=== _MOSMarauder is now known as MOSMarauder [17:49] hi all [17:49] newbee alert - is it possible to get somehow apple MOV editable into openshot ? [17:50] all the time video isnt playable [17:50] audio only :-( [17:50] i sthere a codec pack for ubuntu ? [18:00] I've never tried MOV files in OpenShot. You might have to convert it to something else, first. [18:11] where does PA get its profiles from? [18:12] and is there a way to mske your own? [18:19] Hi! i just installed ubuntu-studio, everything went well except that the fonts look somewhat "rainbow-colored" here and there.. what can i do to fix that? [18:29] sunz: have you tried simply switching the fonts? [18:30] MaynardWaters, yes, fontsize, hinting and stuff, this all affects it, but its still there, more or less [19:40] hi [19:42] i have a little problem with booting from the live dvd, maybe somebody can help me with that [19:43] if i select "Try Ubuntu Studio without installing" i get a bleck screen, then another black screen with a prompt and then i get vertical pink stripes [19:43] Farmer_: What kind of graphic card do you have? [19:43] thats ubuntu studio 12.04, with a hd 6790 [19:44] and then my moniter shuts down [19:44] monitor* [19:44] Farmer_: Have you tried the standard Ubuntu live CD? [19:45] no, i already have ubuntu on my other pc [19:46] but i can try...just have to burn another cd (dvd?) [19:46] Farmer_: You could create a bootable usb [19:46] unetbootin is easy to use [19:46] Farmer_: http://askubuntu.com/questions/125710/monitor-turns-off-while-installing-12-04http://askubuntu.com/questions/125710/monitor-turns-off-while-installing-12-04 [19:46] how many gb does that require? [19:46] Ubuntu live is the size of a CD [19:47] Not all sticks support it. Most modern systems do support booting from usb stickas [19:47] sticks* [19:47] mhh, thanks for that page....i will try that [19:48] Farmer_: If that works, you might need to install raphic drivers to get things working after that. Also, if it does not work, but standard Ubuntu does, you can always install ubuntu studio using the meta-packages: ubuntustudio-desktop, ubuntustudio-audio, etc [19:49] The latter on top of an existing Ubuntu install [19:49] ciao [19:49] ailo: thank you, i will try that [19:50] forcevesa does work [19:50] Nice [19:52] yeah, it did boot [19:52] thank you [19:52] plotino: Hello [19:52] Farmer_: Great [19:53] hello [19:53] plotino: New to Ubuntu Studio? [19:54] no [19:54] but im still at 10.09 [19:55] 10.10? [19:55] no way to update because it's installed on old machine [19:55] how to check it by shell? [19:55] You want to update using the terminal? [19:56] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [19:56] no no [19:56] just the command to see which isuue i have installed now [19:58] mhh, strange...i dont even have to type xforcevesa, just select nomodeset and it works... [19:58] plotino: It's in /etc/. Either do: cat /etc/issue, or cat/etc/*release [19:59] plotino: lsb_release -a [20:01] thnx [20:01] ok [20:01] i got 10.10 [20:01] i wanna ask to you [20:02] which is the best sw in the suite to record audio when playing back some MIDI traces? [20:03] I think all sequencers that are midi capable, and can record audio, are good for recording audio. But, some may be better at processing the audio [20:03] qtractor is ok [20:03] Ardour3 is another option [20:03] It's available as a beta release at the Ardour home page [20:04] You can also use two DAW's by syncing them. You could use qtractor for midi, but Ardour for audio [20:05] Both should be configured to follow jack transport [20:05] ardour is very heavy for my system and sometimes get my audio card stuck [20:05] what about rosegarden? [20:05] plotino: May I ask, what kind of computer is this? Processor, RAM? [20:06] rosegarden is fine as well. I find it crashes for me sometimes, but I haven't used it very much [20:06] athlon 1GHz [20:07] RAM 512 MHz [20:07] thtas the point [20:07] I used to use a similar computer a couple of years ago [20:07] i would like to have a stable and affordable system [20:07] plotino: Are you using a low latency capable kernel? [20:07] but ardour is not so stable [20:07] not now [20:07] I think all of the programs can be a bit flakey at times [20:07] before updating kernel [20:08] i had kernel RT [20:08] ok [20:08] now its generic pne [20:08] one [20:08] rt kernels can be unstable. I had some problems on the older computer [20:09] With generic, you will not be able to get low latency, but is that important to you? [20:09] plotino: Have you tried MusE? [20:09] I like the midi on MusE. The audio part is not very advanced [20:10] yes [20:10] only for midi infact [20:10] i have a creative sound blaster platinum [20:12] I think Ardour is best for mixing, etc [20:12] But for recording, I don't think it matters [20:14] so maybe rosegarden could be the final choice [20:21] plotino: I find that I can't do everything with only one SW. I do use Ardour quite a lot, but I need other DAW's for other things. Could be Ardour3 is better. You could try it. I think it should work fine on your Ubuntu version [20:22] It has midi support, but it's different from other DAW's [20:22] u use more than 1 Daw? [20:22] Yeah [20:22] Depends on what I am doing [20:22] I do mixing with Ardour [20:33] ailo [20:33] which is your instrument? [20:35] plotino: I'm allround. Drums, guitar, keyboard(piano).. [20:35] I haven't used Linux for multichannel recording much though - when recording drums [20:36] have u studied music composition? [20:36] I usually use other OS's (cause I don't record drums at home) [20:36] ok [20:36] plotino: Yes [20:36] cool [20:37] I started studying at the library, but I later studied at http://www.gotlandstonsattarskola.com/en [20:37] It's open for foreigners the last time I checked [20:37] Full time, composition only [20:38] Seems like they haven't translated everything [20:52] plotino: How about you. Did you study something? [21:09] ailo, [21:09] sorry i was busy [21:09] im an electrical bassist [21:09] and im going to learn upright [21:09] i like linux [21:10] so i play sometimes with ubuntu studio [21:20] plotino: Like holstein. He's also a bass player [21:21] He plays mostly jazz. Both electric and upright [21:21] He's usually the one most active here [21:21] i would the same :)e [22:30] ailo: missed em' :/
