First I think you should be issuing the command options
perfly -c 6 -H 360,40,60
to get 6 channels and a 360 degree FOV. The offset of 60 will split the
the FOV equally on all six channels. I tried this on my 1 pipe deskside
and the channer order was wrong, didn't try on my 4 pipe monster.
There may be a problem if you issue both -M 1 for multipipe and -c 6 for
the number of channels. If you look at the perfly source
(/usr/share/Performer/
src/sample/C/common/generic.c) you will see in the InitChannel function
that perfly will (in multipipe mode) set one channel per pipe. Since you also
ask for 6 channels, perfly will try to add channels to non-existanting pipes
3,4,5
I will have to re-check if this crashes, or just puts 4 channles on the last
pipe.
Good luck!
