syphonserver does not start rendering in Pd-extended

[elektromoonvision]

Hi,

I have tweaked around with the framework and syphonserver.pd_darwin install folders, and looks like the object is created in pd, but nothing goes out to a client.
From time to time it appears in madmapper, but even 3 times and none of them has the name what I gave to the server.
Do you have any clue where I made something wrong?
I added everything to Library/Pd/extra but do not know if it goes to one e.g. Syphon folder or just add the Framwork folder and the darwin file separately into the extra folder. Anyway just in case copied the syphon.framework folder to the Library/Framework too.
I found in an older topic a link for binaries on Mac, but looks like that link is moved:
http://code.google.com/p/syphon-implementations/downloads/detail?name=Syphon%20for%20PD.zip&can=2&q=
Can someone share the binary file?

Thanks:
Popesz

just wanted to add the print from the pd window after starting the render in Gem:
[syphonserver]: SyphonServer: start rendering
[syphonserver]: pool is: 0x259e30
[syphonserver]: context is : 0x8ed600
[syphonserver]: Server is: 0x0
[syphonserver]: Server is: OMG

Anyway, nothing goes to client.

Why are you tweaking with the framework install folders?

Does Stock PD Extended work with Syphon if you follow the directions?

Nothing special, just copied almost everywhere:
into library/framwork
into library/pd/extra
into library/pd/extra/syphon created by myself
into ~Applications/pd-extended/Content/Resources/extra

With stock pd i did not try as I have too many externals installed and does not want to destroy it. (freenect, openni etc)

Well, please try PD Extended download and read the instructions on the page I linked.

Tried it on a fresh Yosemite install with stack pd-extended.
I added the content of the zip (Syphon.framework and the stand-alone darwin file into /Library/Pd/extra not into the local folder. And added to the path the same ‘exra’ folder in the preferences. Pd adds the object without any problem, after creating Gem window syphon starts the same way as before, but in none of the clients launched, no server appears.
No idea where I make the wrong step.

What do you mean ‘none of the clients launched’ ?

Your patch?

[elektromoonvision]

No, I meant any client which has syphon implemented, such as MadMapper, your syphon recorder or Resolume Arena.
But is my above explained approach correct?

[elektromoonvision]

I send you, just in case my syphon server test patch on your address.

Hi, thanks for your patience. Seems like something subtle changed in PD Extended / GEM

I’ve slightly changed the project file and have updated a new release with detailed install instructions.

I hope this solves your issues:
