Hi,
currently is there an object to export an .mp4 video (audio+video) created with gem (video) and pd (music) directly from the patch in puredata? (maybe there have been some developments, or are in progress...)

Reading posts online from a few years ago, I saw that in Linux the solution was to use OBS and then capture the gem window. It is still so?
It seems strange...
Thank you,

Cool, it works perfectly. I'll attach your patch here.
Maybe it's also faster in terms of CPU (compared to that of oid), is that right?
Message_3.pd

Thanks, it works well, very nice. I attach the patch here if anyone wants to try it.
Message_2.pd

Hi,
however the same behavior remains: if I vary the first box number, it also varies in the message box; but if I vary the second or third, they do not vary in the message (in real time) unless I put a bang above the first box number.

Message.pd

Thank you,

I would like to use three number boxes, instead of messages.
So when I change the second or third number box, the numbers don't change in the message.
So I add a bang before the first number box, if I press it all three numbers are inserted. It's right?

Thanks

Hi,
I would like to connect 3 box numbers to a message box, so that the three numbers appear as a list within the message, like in this example:

But I don't remember how to do it anymore...
Any tips?

Thank you,

drawing.pd

Thank you.
Indeed the jpg is very degraded: but is it a bug?
The tiff however is ok.

Some questions:

The radius R and the x,y coordinates of the center: in what measurement units are they expressed? What does R=1 correspond to?
Where is the origin of the axes located in pixels with respect to the bottom left corner? (I would like to take it as the origin of the axes).

Why the 1920X1080 image window in not automatically adaptable or resizable to my 1366X768 monitor,? ...so I can't see what I'm drawing. Maybe it's better to create two separate images, like in your example, a smaller one for previewing and a large one for saving?

Thank you,
a.

Hi,
I'm starting to use Gem.
A question: how can I create a black circle with radius R and coordinate center (x,y) inside a white canvas (1920x1080) and save the image as .jpg?
So I need at least 3 box numbers to set x, y, R parameters.

Thank you,
a.

pd is very easy to build from source

I managed to build pd 0.54.0 from sources:

./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-jack
make
sudo make install

As you can see, I solved the missing jack issue by adding: --enable-jack
Now jack is listed in Media menu, it works fine.

connect the [loadbang] directly to the [symbol $1/images/*(

In /home/j/pd24 there is the patch.
In /home/j/pd24/images I put an image called 60.png

I connected my MIDI keyboard to pd 0.52.1 and played the C note (which corresponds to MIDI pitch 60), as can be seen from the number box I placed:

Should the 60.png file open?
Nothing happens and in the pd console it writes:

bad arguments for message 'open' to object 'pic'

I had already installed the else library and the relative paths had also been inserted correctly in pd. What does that question mark represent in the patch?
Any tips?
