Re: 'Live stream objects' suggestions required.

D'oh! I always forget, now you can download things from github actions, you
can see one of my last commits is [streamin~]
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/actions

You can download the binaries and test it, if you're in Linux let me know
if you're having the issue. If not, you should have it working ;)

cheers
