[12:03] <kolo> Is it possible to burn subtitles in the ~ middle of screen?
[12:23] <sakrecoer_> kolo: can you elaborate? what software?
[12:23] <sakrecoer_> do you mean like a title or a subtitle with timecode?
[12:24] <kolo> I want to carve it on video (aka hard sub)
[12:25] <kolo> like a title
[12:26] <kolo> sakrecoer_: I want to burn some title in different position in different times of vide
[12:28] <sakrecoer_> kolo, ok :)and what video editor are you using?
[12:33] <sakrecoer_> kolo: however, regardless of the program, the universal way (works with all video editor) is to create slides with a transparent background to use a "titles-cards"
[12:33] <sakrecoer_> it's the best way to be able to use the font fomratting you want in any software (some have limited title options)
[12:33] <sakrecoer_> it makes it a bit more complicated to correct spelling errors, but it works super.
[12:33] <sakrecoer_> i do it that way..
[12:34] <sakrecoer_> create a picture with the same resolution in gimp for example,
[12:34] <kolo> I wasn't using any special program. I burned subtitles by: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf subtitles=input.srt out.mp4
[12:34] <sakrecoer_> oh... well, my compteneces with ffmpeg are very limited
[12:35] <sakrecoer_> but i recon, you should be able to input a picture file at a given timecode aswell?...
[12:35] <sakrecoer_> kolo:
[12:36] <sakrecoer_> maybe try to ask in the ffmpeg support channel, not sure which one that would be tho...
[12:36] <kolo> sakrecoer_: Your way is a feature-rich way, I can do many things. How do you burn your slides on the video?
[12:37] <sakrecoer_> i use blender for video editing
[12:37] <sakrecoer_> with the blender velvets plugin, let me find the link for you
[12:38] <sakrecoer_> kolo: http://blendervelvets.org/
[12:39] <kolo> Ah, Blender
[12:39] <sakrecoer_> but you can do it that way in kdenlive aswell...
[12:40] <kolo> Probabely it's the best but it take time to lear blender. Thank you for the clue. I try to finde a solution for  burning img on video by ffmpeg
[12:40] <sakrecoer_> best of luck kolo ! :)
[12:43] <kolo> I found sth here: http://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#overlay-1
[12:44] <kolo> Anyway; to try to learn an linear video editor, which one is recommended: Blender or kdenlive or...?
[12:45] <kolo> sakrecoer_:   I mean sth feature-rich
[12:49] <sakrecoer_> kolo: great, i hope that works for you! awesome that you come back and share a hint of your sollution!
[12:50] <sakrecoer_> i'd say kdenlive is easier to get along with if you are familiar with video sequencers...
[12:50] <sakrecoer_> but i personaly prefere blender, for its intercompatibility: you can collab with people on any os...
[12:50] <sakrecoer_> i have to go eat... feel free to ask more, i will read the backlog :)
[12:50] <sakrecoer_> and perhaps others will find a moment to help you :)
[12:51] <kolo> Thanks
[12:55] <sakrecoer_> kolo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYVZ6rtayaA the VSe has gotten a quite a few improvements since that tutorial was published :) bye now..
[13:13] <Guest93507> somebody here ?
[13:13] <cfhowlett> !ask
[15:54] <cfhowlett> you mean at high resolution/large size?
[15:58] <Guest34077> Hi
[15:58] <Guest34077> I have a quick question.
[15:59] <Guest34077> How come we have proprietary driver for video card,  but not sound card?
[16:00] <Guest34077> I have been using Linux for seven years now, but I still can't figure why.
[16:00] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: best thing you can do about it ask the same question to the brand coding the driver of your soundcard :/
[16:00] <sakrecoer_> ask them why they don't do drivers for linux..
[16:01] <sakrecoer_> and tell them you really want them to do that
[16:01] <Guest34077> You meant the company likes "Creative"?
[16:01] <cfhowlett> yep
[16:01] <sakrecoer_> also ask your friends running GNU/Linux with the same soundcard to aldo write them. With a little pressure, they might consider doing it..
[16:02] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: yes, the brand building/coding for your soundcard
[16:02] <Guest34077> I keep picturing "Dell" has business relationship with Canomical, but why not the sound card company.
[16:03] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: i'm pretty sure canonical would be all up for it. it really is a matter of the soundcard brands not caring enough about GNU/Linux users.. :(
[16:03] <Guest34077> If I am Canomical, I would send "Creative Lab" a sell person :)
[16:04] <Guest34077> Which sound card companies have the best relationship with Linux?
[16:05] <Guest34077> I also think AMD has sound card unit?
[16:16] <Guest34077> Now,
[16:17] <Guest34077> which sound card do you think is the best for home PC?
[16:19] <Guest34077> I googled and it once said ASUS Xonar DG, and I am using one now.
[16:30] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: "the best soundcard" is an impossible question to answer. it depends on so many things: your needs, your set-up, your taste...
[16:31] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: let me find a link for you about soundcards known to work in GNU/Linux
[16:31] <Guest34077> Let's say best sound for gamer.
[16:32] <Guest34077> I just want to learn. I believe I know how to choose compatible sound card.
[16:32] <Guest34077> Not, best sound for sound engineer.
[16:32] <Guest34077> :)
[16:34] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/SupportedHardware#Audio_Devices
[16:34] <sakrecoer_> Guest34077: http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/hardware_matrix
[16:35] <sakrecoer_> For sound in games you can achieve greaet quality with the built-in soundcard of your computer
[16:35] <sakrecoer_> what i'm guessing is important in games would be surround sound
[16:36] <sakrecoer_> i think pulse audio would handle that pretty well, given you have outputs that allow you to connect multiple speakers to your computer
[16:37] <sakrecoer_> but you will probably find more usefull tips about gaming audio within a gameing communty for GNULinux... i'm a total ignorant about gaming so i can't really guide you there..
[16:41] <Guest34077> I see.
[16:41] <Guest34077> Wow. Thank you. Happy Chinese New Year.
[18:31] <fabio> hello
[18:32] <Guest5582> hello
[18:32] <Guest5582> people
[18:32] <Guest5582> i need help to install gigedit
[18:32] <Guest5582> to edit gig samples
[23:23] <erick> Hi, I have a question.
[23:25] <Guest18874> If, one day, I use a logical drive (3 HDs, for example) for Ubuntu Studio OS, will that make my PC faster?
[23:26] <Guest18874> In Oracle Database at my office, database would be faster if the data are across multiple disk.
[23:30] <Guest18874> I am thinking more reading and writing power through multiple HDs.
[23:34] <NoteOn> hi
[23:35] <Guest18874> hi
[23:35] <NoteOn> multi hdd? I don't think so.
[23:36] <NoteOn> in daw its just one big file. in each part..
[23:36] <NoteOn> not db..
[23:38] <Guest18874> shouldn't such big file be gathered around multiple disks?
[23:38] <Guest18874> Right now, I am using EXT4 at home.
[23:38] <Guest18874> What if I can choose different file system?
[23:38] <NoteOn> sorry my english am japanese..
[23:39] <NoteOn> anway in linux there is a way, multi hdd as one hdd..
[23:39] <NoteOn> but in daw work, I think not affected.. so...
[23:39] <Guest18874> I know there is a way :) It is called logical volume, I think.
[23:39] <NoteOn> how about netjack then more pc's even not fast pc.
[23:40] <Guest18874> what is netjack?
[23:40] <NoteOn> netjack is via lan to connect ..
[23:40] <NoteOn> wait
[23:41] <NoteOn> http://netjack.sourceforge.net/
[23:42] <NoteOn> http://jackaudio.org/faq/netjack.html
[23:43] <Guest18874> Wow, I did not know you can do that with audio, beside the data.
[23:43] <NoteOn> so you can find example using this. I use sometimes but not haavy work.. so maybe other users case is better
[23:43] <NoteOn> LAN needs giga=1000M for good speed  but in herer 100M works fine..
[23:44] <NoteOn> point for me is 2pc's makes more power than 1 hiend pc.
[23:44] <NoteOn> I think that google do in server;
[23:45] <Guest18874> More PCs are better.
[23:45] <Guest18874> I see. I have not tried that.
[23:45] <Guest18874> I will one day.
[23:45] <NoteOn> ya, and like video editing? it can render in other pc.. then etc..
[23:46] <Guest18874> Video Editing, in other pc, is also faster?
[23:46] <Guest18874> Are you sure? I have not heard?
[23:46] <NoteOn> in cakewalk sonnor , new function is render sysnth? this means not realtime plugin does. render to wav.. in track.. so keep pc faster
[23:47] <Guest18874> Ummm.
[23:47] <NoteOn> in example we can do this kind in netjack.
[23:47] <Guest18874> Thank you.
[23:47] <Guest18874> See you.
[23:47] <NoteOn> realtime such as kb input midi to record is not good I think but
[23:47] <NoteOn> most case you can do many
[23:48] <NoteOn> cu
