Re: [PD] Reminder: PD VideoPedia
Hi, I'm not sure if you are looking for a site with a CC back end, or for a site like youtube that offers CC licenses for content. The site I use for all my videos is www.Blip.tv which has RSS syndication for all uploads to a channel and has CC licensing for all content uploaded. The quality is also significantly higher than you tube and allows different aspect ratios to be used.

[PD] reading suggestions for wii/sensor data conversion
Hi List I am a bit stuck with my ongoing experiments. What i am trying to do is to send acceleration (xyz or pry) data from the wii/osculator to pd/pmpd to have it visualized with some masses generated with pmpd. I would liek to simply generate some force in the x or -x dirction to move a mass. The data i get from the wii is i guess already accelleration and not absolute position, since i would liek to avoid using the ir- sensor bar. I am missing a mathematical trick there, any suggestions or hints for further reading. I was working with the mapping-abstractions, which are - as it seems - for any type of conversion.

Modal windows stay above windows that they are modal for, not above other windows to which they are not related, but in this case, pd is hiding modal under its own window. What is possible - to set Pd above other layers, but then you have pd console _always_ above all other windows, which is also not ideal. There is no concept of globally modal windows in openbox, which is very much on purpose. Fact is, that in other WM it works fine, and while trying to close unsaved patch i get modal popping up over any other windows, but still pd must be requesting something strange for its modal dialog, making it a child of a single window which is not the one you're working in or something.

Re: [PD] PD and new ASUS and Everex mini laptops: experiences?
Hallo! Official repository don't provide puredata. Old version (0.39) could be found in Etch repository. Yes an old version is also in the Xandros repositories ... However, I also compiled pd from source now. And it really runs quite nice - one of my performance patches with arduino interface uses about 20% (some synths, samples and effects) and also without dropouts when switching windows etc. However, I didn't test the latency so far ... So it's really nice for simple audio things, especially if you have some other interfaces and don't want to show your big computer ... ;) LG Georg ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] reading suggestions for wii/sensor data conversion
From what I understand about pmpd, it looks like you can send an force message to a mass object. As Claude says, F=m*a, so you can calculate the force to send to the object based on the object's mass and the acceleration data coming from the Wiimote. You will probably have to scale the signals coming from the Wiimote to use in your application. For example, if the acceleration on one axis is 542, you will have to decide what you want that to mean in your model. Also remember that gravity causes acceleration, so even if you aren't moving the Wiimote you will still detect accelertion. You may want to try to remove that from your calculations. I'm not sure if any of this is helping. I've been playing around with accelerometers a little bit lately, so I might be able to help you, but I'm still not sure I fully understand what you're trying to do and where you're running into trouble. andy On Wed, Apr 2, 2008 at 3:45 AM, Claude Heiland-Allen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Luigi Rensinghoff wrote: I would liek to simply generate some force in the x or -x dirction to move a mass.

[PD] gemhead render argument
hi i am getting different behaviours with same GEM patch under linux and windows. The patch is rendering a webcam image with pix_video and then a basic rectangle with no texture on top of the webcam (using pix_blob to analyse the camera and move the rectangle around). Each has its own gemhead and they are separated in different abstractions. While in windows all is rendered fine, linux does not like it the rectangle was rendered but the webcam image wasnt. The only way to get it to work was to put some render argument of the rectangle like 2. So I decided to set that value to $0 on loadbang, this should give different numbers to each instance of the abstractions. (Note that i dont have a clue if this is bad idea). Both the camera image and the rectagle are included in abstractions. The result was kind of ok, now linux was more happy with it but still sometimes the webcam image goes off again. This happens for example when I move the gem window or after ~10 to ~20 secs. Also if i open a PD subpatch. When I switch rendering off on the rectangle's gemhead and then the webcam goes live again... When I switch on the rectangle it takes some secs to go off again... If I dont turn on the rectangle the webcam stays alive. The webcam gemhead gets set to 1004 and the rectangle to 1005 from the $0 arg of the abstractions they live in. I guess this must be some problem with having two gemheads but i am not sure why this problem is not happening at all under windows, so it looks like a linux issue. Anything i can do to avoid this problem?
