Can't install PureData module

Pi 3 Model B+ with PiSound, latest Patchbox

see video

I get this for a millisecond, before the Oops! window shows up

The tips in this thread didn’t work

Other modules work

Am i supposed to noodle around like this to get this going? Or is there any better solution?

Is nobody using pure data?

I hear your frustration. I got the same error when I first did the installation. And I posted the same thing here. If I remember right, I pressed cancel at that point (the error) and then did it again and on the second atempt it was fine. It still installed the Pure Data config on mine, though Im using a PI4. The manual and info for this Pisound setting up business is simply not good enough. Youre not the first or last to encounter this. What I can say is that if you keep searching posts here and keep at it, you’ll get it working and is worthwhile. MOCAP was easier to install.

thanks! I have a feeling that the Pi 3 Model B+ might be part of the problem. I also have glitches using the button. when I shutdown the pisound, I can’t start it again, immediately. I have to wait. I guess it’s a heating problem. Do you have any problems with heat? Can you tell me your exact model? Cheers

Fixed this in patchbox-cli package, the fix is available since version 1.4.0-5. You can run:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install patchbox-cli

to get the fix.

thanks! this solution also worked for me
