[15:04] <mynameisdeleted> ...
[15:08] <holstein> morning :)
[15:10] <mynameisdeleted> morning
[15:11] <mynameisdeleted> I looked at sourceforges eos-movierec and tried it from my mac(also runs on linux and I have ubuntu machines)
[15:11] <mynameisdeleted> it looks like full hd 1080p h264 stream studio quality over usb
[15:11] <mynameisdeleted> at blu-ray datarate
[15:11] <mynameisdeleted> much better than a real webcam
[15:11] <mynameisdeleted> and I have it already for photography and recording videos to card
[15:11] <mynameisdeleted> http://www.nsrfilms.com/images/5d_rig.jpg
[15:12] <mynameisdeleted> like that setup
[15:12] <mynameisdeleted> I was wondering if I could turn that into a webcam
[15:12] <mynameisdeleted> or live streaming cam easilly
[15:12] <mynameisdeleted> and if there were tools to support blue-screen and video path mixing live in ubuntu
[15:13] <mynameisdeleted> I was also wondering about computer-controlled light dimmers
[15:14] <mynameisdeleted> I like how jackd works
[15:14] <mynameisdeleted> I'd like to mix live video with video-game/opengl program output
[15:14] <holstein> i know green-screen is possible
[15:14] <holstein> ive seen some examples
[15:15]  * holstein is an audio guy
[15:15] <mynameisdeleted> you have a source code example of live greenscreen from "webcam"?
[15:15] <holstein> i dont know about that hardware
[15:15] <holstein> BUT if its USB
[15:15] <holstein> plug it in
[15:15] <holstein> and see :)
[15:15] <mynameisdeleted> it appears to be a digital camera
[15:15] <mynameisdeleted> but that software can capture a live h264 stream in linux
[15:15] <holstein> mynameisdeleted: i have seen sample videos
[15:15] <holstein> made with linux
[15:15] <holstein> ubuntustudio
[15:15] <mynameisdeleted> I'm thinking live
[15:16] <holstein> using green screen
[15:16] <holstein> im not sure about h.264
[15:16] <holstein> i think thats an option though
[15:16] <holstein> depends on the application i suppose
[15:17] <mynameisdeleted> pipe to mencoder for new format
[15:24] <mynameisdeleted> mencoder can pipe from most file pipes
[15:24] <mynameisdeleted> and wtih 4 ghz overclocked i7
[15:25] <mynameisdeleted> you can convert real time
[15:25] <mynameisdeleted> without multithread
[15:25] <mynameisdeleted> with it it works better I think
[15:25] <mynameisdeleted> for live video I think 6 thread 4ghz is good enough
[15:25] <mynameisdeleted> or 6 core 12 thread
[15:25] <mynameisdeleted> maybe dual xeon 4-core
[15:26] <mynameisdeleted> beyond that .... if you need more cpu get more boxes
[15:26] <holstein> yeah
[15:26] <holstein> for live streaming
[15:26] <holstein> h.264 is probably over kill
[15:27] <holstein> it seems to be quite lean
[15:27] <mynameisdeleted> I'd want blu-ray quality live streaming that can have 1 stream sent to tv station over internet
[15:27] <holstein> BUT we got folks with some funky internet still
[15:27] <mynameisdeleted> I have 45mbps upload
[15:27] <holstein> sure *you* do
[15:27] <holstein> but i have 10 down
[15:28] <mynameisdeleted> I have 45/45
[15:28] <mynameisdeleted> I love it
[15:28] <holstein> and thats pretty high for around here
[15:28] <mynameisdeleted> 4ms ping time to yahoo
[15:28] <mynameisdeleted> there are a few parts of country where they sell gigabit internet to house
[15:28] <holstein> most in my neighborhood have DSL
[15:28] <holstein> 1.5mb/s down
[15:28] <mynameisdeleted> for 350 USD a month
[15:28] <holstein> ;)
[15:30] <holstein> seems like youtube has or had a quailty button
[15:30] <holstein> i think if i did video streaming
[15:30] <holstein> i would use something like youtube
[15:30] <holstein> unless it had to be live or on my local net
[15:32] <mynameisdeleted> I also have cell-phone internet iwth 5mbps upload
[15:32] <mynameisdeleted> and about 80-100ms ping
[15:33] <mynameisdeleted> was wondering how good 1080p video could look over 4g
[15:33] <mynameisdeleted> I think its better than live satelite
[15:33] <holstein> you and 3 other people world wide can enjoy it ;)
[15:34] <mynameisdeleted> yeah... many satelite broadcast trucks have under 1mbps
[15:34] <mynameisdeleted> so I'd have better mobiel hd than the tv station trucks
[15:34] <holstein> personally, im just fine with the quality
[15:34] <holstein> i want content
[15:35] <virtu> hi 4 all
[15:35] <virtu> was away
[15:35] <holstein> its 2010, and i have to wait on a plastic circle to come in the mail to watch 'dexter'
[15:35] <holstein> virtu: hey :)
[15:35] <virtu> Hi holstein, how are you holstein?
[15:36] <holstein> not bad at all
[15:36] <virtu> nice... =)
[15:36] <holstein> i started a theory blog last nite :)
[15:36] <holstein> http://holstein-theoryninja.blogspot.com/
[15:36] <mynameisdeleted> so my home ubuntu cluster has 20 cores and 30GB ram over gigabit ethernet
[15:36] <virtu> let me see it
[15:36] <mynameisdeleted> so that can hanle green-screen and mixing in 3d graphics
[15:36] <holstein> mynameisdeleted: :)
[15:36] <holstein> the guy i saw doing it had a p4 i think ;)
[15:37] <holstein> so that should do the job well
[15:37] <virtu> nice blog... very clean and objetctive
[15:37] <mynameisdeleted> and private t3 can distribute to limited number of viewers blu-ray content
[15:38] <mynameisdeleted> if I need more I upload to a datacenter to re-distribute
[15:38] <holstein> virtu: thank-ya :)
[15:38] <holstein> i go on and on about that in #music-theory
[15:39] <holstein> now i can just drop that link
[15:39] <mynameisdeleted> I got 6 local bands willing to do live broadcasts and wanting me to do video recordings fo their concerts
[15:39] <mynameisdeleted> plan on making music videso too
[15:39] <holstein> thats great
[15:39] <mynameisdeleted> kdenlive is the best tool for editing?
[15:40] <holstein> mynameisdeleted: i would hit up the email list
[15:40] <holstein> i tried several
[15:40] <holstein> and i forget which one i landed on
[15:40] <mynameisdeleted> my macbook has finalcut pro but that is inefficient compared to kdenlive and my ubuntu boxes are much faster
[15:40] <holstein> ive used avidmuex before
[15:41] <holstein> yeah, i suppose final-cut is just stupid simple or something
[15:41] <mynameisdeleted> imovie is
[15:41] <holstein> OH, and it has the apple on it
[15:41] <mynameisdeleted> finalcut is a pro level tool
[15:41] <mynameisdeleted> hbo uses finalcut with $40k video rigs
[15:41] <mynameisdeleted> or more
[15:42] <holstein> thats what they use around here
[15:42] <holstein> we have a local station
[15:42] <mynameisdeleted> and all their shows take multiple computers overnight
[15:42] <holstein> and they have final cut rigs
[15:43] <mynameisdeleted> I'd like a jackd equivelant for video to become a linux standard
[15:43] <mynameisdeleted> most professional audio software for linux uses jack
[15:44] <mynameisdeleted> and can be routed however
[15:44] <holstein> yup
[15:44] <holstein> handy
[15:44] <mynameisdeleted> I set all audio outputs to use jack as backend
[15:44] <holstein> falktx is doing some great work with KXstudio
[15:44] <mynameisdeleted> so I have full control of all sound on all programs
[15:44] <holstein> jack was auto starting for a while
[15:44] <holstein> i think it still is
[15:44] <holstein> you login, and JACK is up and running :)
[15:45] <mynameisdeleted> if I make mod to that(I have my own jack autostart and config scripts)
[15:45] <mynameisdeleted> I'll make a video pipe program
[15:45] <mynameisdeleted> that has green-screen and blue-screen plugin
[15:46] <mynameisdeleted> and can use blu-ray, dvd, webcam, a program window or anythign like that for video
[15:46] <mynameisdeleted> that can be routed
[15:46] <mynameisdeleted> if I get somethign very primitive that organizes that and lets me have mplayer module for conversion
[15:46] <mynameisdeleted> and video streaming output control nicely
[15:46] <mynameisdeleted> and mix 2 video streams and bluescreenfor start
[15:47] <mynameisdeleted> and can appear to be a webcam device for anythign that requires a "webcam"
[15:48] <mynameisdeleted> I guess there is a fork of jakcd that can route video
[15:48] <mynameisdeleted> but no programs for it
[15:48] <holstein> not that i know of
[15:48] <mynameisdeleted> and handling bw is much more critical
[15:48] <holstein> you should query the email list though
[15:48] <holstein> and see
[15:48] <holstein> i dont do video
[15:48] <holstein> well, very rarely
[15:48] <holstein> BBL...
[16:37] <virtu> it's not easy play dream theater on piano
[16:38] <holstein> is that a tune?
[16:39] <holstein> http://www.dreamtheater.net/ ??
[16:40] <virtu> dream theater? a band[
[16:40] <virtu> a band.. a great band
[16:40] <virtu> =)
[16:41] <virtu> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opq72hDWHt4 this one I am trying
[16:42] <holstein> hey http://www.dreamtheater.net/disco_books.php
[16:42] <holstein> thats pretty cool
[16:42] <mynameisdeleted> hows 15C/59F for a cpu core temp?
[16:42] <virtu> http://www.dreamtheater.net/disco_books.php?s=sfam this album is great
[16:43] <mynameisdeleted> does that make the case 10C/50F?
[16:43] <mynameisdeleted> and the refrigerated fluid?
[16:43] <virtu> but hat music boot is only for guitar
[16:43] <mynameisdeleted> (liquid refrigerator cooled at 4 ghz)
[16:43] <virtu> 15c for a cpu core temp I think its nice
[16:43] <holstein> you could get by playing G F# D in the right hand
[16:44] <holstein> and playing the bass notes with the left
[16:44] <holstein> in ocvates
[16:44] <virtu> I got the piano sheet holstein
[16:44] <virtu> now, just have to pratice
[16:44] <holstein> sure
[16:44] <holstein> im just saying that would be a simplificationa
[16:44] <virtu> but you are right... all music is on G F# D
[16:44] <holstein> im just saying that would be a simplification *
[16:45] <virtu> sure =)
[16:45] <virtu> there are some measures that I dont play all notes... just the ones that sound great and easy to play...
[16:46] <holstein> yeah
[16:46] <holstein> you can put them in later :)
[16:46] <holstein> if you want
[16:46] <virtu> after that, when my hands are already trained..
[16:46] <virtu> that what I was writing =D
[16:46] <virtu> I set my piano to a pop piano sound and insert a litlle delay
[16:47] <virtu> rock piano is the sound that I set
[16:47] <holstein> i have a rock piano ;)
[16:47] <holstein> old CP-80
[16:47] <holstein> yamaha electric grand
[16:47] <virtu> it sounds very near with Jordan Rudess keyboard
[16:48] <virtu> Jordan Rudess a.k.a Dream Theater keyboarder
[16:53] <virtu_OFF> have to go
[16:53] <virtu_OFF> bye for all

[22:25] <holstein> i have an old white wacom
[22:25] <holstein> and i tested it with lucid

[22:48] <holstein> hehe
[22:48] <holstein> nah, havent seen Wacom ;)
[23:22] <mugwort13> what kind of program would someone use the make a keyboard controller make sounds like a keyboard one would buy?
[23:23] <holstein> hmmm
[23:23] <holstein> what are you looking for?
[23:23] <holstein> a software synthesiser?
[23:23] <holstein> you can control with a MIDI controller?
[23:23] <mugwort13> Yes, I believe so
[23:23] <holstein> any idea what kind of sounds you are looking for?
[23:23] <holstein> anyways...
[23:24] <holstein> there are soundfont players
[23:24] <holstein> and im less familiar with the other kind
[23:24] <holstein> gigasampler?
[23:24] <mugwort13> any sounds, really.  I have a radium 61 that is collecting dust.
[23:24] <holstein> there are standalone synths
[23:24] <holstein> yoshimi
[23:24] <holstein> hexter
[23:24] <holstein> several that are organs...
[23:25] <holstein> dssi plugins too
