| mazafaka | When I import (.MP4) video into lives, it saves it into ~/livestmp/weird_number directory, right? So I can then reopen it already divided into frames pointing this directory? | 19:14 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | whats "lives" ? | 19:16 |
| holstein | i say, try it... it shouldnt break anything.. it'll just work or not | 19:16 |
| mazafaka | L.I.V.E.S | 19:16 |
| mazafaka | it takes a time, the importing of the videos to mix sound from one with edited version of another. | 19:17 |
| holstein | http://lives.sourceforge.net/ | 19:17 |
| holstein | found something on it | 19:17 |
| holstein | if its taking time, then its likely reading, and pulling in what you want | 19:17 |
| mazafaka | I'll find, but it will be in another era or so... | 19:17 |
| mazafaka | it creates frames as separates files | 19:18 |
| holstein | i mean, it really depends on how its set up... | 19:18 |
| mazafaka | it's its style | 19:22 |
| gareth_ | Hello good people of #ubuntustudio. Does anyone have a moment to answer a question about where the studio controls have disappeared to in the new precise pangolin edition of studio? I want to sort out my Firewire card for realtime shizzles. | 19:27 |
| mazafaka | What are 'shizzles'? | 19:28 |
| holstein | gareth_: you shouldnt need that | 19:29 |
| gareth_ | um you know I've never thought to ask. I think it's a condencement of "sh*ts and giggles" | 19:29 |
| holstein | if you need a realtime kernel, you need to use https://launchpad.net/~abogani/+archive/ppa | 19:29 |
| holstein | gareth_: im not following man | 19:30 |
| holstein | i have a firewire device | 19:30 |
| holstein | i start out with the command... | 19:30 |
| holstein | gksudo qjackctl | 19:30 |
| holstein | when that is running stable i then move forward knowing other issues are permissions related | 19:30 |
| holstein | if you need a lowlatency or realtime kernel, refer to that PPA | 19:31 |
| holstein | we do not ship a kernel like that right now, though 12.04 will have it | 19:31 |
| holstein | if you want to be using 12.04 now, its beta.. i would join #ubuntu+1, and report any bugs offically... you are welcome to join any mailing lists, and/or #ubuntustudio-devel | 19:32 |
| gareth_ | although that would be shiggles. Either way it has served only to confuse the question :) ok qjackctl runs without realtime enabled if that is what you mean by stable | 19:33 |
| holstein | the RT checkbox should *not* cuase jack to crash now | 19:33 |
| holstein | i would run , like i suggested... gksudo qjackctl | 19:34 |
| holstein | this will take the permissions issue out of the equation | 19:35 |
| holstein | you wont get true RT with firwire, and the generic kernel | 19:35 |
| gareth_ | no it's crashed out on me still when running as root | 19:35 |
| holstein | or at least that is what my recetnnt testing has proved | 19:36 |
| holstein | recent* | 19:36 |
| holstein | gareth_: what you are finding also tells you something | 19:37 |
| holstein | you have the machine configured incorrectly | 19:37 |
| holstein | the driver support isnt there for your device, or the firwire chip | 19:37 |
| holstein | you can try ubuntustudio 12.04 live | 19:38 |
| holstein | you can try AVlinux live | 19:38 |
| gareth_ | ah ok it's just I hade 10.10 and that was just the generic bog standard ubuntu and qjackctl worked on RT without much work. | 19:40 |
| gareth_ | but you're saying there's another version of Studio that I'd have to use to get RT with 12.04 | 19:40 |
| holstein | gareth_: nope | 19:41 |
| holstein | im saying, 12.04 *will* ship with a lowlatency kernel | 19:41 |
| gareth_ | but not yet? | 19:41 |
| holstein | im saying, 10.10 through 11.10 did *not* have the RT kernel | 19:41 |
| holstein | gareth_: 12.04 is in beta | 19:41 |
| holstein | it has not shipped at all yet | 19:42 |
| holstein | that PPA i linked works with the others | 19:42 |
| holstein | however, the need for a realtime kernel is much less important these days | 19:42 |
| gareth_ | yeah I know it's beta. And despite the last few incarnations of ubuntu didn't have the RT kernel I could still run qjackctl in RT mode | 19:44 |
| holstein | yup | 19:44 |
| holstein | its not mandatory anymore | 19:44 |
| holstein | but, you were not getting full RT | 19:44 |
| holstein | if you look in the jack messages... its just not stopping on that "error" anymore | 19:45 |
| gareth_ | ok so what was I getting and is it possible to get the same with the 12.04 beta or will I have to wait for the RT kernel to be shipped with the release when it actually is released? | 19:46 |
| holstein | gareth_: you can try it.. you can even try it live | 19:47 |
| holstein | i cant guarantee anything til its actually released | 19:47 |
| holstein | i have tried the live CD with my firewire gear to test | 19:47 |
| holstein | you can do the same :) | 19:47 |
| gareth_ | oh wait I think you misunderstand. I've installed 12.04 studio already, done a full clean install as I wanted to go for a studio install rather than the vanilla Ubuntu. I thought I could iron these issues out when they arised | 19:49 |
| gareth_ | seeing as I was pretty confident that the firewire support was quite robust now | 19:50 |
| holstein | gareth_: cool.. you can join #ubuntu+1 | 19:50 |
| holstein | otherwise, just fire up the device, and troubleshoot the errors | 19:51 |
| holstein | i can only say, again, that my firewire device has tested fine in the 12.04 live environment on my studio rig | 19:51 |
| holstein | i would not expect 12.04 to be stable at all though for a while | 19:52 |
