Ideas?
So, by it "not playing", do you mean ChucK simply doesn't indicate it's sporking the shred at all? Or that you don't hear a sound? Have you tried stuff like editing the offending file to start with a debug print? Assuming that the filenames indicated are the actual ones then that's not it, those should be legal under both, but Windows and Mac potentially use slightly different non-printable characters for stuff like the end of a line. You could try opening and re-saving them using a Windows native text editor or some tool to strip those characters, I forget the details (stuff like cariage-return....) but your favourite "serious programmer's editor" should have a tool to convert/strip those. That might help? These are just my first guesses, with more datapoints better guesses could be made. If the file in question isn't super-secrit I'd like to see a copy of it that's the most simple file that still causes this issue. Good luck, it sounds mysterious and I hope you'll share if/when you find what on earth (or elsewhere, as the case might be) is causing this. Yours, Kas.
