Remains a mystery for the time being....I installed the
ttf-bitstream-vera font via synaptic which was not actually
installed before, but without the -font-face Monaco flag it still
crashed...<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I see, I can't imagine why is that. It seems related to Xfont package and its configuration. Anyways, I'm happy you can use the software.</div><div><br></div>

Meanwhile your patch/program is really great. Fantastic realtime
audio processes, but problematical when using video ... as soon as I
open a gem window audio starts to break up. To stop audio from
breaking up on my laptop I've had to hack the C[]NTR[]L patch into
seperate audio and video patches, and running 2 simultaneous
instances of pd one for audio and one for video, sending the note
bangs via OSC/udp from one instance to the other. Not sure why one
should have to do this, but it works perfectly like that. Maybe you
know an easier way??<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thanks Nick.</div><div>Ok, yes that's an issue which should be solved using a real time kernel. At least I don't have this problem here with -rt flag and rt kernel. But it probably depends on the machine capabilities.</div>
<div>What you described is usually good practice when working with real time audio+video processing in Pd. I believe there should be several threads about this topic here on the list.</div><div><br></div><div>However, I have to admit the C[]NTR[]L application featuring audio-to-video OSC communication was in the pipeline for long time, but then the project forked into a more interesting (at least for me) framework, which I'm developing now.</div>
