raysession-gui crashes with unexpected float

[brobr]

Hi on Slackware-current (with QT5.15.3, qt5-webkit-5.212.0, python-3.10.0, pyliblo3-0.12.0, PyQt5-5.15.2, pipewire-master built with jack) (no systemd nor qtchooser on this platform; also no qt4; Python is installed in /usr/lib64/python3)

I get this crash...(both with raysession-0.11.1 and with cloned repository)

bash-5.1$ raysession Connecting GUI to existing ray-daemon port 16187 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/gui_session.py", line 155, in _osc_receive function(path, args) File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/gui_session.py", line 535, in _ray_gui_patchbay_fast_temp_file_running self.patchbay_manager.fast_temp_file_running(*args) File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchbay_manager.py", line 1890, in fast_temp_file_running self.add_port(p.get('name'), p.get('type'), File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchbay_manager.py", line 1618, in add_port group.add_to_canvas() File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchbay_manager.py", line 360, in add_to_canvas patchcanvas.addGroup( File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchcanvas/patchcanvas.py", line 302, in addGroup group_box = CanvasBox(group_id, group_name, icon_type, icon_name) File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchcanvas/canvasbox.py", line 244, in init self.updatePositions() File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchcanvas/canvasbox.py", line 970, in updatePositions canvas.scene.deplace_boxes_from_repulsers([self]) File "/usr/share/raysession/src/gui/patchcanvas/scene.py", line 424, in deplace_boxes_from_repulsers irect.translate(QPoint(box_dict['to_x'], box_dict['to_y'])) TypeError: arguments did not match any overloaded call: QPoint(): too many arguments QPoint(int, int): argument 1 has unexpected type 'float' QPoint(QPoint): argument 1 has unexpected type 'float' Aborted

[brobr]

Recompiling the 0.11.1 source resulted now in a working program....

[brobr]

Ok, this is on jack integrated with pipewire and when qjackctl, ardour and hydrogen are already running. 1) setting up a new raysession with these programs, loaded new instances of them (not what I wanted)

2) then, when choosing open jack-patchbay (which would show an old saved session, not what's active) raysession crashed again. Trying to start it again from a terminal gives another float error ....

[Houston4444]

ok thanks. The first crash should be fixed by last commit https://github.com/Houston4444/RaySession/commit/874852ea0c18ea295e3c8384e8ab042f2baea253

second one is very very strange, it says title_line.x is a float when I really can't see how it can happens...

[Houston4444]

oh, I found it !

[Houston4444]

It should be both fixed now : https://github.com/Houston4444/RaySession/commit/41875f3b6aa84f3dd1cf43701edfe1c493b38d58

[brobr]

Ok, thanks; will try again

Sorry, (cloned git repository, timestamp Nov 2 23.43)

Ok, another one... (is this due to python-3.10??)

[Houston4444]

(is this due to python-3.10??)

No, no, it is just me not working seriously enough, without the same JACK ports and boxes as you, when a fix create another bug. Sorry.

[Houston4444]

I tried something, there are also some more theme work, I hope this won't make other crashes happen.

[brobr]

Weird, resizing carla when its patchbay is active also crashes the app (carla). Am I missing something on my Slackware box; a KDE dependency (not using KDE) for example? Or could it be something linked to pipewire/jack? (dbus seems not used and I get no fun with qjackctl; it cannot start the jackserver (but that is done by pipewire presumably and I only need something like a patchbay to save my connections)

[Houston4444]

Weird, resizing carla when its patchbay is active also crashes the app (carla).

So, this is a Carla bug, RS doesn't crashes, no ?

a KDE dependency (not using KDE) for example?

Certainly not. Carla or RaySession both absolutely don't need KDE. I guess a QT related bug. What Carla says at crash ? That said, report a bug to Carla Github.

[brobr]

Ok, will do.

In the meantime:

timestamp Nov 3 17.15 (latest commit b8056da68b370e393e775c901eda47d2dbc16685)

[Houston4444]

Ok. that is strange, here drawText function doesn't complain if first ints are float... This is now fixed, that said in Qt doc drawText accepts only ints, so now they are ints. Maybe you will find other similar crashes... Certainly because of modifications in Qt or python-qt, your version is largely newer than mine. If you see other crashes, they won't be hard to fix.

[brobr]

Progress ;-) The gui loaded, with a small side panel in black. Thinking that could be the patchbay with current connections, I tried to resize the gui (stretching the window to the right). That gave a crash ;-{

Are you on python 3.9? Slackware-current aims to go back to that after trying 3.10 for 3 weeks or so. If that could be a factor, maybe I should come back to this when my box is at that state again....??

[Houston4444]

ok, let's try again !

Here I use old python 3.7.3 on Librazik (debian buster). I also use Manjaro but I can't remember python version.

I think you should not publish here your local IP address : [ray-daemon]URL : osc.udp://192.168.xx.xx

edit your comment ;)

[brobr]

Thanks, did not notice that ip...

Fab, almost there ;-) Resizing by dragging edges works fine; changing connections, toggle full screen, OK. Then trying to shift the zoom-slider: crash ;-(

Ok, this should be fixed. I think I need to test RS myself with python 3.10 (or qt 5.15, or both), to try to make it crashes.

[brobr]

Some observations:

After quitting raysessions, there are still running processes: ray-demon, ray-jackpatch). Should these not have been killed ? (maybe something related to by not being on systremd?? or left overs from previous crashes?)

After starting the gui: The options menu start with an unticked box for messages when these are open by default after start-up. The option 'show menu' when ticked/set is not saved after closing ray-sessions.

Typo in File/Utilities/Convert to NSM file format/: "Allmost JACK clients..." should be (?) "Most Jack clients..."

Still a slider-related crash: Clicking the zoom slider to keep reducing patchbay-size goes fine until at a point the program crashes (maybe it goes below 1%??):

[brobr]

Another observation. Having an Ardour-session (with Hydrogen) running and then opening RaySession loads all connections in the PatchBay panel and these can be altered. However, coming in this way, the state cannot be saved as a new RaySession. (i.e. with all applications etc). RaySessions need to be built up from scratch (i.e. adding Ardour in the above situation adds and opens a new Ardour instance, while one expect that the running Ardour might be imported as that is shown in the patchbay.

So, the existing running apps are not shown or cannot be imported into a (new) RaySession.

Converting the ardour session of that running ardour did not do anything (but no message about success or failure). Maybe nothing happened because that ardour session was not saved in my home folder but on another drive; some programs do not cope with that.

[Houston4444]

After quitting raysessions, there are still running processes: ray-demon, ray-jackpatch). Should these not have been killed ? (maybe something related to by not being on systremd?? or left overs from previous crashes?)

Normal. When your GUI crash, ray-daemon (which manage session) and ray-jackpatch_to_osc (which is the jack client communicating with patchbay) both still run. And when gui is started, it automatically connects to daemon (and to patchbay daemon).

The options menu start with an unticked box for messages when these are open by default after start-up.

I don't understand your sentence, screenshot ?

The option 'show menu' when ticked/set is not saved after closing ray-sessions.

mmmh, strange... It should, it works here.

Thanks for the typo.

Clicking the zoom slider to keep reducing patchbay-size goes fine until at a point the program crashes (maybe it goes below 1%??):

No, that is again a type error for QT.

For the second comment, I don't know what to answer. I think that when users read manual, they understand that programs not launched in the session are not part of the session, that's all. Patchbay is an utility offered by RS showing all the JACK patchbay, and for Ardour, there is no possibility to separate JACK clients from session to other clients. In the future, we could recognize some clients, but not ensure that a client is not part of the session. Shortly, if you use RS, start Ardour from RS.

Converting the ardour session of that running ardour did not do anything

I hope you did not try to load in the session a RUNNING ardour session !!! (if I didn't say it in the message dialog, it's an error, maybe too obvious for me ;) ).

Maybe nothing happened because that ardour session was not saved in my home folder but on another drive

Ah, maybe a bug in the converter script, can you try the script directly, in RS source code : utility-scripts/ardour_from_external_to_session.sh ?

[Houston4444]

Zoom slider should be fixed.

[brobr]

Ok thanks, works fine now.

Yes tried to import a running ardour;
Doing it with a non-running one works but is not optimal as the hydrogen link (in that session) is lost and the contact witn the Jack-serever was lost. Well, forget this route ;-) I just have to learn to build a session up from within raysession. (I have to learn a lot here ;-)

The menu issue: Open raysession: Set Menu-Bar visible: (Also note that 'Show Messages' is unticked but messages are shown; is that not inconsistent?) That works fine: After save and exit, on restart of the same session: menu-setting lost:

[Houston4444]

Could you check in ~/.config/RaySession/RaySession.conf if the value of ShowMenuBar is consistent after closing RaySession ?

ShowMenuBar=true if you closed RaySession with menubar visible, else ShowMenuBar=false.

[brobr]

somehow the settings are now kept: edit: yes

[MainWindow] ShowMenuBar=true

[Houston4444]

What happens with your MIDI ports in Midi-Bridge ??? they have no name !!! Could you get their true name ? (Right click on the port -> get port infos).

Ok thanks, could you uncheck "Use graceful names" and see what happens ?

[brobr]

with ungraceful:

with different jack settings...

then without 'Use ungraceful names'

[Houston4444]

Ok. Thanks a lot. I'd like to see the difference in jack settings, and the difference of port name with jack_lsp. There is probably something wrong in patchbay.

[Houston4444]

ahhh, I can reproduce the bug ! So now, I can search !

[Houston4444]

fixed for Midi-Bridge. I hope there is no similar bug with a2j.

[brobr]

this is what I get now:

[Houston4444]

Ok. These port names are now a little shorter in case jack.filter-name = true.

I spent some time to read pw doc, but I am quite lose. Which command do you use to restart pipewire after config changes ?

for now I use systemctl --user --now enable pipewire-media-session.service the problem is that samplerate and buffer size aren't updated in RS.

alternatively systemctl --user --now disable pipewire.service

But my desktop volume systray button is now broken, I don't see any device as pulseaudio does.

[brobr]

Ok, that's fine at my end (have 'playback_0 Midi Through' and 'capture_0 Midi Through' with my jack.conf settings.)

Pipewire seems to restart itself at my end (nothing fancy; close/quite raysession; change jack.conf, open raysession again and changes are visible)

But the tray-icon is only responsive/active when a session is loaded/running:

close session:

17:53:09 waiting for 3 clients to quit... 17:53:09 Hydrogen (hydrogen): stopping 17:53:09 Hydrogen (hydrogen): terminated by server instruction 17:53:09 Ardour (ardour): stopping 17:53:09 Ardour (ardour): terminated by server instruction 17:53:09 JACK Connections (patch): stopping 17:53:09 JACK Connections (patch): terminated by server instruction

systray button shows but not responsive: cannot reopen recent (grayed out) session; cannot open/new session.

17:54:09 -- Opening session 'ardour-hydrogen' -- 17:54:09 waiting announce from 3 clients... 17:54:09 JACK Connections (patch): launched 17:54:10 JACK Connections (patch): announced 17:54:10 JACK Connections (patch): project loaded 17:54:10 Ardour (ardour): launched 17:54:10 Hydrogen (hydrogen): launched 17:54:10 Hydrogen (hydrogen): announced 17:54:10 Ardour (ardour): announced 17:54:10 waiting for 2 clients to load their project... 17:54:12 Ardour (ardour): project loaded 17:54:12 Hydrogen (hydrogen): project loaded 17:54:12 session 'ardour-hydrogen' is loaded.

systray button working fine now.. ... but response is a bit erratic (as if it can blocked sometimes and after some time or by changing workspace it becomes active again)

EDIT: ok, maybe expected behavior; had 'System tray icon options'/'Only when session is running' ticked Un-ticking that option gives an active icon, also without a running session (so can load 'recent session' from there)

But 'aborting' a session inactivates the icon as well.

[Houston4444]

systray is totally a Qt thing, I have not really much power on it than activate/deactivate, and set context menu. It will essentially depends on your Desktop environment. Note that there is an option to use it never, always, or only when session is loaded (default).

LAM_ gived me another solution to restart pw (no need to restart RS this way): systemctl --user restart pipewire.service pipewire-pulse.socket pipewire-media-session.service

[brobr]

Ok thanks; was good fun. Now back on python-3.9.7, and all is working fine.
