mxj net.maxhole and Max 5
Hello. Sorry if this issue has been brought up before.
I have a set of patched built as standalones that communicate with each other via the mxj net.maxhole object, primarily to send bangs and numbers throughout the patches. Quicktimes are involved in this as well, their playback is synced via a bang sent through the mxj net.maxhole object.
These standalones worked fine with Max 4.5, but for some reason are crashing with Max 5, even newer versions that were constructed more recently. The crash happens when the Quicktimes are triggered to go into full screen mode.
Is anyone else having an issue like this? It seems exclusive to the mxj net.maxhole object, as older patches and standalones without this object work fine with Max 5.
The other variable in this, and why I ask, is that the computer these standalones are running (or, rather, failing to run on) were upgraded to Mac OS 10.5 at the same time Max was upgraded to Max 5. Again, these standalones work fine on Mac OS 10.4 with Max 4.5, but the jump to the two new things crash the standalones whenever the Quicktimes are thrown into full screen mode.
Anyone else having an issue like this? Any suggestions?

Sorry it took me a while to get back, it's been a little bit busy here.
Attached are the main component of this patch and one of the sidekick patches, for lack of a better way to put it. All of the other sidekick patches are copies of the one essentially. The pcontrol patch in also included as there's some subpatches in there that contain useful information.
What exactly am I supposed to do with all this in order to see your problem?
Would it be possible to isolate things down to the part which is causing you grief? Please include instructions.
A crash log might help too.
If anyone else has any clues, I'm all ears.

Sorry. My job's got me doing umpteen tasks at once, it's been hard for me to think straight.
We've decided to try and build the patch in Max 4.6 rather than 5 and just build it as an application there to see if it's indeed the OS or not, isolate one variable at a time.
So, thanks for trying to help and I apologize for my scatterbrained-ness. The patches I put up are faulty anyways, so probably better to just disregard this.
My apologies again. This thread can be closed if the moderators wish to keep this space tidy.
i've used maxhole in max 5 with no problem... windowsXP and mac10.5 and
mac10.4 computers all on the same network. I didn't use it with quicktime
though
