[SOLVED] Updated to 9.2.4 - CamillaDSP problems

[bitlab]

Since the start each major update of camilladsp did break the configs.

We make sure that moOde supplied configs are upgraded. For your own an upgrade button is available which will cover most scenarios.

In the pipeline editor, when expert mode is active, you can see the state of each config file at the filemanager.

Format of camilladsp 3.0 changed slightly.
In the moode camilladsp config page, there is a config upgrade button.

Thanks - I'd never have noticed that option!

Several issues after upgrading to 3.0.0

I fixed the channels error in my config, but still wont play songs - more correctly if I play the first song at a given samplerate it plays, but if I change to a differnt samplerate song "failed to output device".  I'm not convinved it actually is loading the config becuase I dont hear sound difference.

The filters editor shows errors on predefined conv pathnames "cant find file".  But if change just one letter and retype the same letter it finds the file.  But when I load again same issue.

A possible reted issue is that I have subdirectories in coeffs directory as I have a lot of filter files and I organize then by the related comfig file.  But even though I set permissions to rwx  it keeps reverting back to rw-rw-rw.  I have not been able to find the reason why.

Another issue, plotting no long works on the wav files.  I can import them into REW and that works fine.  Plotting worked on the same files in the previous release.  I'm thinking that this is related - maybe the plot also cant find the file.  I made a copy of all the filter files in coeffs and it still has the problem finding  the files.

Try looking at the configs and see the paths to the coeffs files are correct

Hi Tim,

I would be willing to contribute to the project. I'm stioll working full time but should have a better balance this year. I'm not a professional coder, but understand software concepts. I have a good command of English. Maybe I could help in testing and/or documentation, new features definition. Where are you needing help?

[tonywsea]

The underlying issue might be that the permissions keep reverting on the sub-directories e.g. coeffs/Feb13-3. I set the directory to +777 and then later its back to wrw-rw-rw

With those permissions i cant get into the directory and if I do an ls -l from the paretn directory is shows filenames but the permissions and other data from ls -l show all question marks. Is it possible there is a cron or similar process that is resetting the permissions. It is odd. Never seen it before.

Please make a new thread describing the specific issue because this general thread has already been marked as solved.

I'll be happy to respond to new thread with some info on permissions. :-)

There are some feature requests mentioned in the forum that can't be worked on due to lack of developer manpower, so I'd say that coding is prolly the main need. And we always need testing because the QA department sometimes chills out too much. lol ;-)

Maybe create tickets for them in github?

Uh, github has them. They're called "Issues" and are tracked. A good example of an issue well-played is the recent Reduce DNS Timeout.... Note that issue discussion has three active participants: an informed user who's willing to spend time doing detective work to characterize the problem, and two devs who are interested in finding a workable solution within the boundaries of moOde. That's the kind of manpower needed.

Expecting Tim to take every problem mentioned by a user in this forum and turn it into a trackable github issue is unrealistic in the extreme. Knowledgeable users drive the issues.
