Crash with beat slicer / beat repeater #271

Closed trebmuh closed 4 years ago

trebmuh commented 4 years ago

I can load those plugins in Qtractor 0.9.14, but when I activate them, then Qtractor crashes.

@jpcima advise me to ask here for executing the GUI in a separate process maybe. I'm not sure what that means (not a programming person here), but maybe that rings a bell for you.

AFAIK those plugins are designed for Ingen; they expose CV ports, something that won't get any love from qtractor any time soon.

and yet another showstopper: those plugins use gtkmm, a big no-no to qtractor; plain gtk-2.0 would be ok, but gtkmm is asking for trouble on a non-gtkmm host.

and running the GUI in another process won't solve the former but could mitigate the later; alas, qtractor (nor ardour i'm afraid) will do that: try Carla instead, if you insist :)

sorry.

That makes sense. Alternatively, would there is a way for Qtractor not to crash then? Even a plugins blacklist in ~/.config/rncbc.org/Qtractor.confwould be fine in the worst case scenario.

rncbc commented 4 years ago

there's no current way to blacklist any plugins in qtractor

cheers
