pix-film question
What is the proper syntax to use within the [open <filename>( message to load a clip to [pix_film] if I don't want to use the [openpanel] object? Openpanel works great but I am not always going to be there to turn this video installation on so I'd like [pix_film] to find the clip on a [loadbang]. I have tried all the wordings I can think of to direct the message to the file but I get error messages that look like the following:
error: [pix_filmDarwin]: unable to find file: ÿàÔÿÕÿﾸÔÿ3
or
error: [pix_filmDarwin]: unable to find file: ÿﾻ
... you might be able to track this down from the Find menu.
the patch as it now stands is attached...

Re: pix-film question
the problem is possibly spaces in the filename, or path to the filename. this:
[openpanel]
|
[open $1(
can handle them, but this:
[openpanel]
|
[set open $1(
|
[ (
can not. feel it?
any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.

Re: pix-film question
I'll try again. Rather than type the path into [open( I copied and pasted it from the PD main window where it loaded from [openpanel] so I'd think the path and filename would be right. I must have a space or typo or something in there somewhere I guess.

Re: pix-film question
[openpanel] doesn't work !!!
When I try to open a sound, if I send a message with "open filename.aif". it works but once I'm using [openpanel] : no sound!!
some one can tell me why?
