Help! Pd crashes on startup on Mac OSX 10.7+

danomatika — 2016-03-16T00:15:27Z

Is Pd crashing on startup and you're using Mac OSX 10.7 or greater (Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, etc)? This might be happening since newer versions of OSX save the window state when apps are closed and reopen them for you. This can be bad for Pd if there is a clash over resources (sockets, etc) when trying to open patches too quickly or simultaneously.

How can I run Pd with realtime priority on GNU/Linux?

In Linux, Pd can be run as a real time process by the root user, resulting in far fewer audio drop outs (clicks). Essentially, the operating system gives the Pd process more time to work without being interrupted by other programs.

Running non-system programs as root, however, is considered a security risk and is obviously not an option if the user doesn't have administrator access. Luckily, there is a system config file that accepts options for priority settings.

How to add aliases for Pd scripting on Mac OSX

danomatika — 2013-10-18T21:38:31Z

I wanted to be able to use some shell scripts using Pd I wrote in Linux on MacOSX, but the shell (Terminal) session does not know how to launch binaries from within Application Bundles.

On Linux, I can start pd by typing "pd" and hitting enter. On Mac OSX, I can start the Pd App by typing "open -a Pd-extended" ... but I'd rather be able access the pd binary within the bundle directly so one script can work in Linux and OSX.

How can I set permissions to read HID devices on GNU/Linux?

danomatika — 2013-10-18T21:37:19Z

The Pd-extended [hid] object allows you to access Human Interface Devices such as mice, keyboards, and joysticks. However, in most Linux distributions, these devices are setup to where they cannot be read directly by Pd unless you run it as root.

Running a non-system process as root is considered a security risk, so an alternative is to change the permissions of the input devices so that pd can read them.

Why doesn't audio work when I start Pd in -nogui mode?

When I start Pd from the commandline without the GUI in -nogui mode, it can't connect to the soundcard and no dsp seems to happen?

How to turn off resume windows for PD on MacOSX 10.7 Lion

danomatika — 2012-06-18T04:55:52Z

Did you upgrade to Mac OSX 10.7 Lion and now PD crashes on startup? This might be happening since Lion saves the window states when apps are closed and reopens them for you. This can be bad for PD if there is a clash over resources (sockets, etc when trying to open patches too quickly or simultaneously.
