production machine, I’ve added some –path and –lib flags to my the .bat file
that launches pd. I’m not quite sure yet which external or library is actually
causing the problem (it may take a while to troubleshoot, having to restart
each time.) After the audio gets stuck, even if I restart, just launching
pd.exe on its own gets “audio I/O stuck”, which I don’t
understand.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
