[00:24] hi [00:25] Caelte: hello [00:25] is there anyway to stop the system from using my browsers proxy settings? [00:26] hmmm [00:26] im not sure about that [00:26] you might want to try #ubuntu-beginners [00:26] whats the issue? [00:26] you use a proxy? [00:26] and you want just the browser to bypass it? [00:27] well I run a proxy in my browser for surfing [00:27] but the whole system seems to use the proxy [00:27] thats not working for you? [00:28] again, im really not sure [00:28] but [00:28] so my system doesn't access the internet properly because it's a password protected proxy [00:28] i was thining you would have to set that system wide [00:28] and if you used a browser plugin [00:28] foxyproxy? [00:29] I just want to surf with some anonymity [00:29] that would be only the browser [00:29] switch proxy for chrome, but the same idea as foxy [00:30] and yes, you would think it would only change the browser but it changes system wide [00:30] have you tried it in firefox? [00:30] no [00:30] im wondering if that not just the way chrome does it [00:31] I don't use firefox [00:31] yeah, me neither [00:31] might be worth a try in the spirit of trouble shooting [00:31] I'll try the beginner channel, thanks holstein === rottenre is now known as rottenrecords [09:53] 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] do i need to boot from a cd to install? [11:10] What would be the best tool in UbuntuStudio to guess at beats per min from acoustic guitar+vocals? [13:33] brianmc, you could use a metrenome [13:34] * brianmc runs screaming in horror as he is reminded of Bowie's Laughing Gnome [13:36] brianmc, a metronome reminds you of Bowie's Laughing Gnome ? [13:37] 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] ah, lol, i'll have to do that :) [17:32] 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] anyone? [17:40] Zeu5: hi [17:40] anyone? [17:40] rlameiro: hi [17:40] well, do you want to do screen cast? [17:40] rlameiro: is tat the actual term? [17:41] basically i am teaching php and mysql to 19-21 yr olds [17:41] ok, but you record the video fron the desktop right? [17:41] rlameiro: camtasia was vv nice to use but its windows and i had a HUGE problem getting my sound to work. [17:41] rlameiro: yes [17:41] ok [17:41] well, once you recrd your video [17:42] you can use Xjadeo + Ardour [17:42] rlameiro: i am willing to consider ubuntu solutions came across ubuntustudio hence popped in here to seek advice [17:42] ardour is a multitrack audio recorderrecorder [17:43] 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] xjadeo is a video only player, it wont play audio, the main objective is to use it for after adding audio [17:43] it syncronizes using the jack transport [17:43] well, thecnically yes :D [17:43] you dont need [17:43] but ubuntustudio, do have all you need for this setup [17:44] 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] also, you just need to install ubuntustudio metapackages to have ubuntustudio, you dont need to do a full install [17:44] ahh, ok [17:44] 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] wait, i remeber to see some ultra cool software a la camstasia [17:44] give me 5 minutes to search it up [17:45] rlameiro: thanks! [17:45] tucemiux: read what i said before [17:45] tucemiux: think its xjadeo + ardour. in case you just logged in and cannot see the previous few sentences [17:46] rlameiro: i am looking at xjadeo and ardour.. guess i still dunno how it works until i download and try [17:47] well, they are quite powerfull tools, so it will need some time to get to know them good [17:48] 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] rlameiro: any luck with that camtasia equivalent? [17:48] Zeu5, getting the sound appz to work is going to be a PITA with ubuntu, that's why i use ubuntustudio [17:49] Zeu5: still searching [17:49] tucemiux: oh no.. :( i am not sure if my laptop is powerful enough [17:49] you can leave the ubuntustudio artwiork and desktop if you want to stay with the same [17:49] tucemiux: i usually just my ubuntu for programming purposes [17:49] if it runs ubuntu, it runs ubuntustudio [17:50] 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] rlameiro: tucemiux i only need to be able to do what rlameiro says is a screencast [17:51] 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] *uninstall ubuntu to switch to ubuntustudio [17:51] well, then you dont need to install ubuntustudio [17:51] they use the same repositoriew [17:52] *repositories [17:52] Zeu5, if you can get the audio to work on plain ubuntu and it records really good then you should be good [17:52] tucemiux: u are saying in case i have a PITA getting the audio to work then i shd consider installing ubuntustudio? [17:52] Zeu5, you dont need to uninstall ubuntu, remember ubuntustudio = ubuntu + "Audio+Video that works out of the box" [17:52] tucemiux: i see.. [17:53] Zeu5, exactly [17:53] tucemiux: in tat case, why dont i just install the audio and video components separately? [17:53] Zeu5: FINALLY [17:53] Zeu5, sure, install the applications and try them on ubuntu [17:53] found it [17:53] http://www.ws4gl.org/ [17:53] check the videos to look at the features [17:54] thanks rlameiro [17:54] Zeu5: http://www.ws4gl.org/webcamstudio-demos [17:55] Zeu5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoXtcaWwsP0&feature=player_embedded [17:55] this is very nice demo [17:56] 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] you use xjadeo for it [17:57] xjadeo is a video player tha is synced using the jack transport [17:57] you need to set the timing on ardour to jack [17:58] and then when you play start on ardour, the video will start etc [17:58] after that, you can join audio and video using ffmpeg or something like that [17:58] or openshot [17:59] or some vidoe editor [17:59] *video [17:59] 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] 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] well, maybe [17:59] tucemiux: dont know [18:00] but this is a very good way [18:00] xjadeo is made for this [18:00] you can use qtractor if you like [18:01] 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] Zeu5: well, its possible [18:01] i tried it, but I do have a dualcore :D [18:01] Zeu5, are you going to post your videos on youtube? [18:01] sounds scary. i am not sure if ishd use it [18:01] tucemiux: well tat is the easiest way for my students to access the videos [18:01] well, gtk record desktop, wil record your mic if you want [18:02] some of them would like to access the videos at home so .. [18:02] but it will do so, at the same time you are recording the video [18:02] camtasia studio makes it very easy to edit the video and produce in various formats [18:02] i am not sure if gtkrecordMydesktop is also that user friendly.. [18:02] Zeu5: yes, i am sure it is nice [18:03] rlameiro: have you personally tried gtk recordMydesktop? [18:03] but, the xjadeo + Ardour is a professional setup, contrary to camstasia... [18:03] yes [18:03] its a simple desktop recorder [18:03] you press the button "record" and it starts recording [18:04] simple like that [18:04] cant be easier [18:04] 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] Zeu5: yes i know that [18:04] 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] I did said it is a powerfull tool [18:04] rlameiro: in tat case the webcamstudio and the gtk recordMydeskTop are basically the same thing ? [18:05] no no [18:05] webcamstudio integrates a lot of stuff inside [18:05] you can streem the video live with it [18:05] rlameiro: i see. i dont have to do that though. ha. [18:05] its lot powerfull, but maybe CPU hungry too [18:06] Zeu5: what did you did on camstasia [18:06] can you explain me the steps [18:06] maybe there is a simple way [18:06] rlameiro: first select the area of the screen to record. usually tat s the entire screen [18:07] rlameiro: then i will demonstrate how to do simple php programming based on the assignments given to teh students. [18:07] 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] once done, i can cut away any portion of the recording to make the pacing of the whole video better. [18:08] Zeu5: i think you can use that zoom thing on linux, using acessibility tools [18:08] but you do that speaking at the same time? [18:08] i can add in captions below the videos [18:09] well, then you just need GTK record desktop [18:09] and then a Video editor [18:09] rlameiro: so far i have done it without speaking. ii have to do it now cause some want to hear the instructions [18:09] like openshot or pitivi [18:09] camtasia would have allowed me to do audio as well, but something screwed up and i am not sure what [18:10] so i just need gtk recordmydesktop AND openshot? [18:10] well, there is magnifier software for linux [18:10] is audio taken care of? [18:10] you can use it to magnify parts of the screen [18:10] gtkrecordmy desktop, record audio as well [18:11] Zeu5: install gtk record my desktop from the software center and try it [18:12] Zeu5: the name is gtk-recordmydesktop [18:12] you can also select windows and stuff [18:12] i am installing it too now [18:13] rlameiro: so its just gtkrecordmydesktop and one of (openshot OR pitivit) [18:14] yes [18:14] for the magnifier [18:14] i am not sure what would do that [18:14] i will search for it now [18:17] Zeu5: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1333955/out.ogv [18:18] little test i made just now [18:18] Zeu5, sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-video ubuntustudio-audio [18:19] whoa rlameiro that is cool.. [18:19] Zeu5: yep [18:19] rlameiro: except for the pan and zoom in camtasia, this looks pretty darn good [18:19] you can use ORCA [18:20] brianmc: what will ubuntustudio-video and audio install? [18:20] Well, if you search for them in synaptic you'll see the full package list. [18:21] Zeu5: it will install the various software that come by default on ubuntustudio [18:22] 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] 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] can any of you guys kindly point to a simple solution for me? [18:23] i am just goin to take it and run with it. [18:23] so far, i understand i ve the following choices: [18:23] 1) sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-video ubuntustudio-audio though not sure what apps i am supposed to use affter installing [18:24] 2) install gtk recordmydesktop and openshot or pitivi (though not sure if audio editing is possible?) [18:26] sorry [18:26] 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] 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] provided i install ubuntustudio-video [18:33] no [18:33] there is no screen recorder on the packages [18:33] you will need to install gtk recordmydesktop also [18:34] rlameiro: oh i see. [18:35] rlameiro: so in summary wat shd i do? follow brianmc 's suggestions and then install gtkrecordmydesktop and use that for recording? [18:35] well, that 2 packages will give you a lot of software to fiddle :D [18:35] but in a nutshell, yes [18:37] 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] 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] go for it Zeu5 [18:38] 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] for the zoom [18:38] 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] i am looking at it at the momet [18:38] for the captions and stuff [18:38] IIRC Kino can do subtitles [18:38] well, use openshot [18:39] brianmc: kino is for DV video [18:39] Yes, but convenient for many other things [18:39] and you need to render everything everytime you modify something [18:39] so the process is like this recordmydesktop to capture my screen [18:39] not a good idea [18:39] then to capture my audio? [18:39] the audio is captured at the same time as the video [18:40] oh okie [18:40] so recordmydesktop for both audio, video [18:40] yes [18:40] openshot to edit the video [18:40] then import the clip to openshot and do with it wathebver you want :D [18:40] then wat about this Jack transport (& Patchage) to dub in your audio that brianmc recommended? [18:42] that is the first option i gave you, he just explained it a little more technical :D [18:43] for the video editing part [18:43] i am not an expert [18:43] you should try more options really [18:43] not all do everything [18:44] so maybe try beetween kino, openshot, pitivi [18:44] etc [18:44] first and last are in the ubuntustudio-video metapackage [18:44] I also ear about kdeenlive [18:48] Zeu5: for the panning and zoom [18:48] you should read about orca and try it out [18:48] it has some nice features, but i can't tell you for sure if it is what you need [18:54] i think i am going to go with openshot. i think iit has zooming [18:54] thanks guys.. really appreciate aeverything [23:46] hello, i just installed ubuntu studio and i am trying to get onto a wireless network [23:51] Dustin_, ubuntu studio comes with gnome-network-admin by default, problem is that it has the disable_gui patch applied [23:51] Dustin_, however, network-manager is included on the ubuntu studio dvd [23:51] Dustin_, do you know how to enable the dvd as a repository? [23:52] 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] 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] and then you can enable network-manager [23:54] network-manager is the default network manager for ubuntu desktop and should work [23:58] ScottL: ok thanks let me try that [23:59] 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
