[02:08] i made a program launcher for panel 2 that runs sudo swapoff -a && sudo swapon -vda in terminal. when i click on it, a terminal window pops up asking for my password then closes upon entering. Neither command are being run (if i paste into terminal it works fine) whats going on? [02:32] fixed: "sudo sh -c 'swapoff -a && swapon -vda'" [11:05] Quick question with hopefully a short answer [11:05] why does my install keep randomly forgetting I have a keyboard and mouse [12:14] Howdy folks :) Installing Ubuntu Studio now...exciting times. [12:15] Kind of neat to drop into IRC _during_ the installation process. [12:15] flip: 12.04? [12:16] Just grabbed the latest stable of the site minutes ago. [12:16] Didn't catch the version foolishly. [12:16] cfhowlett: anything I should watch out for? :) [12:17] install complete. Going down for reboot. Ciao for now. [12:20] good luck! Personally, my preference is to use LTS only releases and avoid the biannual upgrade headache. [12:25] cfhowlette: 12.04 indeed [12:36] flip: nice. Enjoy. [15:12] I have just installed UbuntuStudio 12.04 to Oracle Virtualbox on Win 7. Any suggestions on any special settings. I set up a 64 Gig fixed size "disk" and gave it 1 Gig of memory. [15:14] Also, I am very familiar with Gnome 2, and XFCE is new to me. Thoughts on putting in a limited Gnome 2 desktop? [15:27] Sarexpert_: You might not get the audio performance you'd like using a virtual install. What are you using US for? [15:40] hi [15:40] how to create mp3-chapters in audacity? [15:49] raven, first I need to know what a chapter is is an MP#. [15:49] I can guess... but I don't know. [15:50] some mp3 podcasts have chapter marks i can jump to with vlc like dvd chapter marks - i need to do that too [15:51] That was what I thought. [15:52] I suspect that audacity doesn't do that on it's own and they would have to be added later. [15:53] id3v2 does that though. [15:55] there is also libid3-tools [15:56] are theese timeline tools? [15:57] I am not sure. Just looking through the installer.... Just opened audacity to look at that. [15:58] ok i have to cut an event realtime so i cannot test theese tools now [15:58] ill look at it later [15:59] audacity does not do this. [15:59] I can understand why you would want that though, sort of a gcdmaster for mp3s. [16:00] I think most people in music ship a set of files, but chapters make sense to me. [16:06] try this: [16:06] http://www.ehow.com/how_12212042_make-chapters-audacity.html [16:07] It seems there is a way to make chapters in audacity... but not in the export section where I looked. [16:07] raven ^^^ [16:11] Nope, that is not what you want, It just splits the file into smaller files. [17:08] len-dt are you there? [17:10] raven, Ya [17:10] now i need any way to add chapters [17:11] i looked at the two apps but i do not know how to use it for that [17:12] I am not sure either. It seems that the chapter part of the id3v2 is not included in the main spec, but is an addendum. [17:12] how to find out? i would work with entering each chapter by hand but how to use id3v2? [17:13] This means that having an id editor or a player that is compliant does not mean it has chapters. [17:13] ? [17:14] There is not much information on this... even though it has been around since 2005 [17:14] i listen to a lot of pocasts, and have never used chapters... is that a featuer of a particular player raven ? [17:14] at least of vlc but i need this option [17:15] I think it is the mp3 editor/encoder/idmaker [17:15] sure.. im just trying to determine what that option is, as i have not heard of it [17:15] It is there holstein ,but not common. [17:15] for example at webradio stations you have changing id tags and i think that is nothing different to chapters [17:16] theese are just changing ids [17:16] raven: it is quite different [17:16] raven: an id tage is an id tag.. chapters are like placeholders [17:16] chapter tags reside at the begining of the mp3 file [17:16] anything like "enhanced podcasts" which also is able to include changing images [17:16] there is also a set of TOC tags [17:17] anyway how to add this to an mp3? [17:18] raven, I think any of us would have to do the same research you would to find out. [17:18] raven: import the audio to ardour.. export to whatever.. convert to mp3.. though that is overkill for what you want [17:18] raven: what is the goal? [17:19] raven: if you are creating the content, and wanting to create markers for listeners, i wouldnt bother... [17:19] i would say few know about them... or use them [17:20] i think after digging around and coming up with some 'less than elegant' solution, you'll be able to implement something several people will notice [17:20] holstein, in a two hour podcast it would be nice to listen to 20 min and come back to it with out having to try to find the same place. [17:21] sure, but thats not a chapter mark.. thats a feature of my playter [17:21] The problem is that any of the podcasts I listen to are made by people who just barely know how to record the audio file and package to mp3 [17:21] player*.. it resumes [17:22] http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=68075 [17:22] It could be a chapter mark.
