| kellerwolf | hi everyone | 21:44 |
| rickbol | any one know of a way to process Audible .aa files into mp3? | 22:43 |
| rickbol | as a second option, is there any way to hook the audio of a Wine app and expose it in Jack or pipe it to a recording app? | 22:44 |
| rickbol | ... a recording app in Linux? | 22:45 |
| len-dt | I would look at sox first. | 22:45 |
| rickbol | I'm not familiar with sox as it's relatively new, no? Is it standard under 12.04? | 22:46 |
| len-dt | Not sure.. I am on 12.10 right now and it shows there... I don't recall it being new though so it should be | 22:47 |
| len-dt | It is a command line tool | 22:47 |
| rickbol | I see. Audible implements a proprietary DRM encryption. I don't think anyone's has decoded it (yet?). | 22:48 |
| len-dt | that could be. Sox doesn't list .aa in the man page | 22:49 |
| len-dt | I am not familiar with wine really | 22:49 |
| len-dt | I don't have windows partitions on my machines. and so have no need. | 22:50 |
| rickbol | Audible doesn't provide a way to play the files natively in linux, but there windows player works under Wine, so I wanted to record the audio out on the same machines. | 22:50 |
| len-dt | If the player output will see something compatible with jack it should work. | 22:51 |
| len-dt | Not the best week to ask with so many people not at home.... (Ubuntu convention) | 22:52 |
| len-dt | I really don't know the routing of audio in wine. If it goes through pulse there should be no problem. | 22:53 |
| len-dt | rickbol, Have you run the player in wine yourself? | 22:55 |
| rickbol | len-dt: yep. works, mostly. I think it stopped playing before EOF a couple of times. | 22:58 |
| len-dt | While it is playing if you open pavucontrol under the playback tab do you see wine? | 22:59 |
| rickbol | I don't know pulse. I'm checking... | 23:00 |
| len-dt | pavucontrol can be started from the multimedia menu as pulse audio control | 23:00 |
| rickbol | oops. I'm booted into AVLinux5.x currently. It doesn't have Pulse. Hmmm. | 23:05 |
| len-dt | I'm not so good with raw alsa routing. | 23:06 |
| len-dt | The wine page says the jack doesn't work with wine right now. I guess lots of the win 7 drivers are changing a lot right now. | 23:06 |
| rickbol | Interestingly, Audible does have an app for android. I wonder one could hook the audio out on a rooted phone? I know nothing about android. | 23:13 |
| len-dt | rickbol, even with just alsa it may be possible to run your player and run audacity to record from the sound card input and just connect one to the other with the right cable. | 23:14 |
| len-dt | It is possible to configure alsa to show the inputs and outputs as two devices. | 23:15 |
| rickbol | a loopback cable would probably do it, but seems it should be able to be hooked before hardware output. | 23:16 |
| len-dt | I know how in pulse and jack, but I don't know how with raw alsa. The sound card itself may be able to... the maudio delta series does. | 23:18 |
| len-dt | It depends on what monitoring hw it has. | 23:18 |
| Mikasi | anyone here in charge of stupid questions? | 23:28 |
| len-dt | Ask away... we'll try to answer. | 23:33 |
| Mikasi | thanks. I have a 3tb HD with several tiff files on it. How do I find them? Which program do I use? My attempts at File Manager tell me they don't exist | 23:37 |
| len-dt | Owe. All one partition? | 23:40 |
| Mikasi | Yepper - it is an external HD that I rotate between my studio machine and a Windows machine | 23:40 |
| len-dt | So ntfs? | 23:41 |
| len-dt | Or vfat? | 23:41 |
| Mikasi | Nothing special - just right off the shelf. I didn't do any formating or make any partitians | 23:42 |
| len-dt | But you can mount it and see other files on it with linux? | 23:42 |
| Mikasi | Yes, I can. I just have several thousand photo files on there and dread doing the sorting by hand. | 23:45 |
| Mikasi | and as you can tell by my responses I am not sharp on the subject of computers - sorry bout that | 23:45 |
| len-dt | No Problem. | 23:46 |
| len-dt | The file manager nautilus does have a search function. Set the directory to search to the directory where the device is (or maybe the device name) and look for .tif or .tiff. It seems to me you don't need to do *.tif... in fact it may not work. | 23:47 |
| len-dt | On a 3t drive it may take a while. | 23:51 |
| Mikasi | let me try | 23:51 |
| Mikasi | thanks | 23:51 |
| Mikasi | I had the directory set wrong, but it did locate some tiff files. | 23:55 |
| Mikasi | for what it's worth, I had luck when searching for tiff bu had no luck searching for either .tiff or *.tiff | 23:55 |
| Mikasi | thanks much! | 23:55 |
| len-dt | No problem | 23:56 |
| Mikasi | Last question - does anyone here shoot video and edit it? Just looking for first hand recommendations on which program to use to edit video that is high enough quality for TV broadcast. | 23:56 |
| len-dt | I'm not going to try to answer that one :) I'm an audio guy. I do know that blender has been used to make a high rez movie. But I do know there are others too. | 23:59 |
