buffer~ can't read file now
There are some threads around this theme but none with a solution that makes it work for me.
The problem is when I import replace a buffer with a wav. or a mp3. it often gives the error as mentioned above in the statuswindow.
I tried clearing the buffer first, or resizing it to a big size so tag a new file always would fit. But no luck.
Also trying read with wave-files gives the same error.
But sometimes it works...(!)
The funny thing is that over the years people are describing this issue. And never came a clear solution. Any new insights on this and any idea where I might go wrong?
Thnx, Peter
your first mistake is to send clear,
then setsize followed by importreplace.
remove all that and use only replace.
Other problem could be waveform and timestretching set
when replacing large buffers.
I would at least stop playback, snapshot~
and whatever else is possible untill buffer loads.
Thanks for the fast reply.
The clear and setsize were in the patch just because of trying to go around the not-loading problem. So removing them want help, unfortunately.
I will try to see what happens when I stop the msp-activities, before reloading the buffer. By the way, stop playing the groove~ doesn’t make an difference. As I tried that before.
However, isn ‘t it strange that all this would be necessary. And why am I the only one with this problem?
Peter
what are you actually loading ?
I mean how large are the files, and what format they are ?
Mp3 or wav.
And not large. 4 minutes. Regular quality.
But!!!!!! I just threw away the buffer and patched a new one. Which seems to be ok for now….
But not anymore now ))))-;
So after recreating the buffer the cirst time it all is ok. But after quitting and restarting the problem is back.
