holstein | ornj: hmmm. i dont recall it having it.. whats it doing? | 01:49 |
---|---|---|
ornj | well... whatever service it uses to look up track titles | 01:53 |
holstein | well, its all open, so, the answer is always yes, but, i havent noticed it looking up anything for me | 01:53 |
ornj | 'cause it certainly ain't gettin' em from me! | 01:53 |
holstein | ornj: could be getting information from the track it self | 01:54 |
holstein | ornj: disable network connection, put in new cd.. | 01:54 |
ornj | heh | 01:54 |
ornj | Really? So I have to shut off my Internets? | 01:54 |
holstein | ? | 01:54 |
ornj | Of course, as soon as I turn it back on... | 01:54 |
holstein | ornj: no.. im saying, *test* this, by doing that.. disable the network, put in a CD that you havent used yet | 01:54 |
ornj | In fact, it says "retrieving" or something while it is pulling the new names | 01:55 |
holstein | then, if the info comes up, its baked in the track. if it doenst, then, reconnect and see if it get the information | 01:55 |
ornj | I know what you're saying. It gets them off the 'Net. | 01:55 |
holstein | ornj: sure.. its just that, is it off the net? | 01:55 |
holstein | lets see.. its probably the ccdb plugin.. it comes in with the pacakge | 01:57 |
holstein | let me just open it and see how to disable.. | 01:57 |
ornj | tries to use cddb:// | 01:57 |
ornj | "Error consulting CDDB server: Unknown host name" | 01:57 |
ornj | Thank you | 01:57 |
holstein | i would look under "plugins" in the menu | 01:58 |
holstein | personally, i would just diable them all, since you are trying to get it to do less | 01:58 |
holstein | you'll then be able to see that its not reaching cddb, and add back what you need, if anything | 01:59 |
ornj | Well, plugins also do things like play everything | 02:04 |
holstein | ornj: sure. so, you can test.. and put back what you need | 02:05 |
ornj | And I also appear to have broken all my existing playlists, which kind of sucks | 02:05 |
holstein | ornj: i dont have a CD player here, handy.. nor a CD to test for you | 02:05 |
ornj | What a giant pain in the balls | 02:05 |
ornj | So, in short, "I don't know [if there is one]." | 02:05 |
ornj | Well, thanks anyway | 02:05 |
holstein | ? | 02:06 |
holstein | ornj: are you saying, that im trying to say, i dont know that there is a "Fix"? | 02:06 |
holstein | anyways, i dont think you'll have any issue isolating what the plugins do.. | 02:06 |
holstein | if i had a CD here, and an optical drive, handy, id just do it real quick, and let you know which one is it | 02:07 |
ornj | UGH | 02:08 |
ornj | Found it | 02:08 |
ornj | After disabling EVERYTHING | 02:08 |
holstein | yup. thats what i would have had to do.. just disable them, and see what is waht | 02:09 |
holstein | what* | 02:09 |
ornj | Yeah, well | 02:09 |
ornj | no | 02:09 |
holstein | and, now you know | 02:09 |
ornj | because you disable the Audio CD plugin, you can't play CDs | 02:09 |
holstein | right. so, you add that one back.. | 02:09 |
ornj | you enable it, you have your 'Net connected, it retrieves titles | 02:09 |
ornj | No Audio CD plugin - no sound. Audio CD plugin - sound+titles. | 02:10 |
holstein | sure.. so, grab/extract the audio, leave disabled.. ask the developers.. use another player like vlc.. etc | 02:10 |
holstein | maybe there is an audio cd playback only version.. anyways.. you can always just disable the network, and play the cd | 02:11 |
ornj | What you have to do is go into the Preferences FOR THAT SPECIFIC plugin | 02:11 |
holstein | whats the issue with cddb access? | 02:11 |
ornj | and uncheck "Use CDDB." | 02:11 |
holstein | right.. sounds like thats what you need.. enjoy, then | 02:12 |
ornj | :) | 02:12 |
ornj | Danke | 02:12 |
ornj | Because I see no reason to share my listening habits and I usually have to go in to fix spelling/capitalization/stupid genre classification/etc. issues anyway. | 02:15 |
holstein | no one will make you use it.. i think you are assuming they take anything from you.. but, disable what you like | 02:17 |
ornj | No, no one "makes" me use it, but it's clearly a giant, obfuscated pain to disable. | 02:18 |
ornj | You're telling me freedb.org keeps *no* logs of who queries the server for what? | 02:18 |
ornj | OK, wait | 02:20 |
ornj | after all this is Audacious not even what I want to rip to FLAC/Vorbis? | 02:21 |
holstein | no. im not saying that.. im saying, you may be assuming they are.. and that you also are free to not use the service | 02:22 |
holstein | i use soundconverter.. i'll rip to lossless something.. and convert to what i need | 02:23 |
holstein | !info soundconverter | 02:23 |
ubottu | soundconverter (source: soundconverter): GNOME application to convert audio files into other formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.5-1 (vivid), package size 102 kB, installed size 1097 kB | 02:23 |
ornj | Wait, you rip to a lossless format, then convert from that? | 02:24 |
holstein | correct.. something that matches the quality of the source | 02:25 |
holstein | lossless 16/44.1 for example.. wav.. for CD.. then, i convert to what i want from there | 02:25 |
ornj | You use Soundconverter to rip as well? | 02:26 |
holstein | no.. its not a ripper | 02:26 |
holstein | its a converter | 02:26 |
ornj | Right, so... I'm still... The question was what to rip with. | 02:26 |
holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping | 02:26 |
* ornj shrugs, goes off to google. | 02:27 | |
holstein | i dont deal with CD's anymore | 02:27 |
holstein | but, when i did, i used that appliation ^ | 02:27 |
ornj | I'm a little shocked Ubuntu Studio doesn't seem to come with a tool for this. | 02:27 |
Unit193 | I think I used sound-juicer last time. | 02:28 |
holstein | !info sound-juicer | 02:28 |
ubottu | sound-juicer (source: sound-juicer): GNOME CD Ripper. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.14.0-1build1 (vivid), package size 1362 kB, installed size 4710 kB | 02:28 |
ornj | Yes; it doesn't come installed. | 02:29 |
ornj | Odd. | 02:29 |
holstein | its in the repos.. easy to add | 02:29 |
holstein | ubuntustudio is not for that.. not aiming for audio consumption | 02:29 |
holstein | its more setup for creating audio files, and art.. not consuming the art.. | 02:29 |
ornj | . . . | 02:29 |
holstein | by default, its not intended to be a "cd ripping station" | 02:30 |
ornj | Fair enough, I suppose. | 02:30 |
ornj | *lol* | 02:30 |
ornj | I didn't think extracting audio tracks from a CD turned my studio setup into a "CD ripping station." | 02:30 |
ornj | Forgot I had cdrdao on this thing. | 02:32 |
Unit193 | OK? Bye? | 02:32 |
holstein | "im shocked ubuntustudio isnt catered for my complete needs, out of the box" ;) | 02:32 |
holstein | anyways.. new musescore! ..looks slick | 02:33 |
Unit193 | Heh, well I don't do a lot. Mine tends to be live streaming, and the client side of that is Windows anyway. So while I have Icecast2 on the server, butt is on the Windows computer. Of course, Linux could use darkice, butt or even something else. | 02:34 |
german | how can i run python in ubuntu studio? | 03:48 |

holstein | anyways, its the same as ubuntu. anything you see for directions in ubuntu will be the same | 03:50 |
german | ok | 03:50 |
Tooncenator | holstein - It works! Can't believe how simple the solution turned out to be. I totally forgot that in the same setup where I specified the the soundcard to use, that you could specify both the Input AND the output! lol. So I changed the output to the other chip inside the m-audio box (it has two), and I'm good to go! Thanks again for your help and patience! | 05:15 |
Tooncenator | *headsmack* + sigh of relief | 05:16 |
=== rob is now known as Guest95459 | ||
holstein | Tooncenator: good to hear | 15:35 |
holstein | yes, thats why i do, and suggest, using a live iso, to remove any little config settings like that from the equation | 15:36 |
holstein | one can easily see how a stock environment works, without "breaking" the current installation | 15:36 |
holstein | and in many cases, copy, or save config settings that are working | 15:36 |
