Hello Folks,<br>
<div class="moz-signature"><br>
I'm looking for some advises regarding Recording and Playing MP3
files -directly- inside Purr Data v2.13.0+ under GNU/Linux and
Windows.<br>
<br>
In my MIDI/Audio projects under Purr Data I'm already using
successfully:<br>
- [oggwrite~] / [oggread~] for .ogg (Vorbis) files (with lossy
audio compression), and<br>
- [writesf~] / [readsf~] for .wav, .aif, .au and .snd files (with
uncompressed linear pulse-code modulation).<br>
<br>
But some users are requesting, among other demands, the
possibility to handle also MP3 (with lossy data-compression) for
extending the number of compatible Audio equipment (like TVs) able
to read them.<br>
<br>
After analysis I found only 2 objects -not tested yet- from the
'unauthorized' library being able to deal with MP3:<br>
- [mp3write~] an MP3 file recorder v.0.4, and<br>
- [mp3cast~] an MP3 streamer v.0.5.<br>
But there is nothing about an MP3 file reader/player.<br>
<br>
Despite the many libraries installed by default, Purr Data could
not create <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://fr.flossmanuals.net/puredata/lire-et-enregistrer-de-laudio/">any
of the following objects</a> (see towards the end of the link -
FR):<br>
- [mp3amp~],<br>
- [graphic-mp3amp~],<br>
- [mp3live~],<br>
- [mp3streamout~],<br>
- [mp3streamin~],<br>
- [mp3fileout~], and<br>
- [mp3play~] from 'iemlib library'.<br>
<br>
* [mp3play~] should be in the 'iemlib' library but it's not there
when its help file is well present in
'/opt/purr-data/lib/pd-l2ork/extra/iemlib/mp3play~-help.pd'.<br>
One strange thing is that the 'mp3play~.c' file is well present on
the Git copy I made from Jonathan's repo for my French
translations in:<br>
- '/home/joe/GitLab/purr-data/externals/build/src/mp3play~.c' (47
bytes), and<br>
- '/home/joe/GitLab/purr-data/externals/iemlib/iem_mp3/src/' (107
kB).<br>
<br>
Any ideas - suggestions about an available and working [MP3 file
reader/player] object?<br>
Thank you.<br>
