there was also "pdp_live~" that i was looking into the other day but pd couldn't create in either linux nor osx.  

i was looking to do the opposite: get a live stream from the network into pd/gem/pdp.  not sure if anyone has a solution but i did not find one.

maybe VLC->pd.... somehow....? or maybe another way?
