[PD] [PD-announce] Pd-extended 0.43.4 release candidate 1: last chance to report your bugs

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Ok, I fixed the MIDI devices list on Mac OS X with Japanese characters on my 10.6 machine.  I forget, is this also a problem with the Audio devices? Are Japanese characters making them not show up?

The fix will be in tomorrow's build.

Can you run this command to start Pd in your Terminal when in Japanese mode and send me the result?  You can Copy and Paste everything starting from the command it into a text file and attach that.  Once Pd launches, go to Media->Audio Settings, and Media->MIDI Settings. If it crashes, then you'll probably need to do Audio and MIDI separately.
