[00:24] <Caelte> hi
[00:25] <holstein> Caelte: hello
[00:25] <Caelte> is there anyway to stop the system from using my browsers proxy settings?
[00:26] <holstein> hmmm
[00:26] <holstein> im not sure about that
[00:26] <holstein> you might want to try #ubuntu-beginners
[00:26] <holstein> whats the issue?
[00:26] <holstein> you use a proxy?
[00:26] <holstein> and you want just the browser to bypass it?
[00:27] <Caelte> well I run a proxy in my browser for surfing
[00:27] <Caelte> but the whole system seems to use the proxy
[00:27] <holstein> thats not working for you?
[00:28] <holstein> again, im really not sure
[00:28] <holstein> but
[00:28] <Caelte> so my system doesn't access the internet properly because it's a password protected proxy
[00:28] <holstein> i was thining you would have to set that system wide
[00:28] <holstein> and if you used a browser plugin
[00:28] <holstein> foxyproxy?
[00:29] <Caelte> I just want to surf with some anonymity
[00:29] <holstein> that would be only the browser
[00:29] <Caelte> switch proxy for chrome, but the same idea as foxy
[00:30] <Caelte> and yes, you would think it would only change the browser but it changes system wide
[00:30] <holstein> have you tried it in firefox?
[00:30] <Caelte> no
[00:30] <holstein> im wondering if that not just the way chrome does it
[00:31] <Caelte> I don't use firefox
[00:31] <holstein> yeah, me neither
[00:31] <holstein> might be worth a try in the spirit of trouble shooting
[00:31] <Caelte> I'll try the beginner channel, thanks holstein
[09:53] <rebirth> i am having trouble installing ubuntu studio. i've downloaded the iso and mounted it with gmount, but i can't figure out what to do next
[10:01] <rebirth> do i  need to boot from a cd to install?
[11:10] <brianmc> What would be the best tool in UbuntuStudio to guess at beats per min from acoustic guitar+vocals?
[13:33] <ScottL> brianmc, you could use a metrenome
[13:34]  * brianmc runs screaming in horror as he is reminded of Bowie's Laughing Gnome
[13:36] <ScottL> brianmc, a metronome reminds you of Bowie's Laughing Gnome ?
[13:37] <brianmc> Go listen to it, there's a bit in the lyrics... "What's that noise?" "It's Fred, he's a metro-Gnome"
[14:16] <ScottL> ah, lol, i'll have to do that :)
[17:32] <Zeu5> hi there, i am having a busload of problems using camtasia in windows. i am thinking of trying out video recording in ubuntu. i already am running ubuntu but i came across this ubuntu studio. i am doing e learning videos for my programmin class of students. i just want to add my voice over the video itself should i get ubuntu studio? or i jus need to install a few software in my current ubuntu?
[17:34] <Zeu5> anyone?
[17:40] <rlameiro> Zeu5: hi
[17:40] <Zeu5> anyone?
[17:40] <Zeu5> rlameiro:  hi
[17:40] <rlameiro> well, do you want to do screen cast?
[17:40] <Zeu5> rlameiro: is tat the actual term?
[17:41] <Zeu5> basically i am teaching php and mysql to 19-21 yr olds
[17:41] <rlameiro> ok, but you record the video fron the desktop right?
[17:41] <Zeu5> rlameiro: camtasia was vv nice to use but its windows and i had a HUGE problem getting my sound to work.
[17:41] <Zeu5> rlameiro: yes
[17:41] <rlameiro> ok
[17:41] <rlameiro> well, once you recrd your video
[17:42] <rlameiro> you can use Xjadeo + Ardour
[17:42] <Zeu5> rlameiro:  i am willing to consider ubuntu solutions came across ubuntustudio hence popped in here to seek advice
[17:42] <rlameiro> ardour is a multitrack audio recorderrecorder
[17:43] <Zeu5> rlameiro: are u saying i do not need to install ubuntu studio per se? but simply install xjadeo + ardour on my standard ubuntu 10.0.4?
[17:43] <rlameiro> xjadeo is a video only player, it wont play audio, the main objective is to use it for after adding audio
[17:43] <rlameiro> it syncronizes using the jack transport
[17:43] <rlameiro> well, thecnically yes :D
[17:43] <rlameiro> you dont need
[17:43] <rlameiro> but ubuntustudio, do have all you need for this setup
[17:44] <Zeu5> rlameiro: sorry i have only ever used camtasia i am a super noob. infact i only used ubuntu for less than 2 months so far
[17:44] <rlameiro> also, you just need to install ubuntustudio metapackages to have ubuntustudio, you dont need to do a full install
[17:44] <rlameiro> ahh, ok
[17:44] <tucemiux> how do you guys recommend I add audio to a video I created?  I want to record my voice over it and then add background music
[17:44] <rlameiro> wait, i remeber to see some ultra cool software a la camstasia
[17:44] <rlameiro> give me 5 minutes to search it up
[17:45] <Zeu5> rlameiro: thanks!
[17:45] <rlameiro> tucemiux: read what i said before
[17:45] <Zeu5> tucemiux: think its xjadeo + ardour. in case you just logged in and cannot see the previous few sentences
[17:46] <Zeu5> rlameiro:  i am looking at xjadeo and ardour.. guess i still dunno how it works until i download and try
[17:47] <rlameiro> well, they are quite powerfull tools, so it will need some time to get to know them good
[17:48] <tucemiux> Zeu5, i would just add the metapackage and youll have ubuntustudio on your machine, remember once you upgrade you will no longer have ubuntu, you will have ubuntustudio
[17:48] <Zeu5> rlameiro: any luck with that camtasia equivalent?
[17:48] <tucemiux> Zeu5, getting the sound appz  to work is going to be a PITA with ubuntu, that's why i use ubuntustudio
[17:49] <rlameiro> Zeu5: still searching
[17:49] <Zeu5> tucemiux: oh no.. :( i am not sure if my laptop is powerful enough
[17:49] <rlameiro> you can leave the ubuntustudio artwiork and desktop if you want to stay with the same
[17:49] <Zeu5> tucemiux: i usually just my ubuntu for programming purposes
[17:49] <rlameiro> if it runs ubuntu, it runs ubuntustudio
[17:50] <tucemiux> Zeu5, your laptop is powerful enough, I used to run ubuntustudio with a PIII laptop, and if your machine is still not powerful enough then you can try the real time kernel
[17:50] <Zeu5> rlameiro: tucemiux i only need to be able to do what rlameiro says is a screencast
[17:51] <Zeu5> tucemiux: i guess mine is powerful enough. but does that mean i need to ubuntu to switch to ubuntustudio? and anyway i do not need graphics editing.. i already have GIMP and i barely used it
[17:51] <Zeu5> *uninstall ubuntu to switch to ubuntustudio
[17:51] <rlameiro> well, then you dont need to install ubuntustudio
[17:51] <rlameiro> they use the same repositoriew
[17:52] <rlameiro> *repositories
[17:52] <tucemiux> Zeu5, if you can get the audio to work on plain ubuntu and it records really good then you should be good
[17:52] <Zeu5> tucemiux: u are saying in case i have a PITA getting the audio to work then i shd consider installing ubuntustudio?
[17:52] <tucemiux> Zeu5, you dont need to uninstall ubuntu, remember ubuntustudio = ubuntu + "Audio+Video that works out of the box"
[17:52] <Zeu5> tucemiux: i see..
[17:53] <tucemiux> Zeu5, exactly
[17:53] <Zeu5> tucemiux: in tat case, why dont i just install the audio and video components separately?
[17:53] <rlameiro> Zeu5: FINALLY
[17:53] <tucemiux> Zeu5, sure, install the applications and try them on ubuntu
[17:53] <rlameiro> found it
[17:53] <rlameiro> http://www.ws4gl.org/
[17:53] <rlameiro> check the videos to look at the features
[17:54] <Zeu5> thanks rlameiro
[17:54] <rlameiro> Zeu5: http://www.ws4gl.org/webcamstudio-demos
[17:55] <rlameiro> Zeu5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoXtcaWwsP0&feature=player_embedded
[17:55] <rlameiro> this is very nice demo
[17:56] <tucemiux> rlameiro, so if I want to add my voice and a soundtrack on the background I should mix the sound in ardour and then add the sound to the video app?? how do you synchronize the audio to the video?
[17:57] <rlameiro> you use xjadeo for it
[17:57] <rlameiro> xjadeo is a video player tha is synced using the jack transport
[17:57] <rlameiro> you need to set the timing on ardour to jack
[17:58] <rlameiro> and then when you play start on ardour, the video will start etc
[17:58] <rlameiro> after that, you can join audio and video using ffmpeg or something like that
[17:58] <rlameiro> or openshot
[17:59] <rlameiro> or some vidoe editor
[17:59] <rlameiro> *video
[17:59] <Zeu5> rlameiro: saw this comment in the youtube video.  It's using﻿ Java and a lot of it. If you are running intensive stuff like CompizFusion, this is not helping. If you are doing this plus have less than a Intel Dual Core CPU system...it's going to be VERRRRY slow.
[17:59] <tucemiux> rlameiro, is there an app that will allow me to play a video and I can record my voice while the video is playing?
[17:59] <rlameiro> well, maybe
[17:59] <rlameiro> tucemiux: dont know
[18:00] <rlameiro> but this is a very good way
[18:00] <rlameiro> xjadeo is made for this
[18:00] <rlameiro> you can use qtractor if you like
[18:01] <tucemiux> rlameiro, if I could find an app that will allow me to play the video and I could describe what's going on I could just add sound with kino but i guess I'll leave this little project for later
[18:01] <rlameiro> Zeu5: well, its possible
[18:01] <rlameiro> i tried it, but I do have a dualcore :D
[18:01] <tucemiux> Zeu5, are you going to post your videos on youtube?
[18:01] <Zeu5> sounds scary. i am not sure if ishd use it
[18:01] <Zeu5> tucemiux: well tat is the easiest way for my students to access the videos
[18:01] <rlameiro> well, gtk record desktop, wil record your mic if you want
[18:02] <Zeu5> some of them would like to access the videos at home so ..
[18:02] <rlameiro> but it will do so, at the same time you are recording the video
[18:02] <Zeu5> camtasia studio makes it very easy to edit the video and produce in various formats
[18:02] <Zeu5> i am not sure if gtkrecordMydesktop is also that user friendly..
[18:02] <rlameiro> Zeu5: yes, i am sure it is nice
[18:03] <Zeu5> rlameiro: have you personally tried gtk recordMydesktop?
[18:03] <rlameiro> but, the xjadeo + Ardour is a professional setup, contrary to camstasia...
[18:03] <rlameiro> yes
[18:03] <rlameiro> its a simple desktop recorder
[18:03] <rlameiro> you press the button "record" and  it starts recording
[18:04] <rlameiro> simple like that
[18:04] <rlameiro> cant be easier
[18:04] <Zeu5> rlameiro: i am not a professional i am a normal user. i saw the screenshots of ardour.. vv scarey.. so many knobs and settings to change
[18:04] <rlameiro> Zeu5: yes i know that
[18:04] <tucemiux> Zeu5, you use recordMyDesktop to create the video -- that's what I have right now, I have a video but no audio THEN you add the audio to it.  The trick is to convert the format of your video to a format you can edit it, once you choose your poison you can format the video so that you can edit the video with whatever app you want
[18:04] <rlameiro> I did said it is a powerfull tool
[18:04] <Zeu5> rlameiro: in tat case the webcamstudio and the gtk recordMydeskTop are basically the same thing ?
[18:05] <rlameiro> no no
[18:05] <rlameiro> webcamstudio integrates a lot of stuff inside
[18:05] <rlameiro> you can streem the video live with it
[18:05] <Zeu5> rlameiro: i see. i dont have to do that though. ha.
[18:05] <rlameiro> its lot powerfull, but maybe CPU hungry too
[18:06] <rlameiro> Zeu5: what did you did on camstasia
[18:06] <rlameiro> can you explain me the steps
[18:06] <rlameiro> maybe there is a simple way
[18:06] <Zeu5> rlameiro: first select the area of the screen to record. usually tat s the entire screen
[18:07] <Zeu5> rlameiro: then i will demonstrate how to do simple php programming based on the assignments given to teh students.
[18:07] <Zeu5> after tat i used camtasia's own smart pan and zoom.. they have this cool way of zooming in at any point in the video and it stays sharp
[18:08] <Zeu5> once done, i can cut away any portion of the recording to make the pacing of the whole video better.
[18:08] <rlameiro> Zeu5: i think you can use that zoom thing on linux, using acessibility tools
[18:08] <rlameiro> but you do that speaking at the same time?
[18:08] <Zeu5> i can add in captions below the videos
[18:09] <rlameiro> well, then you just need GTK record desktop
[18:09] <rlameiro> and then a Video editor
[18:09] <Zeu5> rlameiro:  so far i have done it without speaking. ii have to do it now cause some want to hear the instructions
[18:09] <rlameiro> like openshot or pitivi
[18:09] <Zeu5> camtasia would have allowed me to do audio as well, but something screwed up and i am not sure what
[18:10] <Zeu5> so i just need gtk recordmydesktop AND openshot?
[18:10] <rlameiro> well, there is magnifier software for linux
[18:10] <Zeu5> is audio taken care of?
[18:10] <rlameiro> you can use it to magnify parts of the screen
[18:10] <rlameiro> gtkrecordmy desktop, record audio as well
[18:11] <rlameiro> Zeu5: install gtk record my desktop from the software center and try it
[18:12] <rlameiro> Zeu5: the name is gtk-recordmydesktop
[18:12] <rlameiro> you can also select windows and stuff
[18:12] <rlameiro> i am installing it too now
[18:13] <Zeu5> rlameiro: so its just gtkrecordmydesktop and one of (openshot OR pitivit)
[18:14] <rlameiro> yes
[18:14] <rlameiro> for the magnifier
[18:14] <rlameiro> i am not sure what would do that
[18:14] <rlameiro> i will search for it now
[18:17] <rlameiro> Zeu5: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1333955/out.ogv
[18:18] <rlameiro> little test i made just now
[18:18] <brianmc> Zeu5, sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-video ubuntustudio-audio
[18:19] <Zeu5> whoa rlameiro  that is cool..
[18:19] <rlameiro> Zeu5: yep
[18:19] <Zeu5> rlameiro:  except for the pan and zoom in camtasia, this looks pretty darn good
[18:19] <rlameiro> you can use ORCA
[18:20] <Zeu5> brianmc: what will ubuntustudio-video and audio  install?
[18:20] <brianmc> Well, if you search for them in synaptic you'll see the full package list.
[18:21] <rlameiro> Zeu5: it will install the various software that come by default on ubuntustudio
[18:22] <brianmc> For what you're wanting to do, you'll be able to use a video editor which is synched with audio via JACK, and can be mucked about with in Ardour
[18:22] <Zeu5> rlameiro, brianmc : god.. i am so overwhelmed by choices. i even spent last 15 mins trying to see which of openshot or pitivi i shd use.
[18:22] <Zeu5> can any of you guys kindly point to a simple solution for me?
[18:23] <Zeu5> i am just goin to take it and run with it.
[18:23] <Zeu5> so far, i understand i ve the following choices:
[18:23] <Zeu5> 1) sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-video ubuntustudio-audio though not sure what apps i am supposed to use affter installing
[18:24] <Zeu5> 2) install gtk recordmydesktop and openshot or pitivi (though not sure if audio editing is possible?)
[18:26] <rlameiro> sorry
[18:26] <rlameiro> i was playing with orca and had some problems :D
[18:28]  * brianmc is firing up Kino to see if it is usable
[18:32] <Zeu5> i just read this article http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntustudio-video so does this mean i canot use recordmydektop? and use something else?
[18:32] <Zeu5> provided i install ubuntustudio-video
[18:33] <rlameiro> no
[18:33] <rlameiro> there is no screen recorder on the packages
[18:33] <rlameiro> you will need to install gtk recordmydesktop also
[18:34] <Zeu5> rlameiro: oh i see.
[18:35] <Zeu5> rlameiro: so in summary wat shd i do? follow brianmc 's suggestions and then install gtkrecordmydesktop and use that for recording?
[18:35] <rlameiro> well, that 2 packages will give you a lot of software to fiddle :D
[18:35] <rlameiro> but in a nutshell, yes
[18:37] <brianmc> Effectively, what you'd do is use a tool you know to capture the video, then use the Jack transport (& Patchage) to dub in your audio
[18:37] <Zeu5> rlameiro: sorry if i sound a bit pushy or obnoxious. i want to sound as polite as i can but i really need to ask this
[18:37] <rlameiro> go for it Zeu5
[18:38] <Zeu5> after installin the 2 packages and recordmydesktop, what app should i use for pan zoom effects? caption adding? and syncing the video correctly with a audio track? and recording audio tracks
[18:38] <rlameiro> for the zoom
[18:38] <brianmc> I assume if you're doing desktop capture you end up with videos that need hacked. It's then just a matter of recording the audio and, say, importing it to Kino containing edited video, and export to desired format
[18:38] <rlameiro> i am looking at it at the momet
[18:38] <rlameiro> for the captions and stuff
[18:38] <brianmc> IIRC Kino can do subtitles
[18:38] <rlameiro> well, use openshot
[18:39] <rlameiro> brianmc: kino is for DV video
[18:39] <brianmc> Yes, but convenient for many other things
[18:39] <rlameiro> and you need to render everything  everytime you modify something
[18:39] <Zeu5> so the process is like this recordmydesktop to capture my screen
[18:39] <rlameiro> not a good idea
[18:39] <Zeu5> then to capture my audio?
[18:39] <rlameiro> the audio is captured at the same time as the video
[18:40] <Zeu5> oh okie
[18:40] <Zeu5> so recordmydesktop for both audio, video
[18:40] <rlameiro> yes
[18:40] <Zeu5> openshot to edit the video
[18:40] <rlameiro> then import the clip to openshot and do with it wathebver you want :D
[18:40] <Zeu5> then wat about this Jack transport (& Patchage) to dub in your audio that brianmc  recommended?
[18:42] <rlameiro> that is the first option i gave you, he just explained it a little more technical :D
[18:43] <rlameiro> for the video editing part
[18:43] <rlameiro> i am not an expert
[18:43] <rlameiro> you should try more options really
[18:43] <rlameiro> not all do everything
[18:44] <rlameiro> so maybe try beetween kino, openshot, pitivi
[18:44] <rlameiro> etc
[18:44] <brianmc> first and last are in the ubuntustudio-video metapackage
[18:44] <rlameiro> I also ear about kdeenlive
[18:48] <rlameiro> Zeu5: for the panning and zoom
[18:48] <rlameiro> you should read about orca and try it out
[18:48] <rlameiro> it has some nice features, but i can't tell you for sure if it is what you need
[18:54] <Zeu5> i think i am going to go with openshot. i think iit has zooming
[18:54] <Zeu5> thanks guys.. really appreciate aeverything
[23:46] <Dustin_> hello, i just installed ubuntu studio and i am trying to get onto a wireless network
[23:51] <ScottL> Dustin_, ubuntu studio comes with gnome-network-admin by default, problem is that it has the disable_gui patch applied
[23:51] <ScottL> Dustin_, however, network-manager is included on the ubuntu studio dvd
[23:51] <ScottL> Dustin_, do you know how to enable the dvd as a repository?
[23:52] <ScottL> Dustin_, this page shows you how about the cd (or dvd) as repository https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#CD-ROM/DVD
[23:53] <ScottL> once you have enabled the dvd as repository you need to Refresh you applications list (because you enable a new repository and don't know about which applications it offers until you Refresh the list)
[23:53] <ScottL> and then you can enable network-manager
[23:54] <ScottL> network-manager is the default network manager for ubuntu desktop and should work
[23:58] <Dustin_> ScottL: ok thanks let me try that
[23:59] <ScottL> Dustin_, sure, i'll be on and off for a while and i'll keep checking this channel, if you have troubles again, ask, and idle in channel for a while
