Sending 8 bit bytes via UDP

Alok's icon

Hi all,

I need to send some packets out of MaxMSP with 8-bit bytes in the data portion of the packet.

I've played with aka.datagram and mxj.udp.send, but the bytes seem to max out at 7-bits. In a perfect world, I'd provide a list of values between 0-255 (not just 0-127 which is all I've been able to achieve) and the packets would get sent out with that info.

Has anyone had any luck with this?

Thanks!

There's some sadam.udp objects, don't know if they'll help...

Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

Seems to work fine with 8-bit bytes here:
