| harry-houdini1 | hello i am using ubuntu 9.1 karmic with ubuntu-studio-audio installed and am trying to get jack working ...What I want to do is transmit the sound from a windows 7 box to a ubuntu box since sound is not fully supported with version 5 of the rdp protocol (version 7 has full support) | 15:12 |
|---|---|---|
| harry-houdini1 | can anyone help? | 15:13 |
| holstein | hey harry-houdini1 | 15:14 |
| holstein | SO | 15:14 |
| holstein | you have an ubuntubox | 15:14 |
| harry-houdini1 | hi holstein | 15:14 |
| holstein | and a win7 box | 15:14 |
| harry-houdini1 | yes | 15:14 |
| holstein | and you want what? | 15:15 |
| harry-houdini1 | i want to stream the sound from the windows box to the ubuntu box | 15:15 |
| harry-houdini1 | over the lan | 15:15 |
| holstein | OK | 15:15 |
| holstein | at what quality? | 15:15 |
| harry-houdini1 | very good quality | 15:15 |
| harry-houdini1 | i am watching training videos | 15:15 |
| harry-houdini1 | its a 100MB ethernet | 15:15 |
| holstein | videos? | 15:16 |
| holstein | SO you want to stream the audio and video? | 15:16 |
| harry-houdini1 | testout training videos....I have a remote desktop connection but sound isnt supported | 15:16 |
| holstein | i dont think jack is going to be the anser | 15:16 |
| holstein | answer* | 15:16 |
| harry-houdini1 | so i figured i could use this as a stop gap measure | 15:17 |
| harry-houdini1 | stream the audio separately | 15:17 |
| holstein | sure | 15:17 |
| holstein | but what will sync? | 15:17 |
| holstein | have you tried VLC | 15:17 |
| holstein | ? | 15:17 |
| harry-houdini1 | I cant find any how too's on using vlc with testout..i dont think it will work | 15:17 |
| holstein | http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ | 15:18 |
| holstein | hmmm | 15:18 |
| holstein | why dont you just watch the vids on the ubuntu box? | 15:19 |
| harry-houdini1 | cause of the overhead of running a virtual machine | 15:19 |
| harry-houdini1 | i wanted to offload the work | 15:19 |
| harry-houdini1 | it wont run with wine | 15:20 |
| holstein | SO ubuntu is virtulized? | 15:20 |
| harry-houdini1 | its its own self contained program | 15:20 |
| holstein | and testout has a proprietary piece of software | 15:20 |
| harry-houdini1 | no windows is virtualized on the ubuntu box but its too much overhead so i wanted to stream from another workstation | 15:20 |
| holstein | that plays the vid? | 15:20 |
| harry-houdini1 | yes exactly | 15:20 |
| holstein | to train you about opensource sofware ;) | 15:21 |
| holstein | lol | 15:21 |
| holstein | anyways | 15:21 |
| harry-houdini1 | no actually cisco | 15:21 |
| harry-houdini1 | CCNP stuff | 15:21 |
| holstein | hmm | 15:21 |
| holstein | well, jack is not the answer | 15:21 |
| holstein | pretty sure | 15:21 |
| holstein | you get jack running on ubuntu | 15:22 |
| holstein | and that doesnt help you get anything into it really | 15:22 |
| holstein | not from windows | 15:22 |
| harry-houdini1 | sad thing is if rdesktop supported version 7 of rdp it would work | 15:22 |
| harry-houdini1 | well jack runs on windows as well | 15:22 |
| holstein | so your thinking netjack? | 15:23 |
| harry-houdini1 | yes | 15:23 |
| harry-houdini1 | isnt that part of jack2 | 15:23 |
| holstein | hmm | 15:23 |
| holstein | that would do it... | 15:24 |
| holstein | have you used jack before? | 15:24 |
| harry-houdini1 | damn program is totally undocumented | 15:24 |
| holstein | even best case scenario for me | 15:24 |
| holstein | i had a little latency | 15:24 |
| harry-houdini1 | no never used it cant get the deamons to start on either windows or linux get error #2 | 15:24 |
| holstein | and some xruns | 15:24 |
| holstein | to many xruns for me to feel like i could use netjack proffesionally | 15:25 |
| harry-houdini1 | whats xruns cause | 15:25 |
| holstein | clicks | 15:25 |
| harry-houdini1 | hmmm | 15:25 |
| holstein | pops | 15:25 |
| holstein | or drop-outs | 15:25 |
| holstein | OR crashing | 15:25 |
| harry-houdini1 | that would be anoying | 15:25 |
| holstein | yup | 15:25 |
| holstein | PLUS | 15:25 |
| holstein | its challenging to get running | 15:25 |
| harry-houdini1 | you aint kidding | 15:25 |
| holstein | and your not going to ever do anything else with it | 15:25 |
| holstein | if your not an audio guy | 15:26 |
| harry-houdini1 | does vlc some how work with non compliant programs | 15:26 |
| holstein | how about a really long headphone extension cable? | 15:26 |
| harry-houdini1 | hmmm..lol maybe thats the answer | 15:26 |
| holstein | if you can get VLC to play the vid | 15:26 |
| holstein | it'll stream it | 15:26 |
| holstein | and thats something you can use for other purposes | 15:27 |
| harry-houdini1 | nah it wont play the vid they are encrypted | 15:27 |
| holstein | hmmm | 15:27 |
| harry-houdini1 | its a whole simulator and stuff besides videos | 15:27 |
| holstein | well | 15:28 |
| holstein | it seems like something you want to be running native | 15:28 |
| holstein | in windows | 15:28 |
| harry-houdini1 | wine wont run the internet explorer with the web rdp client either | 15:28 |
| harry-houdini1 | I guess this is a no go and i give up maybe in 10 years it will work.. | 15:28 |
| holstein | i believe a strongly worded email is in order | 15:28 |
| harry-houdini1 | what do you suggest holstein | 15:29 |
| holstein | an email to testout | 15:29 |
| holstein | about linux support | 15:29 |
| harry-houdini1 | yeah right like thats going to happen...good idea..not a chance in hell i am afraid..maybe i should send an email to the makers of rdesktop | 15:30 |
| holstein | both | 15:30 |
| holstein | at least rdesktop has a good reason | 15:30 |
| holstein | the same reason | 15:31 |
| holstein | proprietary | 15:31 |
| harry-houdini1 | your right...thanks..I will leave ya alone now ...thanks for you help... | 15:31 |
| holstein | harry-houdini1: anytime | 15:31 |
| holstein | good luck | 15:31 |
| harry-houdini1 | you too! | 15:31 |
| tucemiux | im trying to figure out how to go from logic to protools, anyone have any suggestions?? | 19:13 |
| holstein | tucemiux: you mean files? | 19:16 |
| holstein | can you just export/import? | 19:16 |
| holstein | wavs or whatever they both support? | 19:16 |

| sobukus | Man, this system is cursed | 23:06 |
| holstein | sobukus: lol | 23:06 |
| holstein | whats up? | 23:06 |
| sobukus | I had working network manager on monday, including 3G dialup in nm-applet. | 23:06 |
| holstein | i remember talking to you, but i forget | 23:06 |
| holstein | OH | 23:07 |
| holstein | and no good now | 23:07 |
| holstein | sobukus: did you get a kernel update? | 23:07 |
| holstein | i have to say | 23:08 |
| holstein | on my studio machine/install | 23:08 |
| holstein | i dont just go willie-nillie on the updates | 23:08 |
| sobukus | Now today, the modem won't show anymore.. | 23:10 |
| sobukus | it's still the same kernel | 23:10 |
| holstein | hmmm | 23:10 |
| sobukus | The modem _works_ | 23:10 |
| holstein | did you do anything in the bios? | 23:10 |
| holstein | hmm | 23:10 |
| sobukus | but it does not show in network manager | 23:10 |
| sobukus | I can go online with svdial and a custom script to register in the network | 23:11 |
| sobukus | wvdial | 23:11 |
| holstein | OH | 23:11 |
| holstein | thats probable the way to go anyways | 23:11 |
| holstein | i dont know how well dial-up is supported in NM | 23:11 |
| holstein | i tried a while back | 23:11 |
| holstein | hardy or so | 23:11 |
| holstein | and i gave up pretty quick | 23:11 |
| sobukus | and actually, nm-applet was gone on first boot today | 23:11 |
| holstein | and went to something like wvdial | 23:12 |
| sobukus | dialup worked fine for me in older ubuntu installs | 23:12 |
| holstein | i think it was the modem i was using | 23:12 |
| sobukus | and it actually worksed initially ... but something beinhd the scenese broke the communication with network manager | 23:12 |
| sobukus | I don't see the point in ubuntu if these clicky-thingies don't work | 23:13 |
| holstein | bbl... dinner-time | 23:13 |
| sobukus | well, it's midnight here, so ... too;-) | 23:13 |
| * sobukus hopes someone will reply to the post on ubuntustudio users mailing list | 23:13 | |
| sobukus | perhaps it's just some dbus crap going wrong ... | 23:14 |
| sobukus | but exactly this mysterious works/does not work of the fancy stuff on top of the basics is very disconcerning | 23:14 |
| * sobukus prepares to leave the train ... while on 3G dialup from the laptop ... using Source Mage GNU/Linux with custom script | 23:15 | |
| sobukus | I am still giving ubuntu a chance here... but I really want to see some progress from the beta ... the shiny stuff should work (besides the other issues like SCSI root disk). | 23:16 |
| * sobukus off, too | 23:17 | |
