Querying size of folder contents before polybuffer~ load
Apr 27 2017 | 11:20 am
I'm working on a patch that loads a folder full of files into polybuffer~.
It all works well, but if you happen to select a folder either larger than available RAM or the 32bit RAM limit then this causes Max to crash.
I want to be able to test the folder contents size (just audio ideally) before commiting to the polybuffer~ load.
Any ideas?
