| JeThroHD | hei, can someone help me, I just instald UbuntuStudio and I want jack to work whit a usb sound plugg, I get sound for it in the pulse audio controller for recording | 09:50 |
|---|---|---|
| JeThroHD | but can't get it to run whit jack | 09:51 |
| JeThroHD | I'm sorry if this is the rong place to ask, but a nuge in the right deriction would be good | 09:55 |
| JeThroHD | *wrong | 09:55 |
| JeThroHD | Konig USB 5.1 3D Virtual Sound Controller is the name of it, but I don't think support is the problem, because I can see it in jack | 10:18 |
| jussi | JeThroHD: I dont know the answer, but do stick around, there are several us tz based people who are good with stuff like that. | 10:27 |
| JeThroHD | thnx mon, be right back | 10:29 |
| AutoStatic | Hello JeThroHD | 10:50 |
| AutoStatic | I've got some USB soundplugs lying around here | 10:50 |
| AutoStatic | They work with JACK so | 10:50 |
| JeThroHD | mhmm... so you use the jack setup and change the input device to the useb thing right? | 10:52 |
| AutoStatic | Yes | 10:54 |
| AutoStatic | What's the output of cat /proc/asound/cards in a terminal? | 10:55 |
| JeThroHD | mhmm.... you meen to open jack by the terminal and then look at the outread or do you mean meesege screen in jack? | 10:56 |
| JeThro_HD | sorry dropt out a bit | 11:00 |
| AutoStatic | He he, np | 11:01 |
| AutoStatic | No, just open a terminal and type cat /proc/asound/cards | 11:01 |
| AutoStatic | And then paste the output here | 11:01 |
| JeThro_HD | 0 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia HDA NVidia at 0xfe024000 irq 23 1 [Set ]: USB-Audio - USB Headphone Set USB Headphone Set at usb-0000:00:0b.0-8, full speed | 11:03 |
| JeThro_HD | sorry that was a bit mesy | 11:03 |
| JeThro_HD | this is the error meg form jack: | 11:09 |
| AutoStatic | No it's ok, thanks! | 11:09 |
| AutoStatic | Ah, so your USB thingy is called 'Set' | 11:09 |
| AutoStatic | In QjackCtl you can enter this manually in the 'Interfaces' field of the Set up window | 11:09 |
| JeThro_HD | think so, do you mean the brand? | 11:09 |
| AutoStatic | like this hw:Set | 11:10 |
| JeThro_HD | ok thnx | 11:10 |
| AutoStatic | No it's the name the system gives to this soundcard | 11:10 |
| AutoStatic | Does it work? | 11:14 |
| JeThro_HD | I think it's working, but I still can't get any sound to my headphones | 11:15 |
| JeThro_HD | 13:13:42.980 XRUN callback (9) is the messege from jack | 11:15 |
| AutoStatic | Headphones are connected to the USB card? | 11:15 |
| AutoStatic | Ah, xruns | 11:15 |
| AutoStatic | What number of periods/buffer are you using? | 11:16 |
| AutoStatic | And frames/period? | 11:16 |
| JeThro_HD | 3 | 11:16 |
| JeThro_HD | I just let it all be defult | 11:17 |
| AutoStatic | 3 is good | 11:17 |
| AutoStatic | for USB | 11:17 |
| AutoStatic | (2=onboard, 3=USB/FireWire) | 11:17 |
| JeThro_HD | where do I setup this? | 11:18 |
| AutoStatic | Also in QjackCtl, the Setup window | 11:20 |
| AutoStatic | Try starting with a higher frames/period setting (like 1024) and try to get as low as possible without getting any xruns | 11:20 |
| JeThro_HD | still can't find the onbord or usb/firewire setting, sorry | 11:21 |
| JeThro_HD | its alredy sett to 1024, sould i go lower? | 11:23 |
| AutoStatic | the onboard or usb setting => periods/buffer | 11:25 |
| AutoStatic | 2 periods/buffer=onboard, 3 periods/buffer = USB/FireWire | 11:25 |
| AutoStatic | If you're getting xruns with a frames setting of 1024 there is something going wrong | 11:25 |
| AutoStatic | I have a similar USB sound device here, a C-Media one, and that runs just fine | 11:28 |
| JeThro_HD | any Idea how to truble shot this?? | 11:30 |
| JeThro_HD | is it beacuse of the alsa driver? | 11:31 |
| AutoStatic | Which Ubuntu Studio version are you using? | 11:32 |
| AutoStatic | Which version of Jack? | 11:32 |
| JeThro_HD | natty and kernel 2.6.38-10-generic | 11:36 |
| JeThro_HD | is that a real time kernel ? | 11:37 |
| JeThro_HD | The xrun is bad on defult settings also, would it help if I took a screenshot of the setup? | 11:48 |
| AutoStatic | Yeah, that might help | 11:57 |
| AutoStatic | 2.6.38 is not a realtime kernel, but you don't need one | 11:58 |
| JeThro_HD | ok, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11295547/Pictures/screenShot.png | 12:06 |
| JeThro_HD | thnx for the effort | 12:06 |
| AutoStatic | JeThro_HD: those are all default settings | 12:30 |
| AutoStatic | And thanks | 12:30 |
| AutoStatic | Try setting sample rate to 48000 and Periods/Buffer to 3 | 12:31 |
| JeThro_HD | k | 12:31 |
| AutoStatic | In the interface field enter manually 'hw:Set' without the single quotes | 12:31 |
| JeThro_HD | still get the "14:33:16.300 XRUN callback (3)" | 12:33 |
| AutoStatic | Does it look a bit like this? http://linux.autostatic.com/temp/qjackctl-konig.png | 12:34 |
| JeThro_HD | timeout where difrent and frame/priod, but after I changed that it still gives me xruns callbacks | 12:38 |
| AutoStatic | And what might help is to disable CPU frequency scaling | 12:40 |
| AutoStatic | What kind of CPU do you have? | 12:40 |
| JeThro_HD | amd athlone duel core 4200+ | 12:41 |
| AutoStatic | Then it might help to add two panel applets to your gnome bar | 12:42 |
| AutoStatic | Right click - Add to panel - CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor | 12:42 |
| AutoStatic | Do that two times, one for each core | 12:43 |
| JeThro_HD | ok | 12:43 |
| AutoStatic | In the preferences for the applet set one applet to monitor CPU 0 and the other to monitor CPU 1 | 12:43 |
| JeThro_HD | k done | 12:44 |
| AutoStatic | And then set both CPU's to Performance and make sure they don't scale or use the Ondemand setting | 12:44 |
| JeThro_HD | both on prefomence? | 12:44 |
| AutoStatic | Yup | 12:45 |
| JeThro_HD | done, that stopes the scaling? | 12:45 |
| AutoStatic | Yes, jackd can have issues with scaling | 12:45 |
| JeThro_HD | let me try a restart, be back in 2 sec | 12:46 |
| AutoStatic | Ok | 12:47 |
| JeThroHD | right still callbacks but the error msg is different | 12:51 |
| JeThroHD | **** alsa_pcm: xrun of at least 0.019 msecs | 12:51 |
| JeThroHD | JackPosixMutex::Unlock res = 1 | 12:51 |
| JeThroHD | 14:49:25.026 XRUN callback (1). | 12:51 |
| AutoStatic | What does jackd --version in a terminal output? | 12:51 |
| JeThroHD | this repits | 12:52 |
| JeThroHD | mhmm I only have qjackctl installed and when i typed jack it sayd it was'nt installed | 12:54 |
| JeThroHD | dose that meen anything | 12:54 |
| JeThroHD | ? | 12:54 |
| AutoStatic | jackd --version | 12:54 |
| JeThroHD | did'nt say | 12:54 |
| JeThroHD | how do i start it up so it says? sudo first? | 12:55 |
| AutoStatic | and aptitude show jackd? | 12:55 |
| AutoStatic | No QjackCtl starts jackd for you | 12:55 |
| AutoStatic | aptitude show jackd | grep Version | 12:56 |
| JeThroHD | version 5 (is that right?) sounds wiard | 12:57 |
| AutoStatic | No that's ok | 12:58 |
| AutoStatic | If you press Start in QjackCtl you can also open the Messages window, the JACK version is mentioned somewhere in there too | 12:59 |
| JeThroHD | is it "jackdmp 1.9.7" | 13:01 |
| AutoStatic | Ah, Jack2 | 13:02 |
| AutoStatic | thanks | 13:02 |
| AutoStatic | Try adding '-S' after the jack command in the Server Path field of the QjackCtl Setup window | 13:03 |
| JeThroHD | what dos "-S" do? | 13:06 |
| AutoStatic | It puts JACK in synchronous mode | 13:06 |
| JeThroHD | sil xrun fail | 13:06 |
| AutoStatic | Hmm, bummer | 13:07 |
| AutoStatic | Then I fear I'm out of options :( | 13:08 |
| JeThroHD | I have had a live cd on this commputer before, and jack worked from that, mabe I can cpoy the settings? | 13:09 |
| AutoStatic | What kind of live CD? | 13:09 |
| JeThroHD | what do you think, is it the new version there is smoething wrong whit or just the setup? | 13:09 |
| JeThroHD | it was a guitar live cd based on debian, think it was squeez. it had the realtime kernel though | 13:10 |
| AutoStatic | Ah, then I think it is Natty probably | 13:11 |
| AutoStatic | I don't use it myself | 13:11 |
| AutoStatic | I'm still on Lucid (10.04) | 13:11 |
| JeThroHD | mabey, mhmm I would to but I want to use this setup for video edeting too so that's why I wnt whit natty to get the latest whitout commpiling from source | 13:12 |
| JeThroHD | cose that is over my head | 13:12 |
| AutoStatic | video editing? | 13:13 |
| AutoStatic | What are you using for that? | 13:13 |
| AutoStatic | And I think it is possible to get an xrun free setup with Natty but it might require some digging | 13:13 |
| JeThroHD | mhmm | 13:14 |
| AutoStatic | But what are you using for video editing? | 13:15 |
| JeThroHD | kden and blender + open shot, weird it's not giving me xruns (i put it back to deffult) | 13:16 |
| AutoStatic | Oh, he he | 13:16 |
| JeThroHD | what did the -S do? | 13:16 |
| AutoStatic | It puts Jack2 into synchronous mode | 13:16 |
| AutoStatic | Not sure what that exactly means | 13:17 |
| AutoStatic | But it helps in some cases | 13:17 |
| AutoStatic | Natty is using an older version of kdenlive btw | 13:17 |
| JeThroHD | mhmm... I know, that's why I got the ppa from the website | 13:17 |
| AutoStatic | Ah good :) | 13:18 |
| AutoStatic | Less xruns now? | 13:18 |
| AutoStatic | Gotta go btw | 13:18 |
| JeThroHD | jeep... in defult mood | 13:19 |
| JeThroHD | *mode thanx for the help | 13:19 |
| AutoStatic | Sure you're using your USB card? | 13:19 |
| JeThroHD | no sat it back to defult, on the usb it gos back to xruns | 13:21 |
