Suckah object not working / bug

aartcore's icon

Hi,

The suckah object is not working properly anymore, in the help patch of suckah.maxhelp I don't get the correct values. Also the suckah object in the jit.chromakey helpfile doesn't work anymore.

I get only values like 1. 1. 1. and in between it gives a jittering value of RGBA: 0.258824 0.258824 0.258824 when it should be full green, red or blue values.

Can someone confirm this behaviour or is it my computer?

Thanks in advance.

It has been fixed, I just tried with Max 8.6.5 and it works as expected.

Suckah doesn't seem to be working on my Apple M4 Pro (Tahoe) with Max 9.1.4. Anyone have an idea how to fix/address the problem?

Go to the macOS settings -> Privacy & Security settings -> Screen & System Audio Recording.

Add Ableton Live or Max (depending on what Max version you are using) and enable the option.

Restart Live and Max.

You might still see a warning indicating you're bypassing the system picker when using Suckah.

Does this solve the problem?

Thanks for the suggestion, but no, this doesn't solve the problem.

I also tried Max 9.1.2, and such didn't work there either.

I also just tried 8.6.5 to no avail. Anyone know what's up?
