Not receiving midi msg data

[Khepri]

Hi all. Sorry if this has been covered recently.

I recently switched to a Vista 64-bit laptop. I'm wondering if that has anything to do with why midi isn't working for me. Or maybe I'm just missing something.

I have "Project 5" (32-bit software) sequencer sending midi to
"Out to Midi Yoke: 1." The P5 track's "MIDI Activity" light flashes, so I assume data is sent to the port.

I'm running the latest mini-audicle package, 1.2.1.3 Dracula. All the included midi examples work, as far as being able to "detect" all the 8 available Midi Yoke ports, and when actually opening a port.
This code:
<<<MIDI> ", min.name() >>>;
results in . . .
Console message: "MIDI device: 0 -> In From MIDI Yoke: 1"

But that's it. This code . . .

while( min.recv(msg) )
{
// print out midi message
<<<msg>>>;
}

. . . or similar never results in anything. The same goes for no sound. So - looks like the correct port is open, but no message is ever received.

Any ideas as to what's up here, or how I could test further?

Your example code doesn't chuck the midi device to now. Is that because you simplified it for posting, or did you forget this?

EDIT: After searching the net a bit, I suspect it has nothing to do with ChucK. The problem may be getting Midi Yoke properly installed in Vista (with its over-done security features.) Thanks, anyway. I'll report back if I get it working.
