vltHello. I'm looking for a (gui) program that can playback music files, does (editable) cross-fade when I skip to the next track and can trigger shell commands (to show slides of an OpenOffice presentation) at certain music positions. Any idea?16:23
vlt... or CLI16:23
vlt(maybe something like moc)16:24
holsteinwow... not sure about triggering shell commands16:24
holsteinyou might just want to start from scratch16:24
holsteinor, have some shell scripts that play the file, and trigger the slides16:25
vltIf it doesn't have to be an OpenOffice presentation but any kind of images ... What would you take for this task?16:25
holsteinme personally??16:25
vltYou studio guys ;-)16:26
holsteini would just click on the damn thing when i want the slide to move ;)16:26
holsteinvlt: maybe try #ubuntu-beginners or #opensourcemusicians16:26
holsteinmaybe a graphics channel... thats a pretty specific need, and im pretty sure theres nothing already around for that16:27
holsteintotally do-able though16:27
vltAll I have is a foot pedal to trigger the next track. I need crossfades and slides matching the audio (maybe from an OopenOffice presentation triggered by xdotool shell commands)16:27
holsteinthe way most folks do that is to just go ahead and make a final product16:28
vltholstein: Ok, if there's nothing out of the boy I could use I'll try to do some moc output parsing and shell command magic ...16:28
holsteinespecially if its something that is static, and doesnt *need* to change each time16:28
holsteinjust make a video project out of the whole thing16:29
vltholstein: Yes, it's quite static. What would a "final product" look like then?16:29
holsteinvlt: the final product would look however you want it to16:29
vltholstein: Aah, ok, a whole video, I see.16:29
holsteinit would just be something you would hit play on16:29
holsteininstead of something that rolls along triggering16:29
holsteincould be a video16:29
holsteincould be a flash project16:29
holsteincould be anything really16:30
vltBut I still need the crossfades :-(   hmmmmm16:30
holsteinsure16:30
holsteinyou do that while you are editing16:30
holsteinthats the easyiest part16:30
holsteinyou can do crossfades in *any* DAW16:30
vltholstein: The crossfades are the only parts that aren't static.16:30
holsteinyeah... not sure then16:31
holsteini think most folks just have a final product that is static16:31
vltholstein: Ok, thank you. I'll try to find a solution.16:31
holsteinif thats not the case... im not sure16:31
holsteinmaybe one of the presentation suites?16:31
holsteindont we have that?16:31
holsteinyou cant do that in openoffice?16:32
holsteinhave an audio file loop til the next slide??16:32
