
---
// support the spelling mistake in the original version :-)
class_addmethod(wiimote_class, (t_method)wiimote_nunchuk,
gensym(reportNunchuck), A_DEFFLOAT, 0);
class_addmethod(wiimote_class, (t_method)wiimote_nunchuk,
gensym(reportNunchuk), A_DEFFLOAT, 0);
---

I couldn't find the original wiimote code easily so it's hard to check
whether that could be made to work too.

 Actually, I d'be happy to create a package that supports both extensions
 MotionPlus and Nunchuk. Is it correct, that currently Yvan's wiilib
 supports only the Nunchuk and [wiimote] from svn supports only
 MotionPlus and neither supports Classic Controller?
Yes, Yvan's extension omits MotionPlus.  I think Classic Controller
support is experimental (I don't have one to test with and I don't think
he did either).

[PD] rdz PPA

2010-05-10 Thread Martin Eckart
I'm trying to compile pd-extended from source (on Lucid amd64) and want
to be sure that gmerlin is compiled into GEM.  I came across Roman's ppa
at https://launchpad.net/~reduzierer/+archive/rdz-pd-extra
+deps?field.series_filter=lucid
but although I add it like any other, apt doesn't seem to update the
packages from the ppa (if I run sudo apt-get update | grep ppa my
other ppa's are displayed but not rdz).  I've managed to download and
install the individual packages from the web front-end but I thought I'd
mention this issue on here.

Maybe there's a configuration issue in the ppa for Lucid amd64?  Maybe I
did something wrong?

Thanks for providing this btw!

Re: [PD] rdz PPA

2010-05-10 Thread Martin Eckart
 I only added the packages, that [readanysf~] depending on, which is
 libgemrlin-avdec1 and libgavl1. gmerlin is a completely different
 package, which is not part of my PPA. 
 
Sorry I wasn't specific, GEM needs libgmerlin-avdec too. 

  Maybe there's a configuration issue in the ppa for Lucid amd64?  Maybe I
  did something wrong?
 
 Only now I realized, that Gem indeed checks for libgmerlin-avdec1 (and
 not for gmerlin, libgmerlin or the like). Since this package is not part
 of the main distro, 'sudo aptitude install libgmerlin-avdec-dev ' should
 install it. If your aptitude still cannot find it, make sure, that this
 line:
 
 deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/reduzierer/rdz-pd-extra+deps/ubuntu lucid main
 
 is part of your /etc/apt/sources.list. If this still isn't the reason
 for this PPA not showing up in your aptitude, then I don't know, what
 could be wrong. 
 
There's a file called /etc/apt/sources.list.d/reduzierer-rdz-pd-extra
+deps-lucid.list whose contents are:
---
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/reduzierer/rdz-pd-extra+deps/ubuntu lucid
main
---
I assume Lucid just organizes sources.list a little differently than
previous versions.  The other PPAs I have are handled the same way.

Curiously, in synaptic when sorting by Origin, your ppa is the only one
that isn't in the list.  This smells like a small quirky bug and my best
guesses at the moment are that either apt doesn't really like the '+'
character in the PPA name or my version of Lucid doesn't think your PPA
contains any packages for 64 bit lucid.

  Thanks for providing this btw!
 
 You're welcome!
This was one of the easiest compiling experiences I've ever had in
ubuntu.  Following the pd-extended instructions and grabbing your
gmerlin .debs everything came together automatically into a nice
little .deb.

For anyone interested in that (it might work on your amd64 Lucid) you
can download it from:
http://imartron.com/misc/Pd-0.42.5-extended-20100510ppa1~Lucid1.deb

I'll figure out how to make my own ppa for that one day.

[PD] read png with pdp

2010-03-28 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all,

I'm just starting to play around with PDP and I'm having a moment of extreme
noobishness.

I'd like to simply open and display an image from a file on disk
(png/jpeg/tif whatever).  From what I can tell this can be done by using
pdp_reg and sending a load_png message along with the path.  When I try
this, nothing happens (no window is created nor console output).  I know
that it's finding the file since the console will output and error if I send
it a bogus path.  It's possible I'm missing a library (I installed libpng3
but no dice) or some supremely obvious step.

The other method that I tried was using the pdp_rawin object and sending it
a open message.  What's not clear to me is how to set the type message
properly (bitmap/rgb/1920x1080 doesn't do much on a jpeg or png) or
potentially output the raw image in a pipe.

I'm running pd-extended on Ubuntu Karmic.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[PD] pix_film alpha

2010-03-09 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all,

I managed to compile gem with gmerlin and now it reads my MPNG film well,
however, it still does not render with a transparent background.  I have a
series of png images which have the background removed in places so that
whatever is underneath shows through.  I've converted them to an mpng .avi
using

ffmpeg -i man%04d.png -vcodec copy reflect1.avi

If I do the reverse,

ffmpeg -i reflect1.avi -vcodec copy reflect-alpha%04d.png

Then the resulting images maintain the transparent background, so I know the
conversion process is working properly.

Now, when I import this film using pix_film, I just can't seem to make it
overlay the way I want it to.  The (transparent) background does not appear
transparent.

If I replace pix_film with pix_image and the original .png images in my
patch then everything works the way it should.

The reason I'm trying to use videos is that I have thousands of images (most
don't need to be transparent) and it loads images/draws faster than
pix_image and pix_multiimage tries to load everything into memory at once
(kills my laptop around 50 images) and atm I'm too lazy to figure out a
buffering system.

Can anyone suggest an alpha-enabled codec that might work properly with Gem?
 Am I missing an object somewhere?  Is there a good non-video way to do
this?  Has someone already made VJ mixing patches that might help me?

Thanks,

[PD] gem and gmerlin on Ubuntu

2010-03-03 Thread Martin Eckart
I've been struggling for the past few hours with ffmpeg trying to create an
video file that Gem will accept that contains an alpha channel from a series
of tiff images.  While searching for answers I found some messages that
mention that new versions of Gem are using gmerlin as an a/v decoder which
should open it to many more formats.

I'm currently on Ubuntu 9.10 with pd-extended version
0.42.5-extended-20091114.  I probably installed it from a .deb package
somewhere.  Gem info:
GEM: Graphics Environment for Multimedia
GEM: ver: 0.93.CVS
GEM: compiled: Nov 14 2009

Is gmerlin support included in that Gem version?  Is it a simple matter of
enabling it?  Are the Gem .debs with it built in?  Will I have to compile
from source to get what I want?


Also, I'm fully open to any suggestions on how to make alpha-channel enabled
videos that Gem can read.
My ffmpeg line for jpeg sequences is:
ffmpeg -f image2 -vcodec copy -i sample%04d.jpg sample.avi

If I try the same with alpha enabled .png files, Gem throws errors about
MPNG:
AVI reader : Stream 0 vids : MPNG (0x474e504d) 117 chunks (0.46KB)
reader : Initialized video stream (chunk tblsz: 117, fmtsz: 40)

[PD] GEM Depth of Field

2008-10-22 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all,

I'm sort of a GEM n00b but have the basic understanding down.  For a
project I'm working on it would be wonderful to have an effect that
simulates depth of field (blurry foreground, focused background and vice
versa).  

From  what I've read about GEM through tutorials and google searches,
there's no simple object to do this.  The best explanation I've found so
far is http://glprogramming.com/red/chapter10.html (search for dof.c)
which provides c code for producing this effect using the accumulation
buffer.

Now I'm pretty determined to get this to work.  As I see it, my
strategies for now could be a) have someone else tell there is already a
simple object/patch that does this b) try to build a patch that can
mimic the code c) use the c code from that example to build an external
that does this or d) try and fake it some other way (manually blur
images or something).

I'm leaning toward c since I think it could probably be used by others
in the future.  I've never done openGL programming and my skills in
building externals aren't great but this seems worthwhile to do for
myself and probably others who might use the effect.

Thoughts?  Help?  Strategies?

Cheers,

-martin

on openmoko for:

Ambient Noise Detection 
Wishlist:Software:Ambient_Noise_Detection could be implemented
as a
D-Bus-utilizing daemon that controls/signals the other daemons
according
to environmental sound levels.


Maybe? :p

 Now that this whole thing is up on puredata.info, it will be much  
 easier to improve upon the application, rather than starting from  
 scratch again.

Re: [PD] GSoC Organization App 2008 wiki page

2008-03-12 Thread Martin Eckart
How'd the application submission go?  Did you get as many mentors as
you'd hoped?

Unfortunately the March 24th-30th  window is exactly when most of my end
of term projects are due so I'd like to get working on my student
application this weekend with hopes that the mentoring application
process goes through smoothly ;)

Currently I'm considering applying for LibPD (depending on
scope/difficulty, I'd love to help get PluggoPD working) or possibly
Speech Recognition as a secondary interest.

Since I'm a noob to actual PD development (I have some experience
creating and compiling externals, but that's the extent) so I've got
some trouble with scoping the issues.  At the moment, the LibPD project
just seems to me like a fiddle with makefiles project but I'm pretty
sure there's a lot more to it than that so I'd like to pick someone's
(Chris?) brain about it a bit in order to make a good and clear
application.


Also, is this list the forum I should be discussing this in?  Is
PD-devel more appropriate?  IRC?

I was also about to ask whether you really expected proposals close to
the 7500 word limit I read about in the GSoC FAQ, but I just re-read it
and figured out it's 7500 _characters_.  ~1000 words seems a lot more
reasonable ;)

Cheers,

 Hey all,

 Feel free to add anything to it, whether it be paragraphs or bullet

Re: [PD] Google SoC: call for mentors and project ideas

2008-03-03 Thread Martin Eckart
I think this is something I'd be interested in as a student...
Especially if it helps pluggoPD along (is PluggoPD an active project or
something to be potentially carried forward into SoC 2008?).  For that
matter, are most of the 2007 suggestions still valid for 2008?  Are some
not?

Also Chris, I think you added your LibPD suggestion to the 2007 summer
of code ideas list on
http://puredata.info/dev/summer-of-code/GoogleSummerOfCodeIdeas ... Just
wanted to let you know that I moved it up to the Project Ideas for
SummerOfCode 2008 section.

Cheers,

 I have added this:

 Which is my proposal to make it easier to compile the audio-engine part
 of Pd as a library and link it into your own projects. This has been
 asked about numerous times on the list, almost always to do with games
 related projects, and we all know that it's happening already in Spore.
 
 Also, this could really help with some of the other SOC projects like
 PluggoPd, PdVST, etc. so it's highly re-useable.
 
 The only problem here is the confusing name; there is already a PdLib
 project, which in my opinion should be called 'PdExternals' or something,
 but LibPd seems a very appropriate name for a project for using Pd as
 a library.
 
 I guess I'm happy to mentor this but Andy is probably a better candidate
 than me if he's interested! Or we could co-mentor - whatevs.
 
 Best,
 
 Chris.

[PD] Summer of Code 2008

2008-02-25 Thread Martin Eckart
Since I missed the Google Summer of Code boat last year I decided to 
search a bit and see what's up for this year... Turns out it was just 
announced today!

http://code.google.com/soc/2008

Any ideas on whether pd (iem) will include projects as a mentoring 
organization this year?  I'd be really interested in applying as a student.

[PD] pdradio

2008-01-23 Thread Martin Eckart
I sent this original email with the wrong address so its likely sitting 
in the moderators queue... Sorry for reposting if that happens.

First of all: hello I'm Martin, a lurker of this list happily doing my 
own thing in Guelph Ontario and keeping an eye on the pd scene.

Second: Has pdradio.iem.at been disbanded?  I recently read about it and 
I'm interested in hearing what it has to offer but I haven't been able 
to access it for the past few days

Re: [PD] Call for Students: PD projects in Google Summer of Code

I wish I had known about GSOC before I graduated in June.  Maybe if/when 
I find/apply to a good computer music masters somewhere/sometime I'll be 
able to take part.  Not to mention I would really like to have a version 
of PDVST that worked with Ableton...

 Hallo!

 I just noticed, that the PD projects are accepted by google.
 (Mentoring organization is IEM - Institute of Electronic Music and

 So all students who want to program sth and earn some money in summer 
 should apply ;) !
 (I think it's also possible to suggest further projects ... )

[PD] noisy soundcard

2007-03-12 Thread Martin Eckart
Hi all,

I've had an annoying hum coming from my edirol FA-101 when I hook it up 
to PA systems and have finally figured out that it occurs only when my 
laptop is plugged in and not running on batteries.  The FA-101 is also 
plugged in (boo 4-pin 1394 connections...) and then the amps I run into 
are also 3-pin plugs and leads me to believe that this is probably a 
ground loop issue.  Can anyone suggest possible solutions?  Is there a 
power bar that isolates grounds?

Re: [PD] multi i/o soundcard question again

2006-12-01 Thread Martin Eckart
I'm also looking for a similar card although I'm not particularly tied 
to Firewire.


I've been considering the Edirol FA-101 or UA-101 (usb2) since I can get 
either for about $400 and the FA-101 seems to be supported by freebob.  
Does anyone have experience with these?  Is there a holy grail external 
card for linux audio that i may find? 

My goal is to have at least 4ins/4outs (preferably more, and with 
preamps/xlr jacks) in an portable card.  I'd also like to power it 
through the bus but alas my firewire port is 4-pin and the UA-101 for 
some reason does not allow bus power which is pretty much the only 
reason I didn't buy it yet.


Latency is also a key issue as it will be used in live performance settings.

Thanks for any input,

-martin

hola,


i know there's lots of messges about this on pd-list archive,
we're looking for a multi i/o firewire audio card
that could run on mac osx and, more than all, on linux,
the final target.

just went to check at the local shop
and they have these two models available :

* m-audio firewire 410
* motu  ultra-light

any success stories with these models?
