Guest35377hi12:14
zequenceGuest35377: Hello12:14
Guest35377will there be an ubuntu-studio for the rpi3?12:15
Guest35377i've seen mate, xubuntu an lubuntu 16.04 for the rpi2/3, but no studio ...?12:16
zequenceGuest35377: Think all of those are done outside of the Ubuntu project, meaning it's not done inside the actual teams12:21
zequenceHaven't heard of an initiative for Ubuntu Studio12:21
OvenWerksGuest35377: There are some short comings on the Rpi when it comes to audio. The audio system is not irq based and getting good low latency operation is possible, but difficult. Not an out of the box experience for sure. We certainly don't have the expertice to support audio on the RPi.14:21
sirriffsalotOvenWerks, trying a normal +RW CD helped on the first try :P14:25
Guest35377OvenWerks, i downloaded http://phillw.net/isos/pi2/lubuntu-16.04-rc-desktop-armhf-raspberry-pi.img.xz. after "rpi-update" i am on 4.4+. will try that with external soundcards like Focusrite Scarlet and dvd-recorders ...14:40
OvenWerksGuest35377: you try searching the linux audio users mailing list archives for audio on the Pi as well. (maybe LAD too) I seem to remember some threads about that.14:42
OvenWerkssirriffsalot: I have found my writer is sensitive to media as well.14:42
sirriffsalotOvenWerks, Only used the writer now as a favour :P14:43
Guest35377OvenWerks, what does "LAD" means?15:08
OvenWerksLinux Audio Developers15:10
OvenWerksalso look at http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/raspberrypi15:13
Guest35377scarlet is working fine on ubuntu studio. my questin was/is, will there be a ubuntu studio for the rpi3? i know, musician never got money, therfore i thought it will be a nice alternative ...15:13
KimrydI can't answer your question, but what is performance on a rpi like in the context of audio?15:19
OvenWerksGuest35377: Not an ISO no, I don't know how well the studio meta packages would work on the rpi either. but that would be the way to go. There are some applications (like Ardour) that are not likely to run on a Pi (even though there is an armhf version) just because of memory size. Jack is problematic as well.15:19
Guest35377I've still seen, that there are apps unter lubuntu 16.04 by "sudo apt search studio"15:21
Guest35377will try them ...15:22
KimrydI can't see it going very far, mind you I'm pretty dependent on FabFilter plugins and ozone in particular15:23
OvenWerksGuest35377: Here is a thread on some peoples thoughts from LAU: http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2015-March/100993.html There are some other threads too.15:24
Guest35377OvenWerks, 2015 is too old, we are on 4.4 / 4.5 ...15:25
OvenWerksyes, but the problems are hardware not software for the most part. There are better platforms for audio in the arm world is what this is saying.15:27
Guest35377OvenWerks, yes, hardware, and if i am right, hardware is kernel depending, isn't it?15:28
OvenWerksI am using a Pi as the heart of an OSC (maybe MIDI) based control surface. But because it is really just a fancy UI, it is no lowlatency or RT-ish or anything like that15:28
OvenWerksto an extent, Hardware limits tend to be hard limits.15:29
Guest35377OvenWerks, cool, i asked that some minutes ago in #lubuntu. rt, low-latency or normal kernel ... how to figure out or patch it ...15:30
OvenWerksfor example, some of the digital mixers around even with 40bit DSP do not sound as nice as some 32bit DSP. This is a hardware case because the 40bits are INT math and the 32 bit is float.15:30
OvenWerks(then there are some that are 64bit float over kill ;)15:32
OvenWerksGuest35377: patching for low latency is just a switch. RT is more invasive15:33
Guest35377OvenWerks, how to i know, what the rpi2/3-kernel is? "uname -r" only shows "4.4.7-v7+"15:39
OvenWerksuname -a shows a little more... but I think you can assume iot is the same as the generic in intel terms15:41
Guest35377uname -a15:42
Guest35377Linux zwerg3 4.4.7-v7+ #877 SMP Sun Apr 17 12:48:36 BST 2016 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux15:42
=== michael__ is now known as Guest1506
Guest1506as i said, "uname -a" Linux zwerg3 4.4.7-v7+ #877 SMP Sun Apr 17 12:48:36 BST 2016 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux, it is not helpfully ..15:45
OvenWerksGuest1506: the config file seems to be in /usr/src/linux-headers-*/arch/arm/Kconfig15:58
OvenWerksHmm, except rasperian does include that.16:03
OvenWerksprobably need to DL the headers package. May be easier to do the compile on another machine for the Pi anyway.16:04
OvenWerks*does not16:04
OvenWerksbasically the lowlatency kernel has preempt set.16:04
james1138Hello all. Is Kino the only video editing software that handles digitial video (DV)?  I have old VHS tapes to make into MP4 files. Or is the a GUI for dvgrab?17:45
sirriffsalotjames1138, did you try ardour?18:01
OvenWerkssirriffsalot: for video?18:02
sirriffsalotOvenWerks, it edits video now does it not?18:02
OvenWerkssirriffsalot: no, it has a video monitor for editing audio to fit the video.18:03
OvenWerksThe video is synced to the audio.18:03
sirriffsalotOvenWerks, oh, jesus... sorry, I knew that... Even tried it myself *facepalm*18:04
OvenWerksDVSwitch http://dvswitch.alioth.debian.org/wiki/ is about the closest thing to a GUI for dvgrab.18:13
OvenWerksjames1138: ^^^ this is different from https://github.com/Voley/DVSwitch which is only a gui tool to make guis :P18:15
sirriffsalotjames1138, sorry about that, lol18:17
OvenWerkslast edit end of 201418:17
sakrecoerjames1138: kdenlive can import DV tapes18:18
sakrecoerjames1138: i wouldn't know how to import VHS tho...18:19
sakrecoerbut yeah, kdenlive detects my camera via firewire18:19
james1138I have a old ADS Tech DVD Xpress capture device (USB) in addition to my trusty old VCR player.18:21
sakrecoerjames1138: this http://www.desktop-video-guide.com/capture-video-dvd-xpress.html ?18:30
james1138Yes. That is what I own.18:31
sakrecoerif it is, not sure you will find drivers for it on linux. but i haven't investigated further... you could bring your vhs to a photolab, that is what they now that there aren't too many photo jobs: converting formats and scaning18:31
james1138The software appears to work okay under Wine.18:32
sakrecoerwell, in that case i would skip the DV part, and make DVD/VCD/SVCD straight away18:35
sakrecoerthat way you have the disc as backup, and then you rip your own disc to mp418:35
sakrecoer^ james113818:35
james1138Humm...18:43
zequencejames1138: wine and usb does not work very well though18:45
zequence..even if the application itself does18:45
zequenceI've tried using usb video capture devices, and was able to get one to work somewhat. No luck getting anything useful on file though18:45
sakrecoerjames1138: https://opensource.com/life/15/6/VHS-conversion-MP4-Linux18:50
sakrecoerjames1138: https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Easycap18:51
sakrecoerjames1138: http://forum.videohelp.com/threads/248203-Converting-VHS-to-DVD-under-Linux-HOWTO18:51
james1138Thanks Sakerecore! I saved the last link as a PDF file18:55
james1138Sorry!  Sakrecore!18:55
zequencejames1138: Use tab to autocomplete, depending on hour irc client18:56
zequencethe TAB key, that is18:56
zequenceand s/hour/your18:56
sakrecoerno problem james1138 :)18:57
sakrecoerjames1138: i think the linuxtv link is good to keep also, to identify devices that will work in linux18:59
sakrecoeroh, well the forum.videohelp.com links to that wiki  anyways :)18:59
james1138The one link said "Openshot"... does OpenShot work with DV?19:00
OvenWerksjames1138: I see no indication that openshot imports anything other files19:03
OvenWerks(as of 14.04)19:03
james1138Ok19:05
sakrecoeri know that blender and kdenlive can handle raw .dv files. but i only kdenlive that can communicate with a DV camcorder through firewire...19:11
sakrecoerbut if you want to import VHS, you shouldn't need to bother about DV files... but then again, i'm in no way an expert in this19:12
james1138I just found this... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_video_editing_software19:14
sakrecoeri'd recommend kdenlive.19:16
sakrecoerpersonaly i prefere blender, but it takes a bit to learn it19:16
sakrecoerkdenlive is fairly straight forwardm whilst having some very nice features.19:16
sakrecoerptivi is very straight forward, but also rather minimal19:17
james1138OpenShot seems to not have many KDE dependancies19:18
sakrecoerright openshot! i almost forgot :) it's nice too, kindof basic but very nice. gotta love the effects they provide19:19
sakrecoeropenshot and pitivi are great tools to familirize your self with video editing.19:20
sakrecoerlooking at pitivi, it seems to have come a long way since last time i checked.19:24
zequenceI use openshot mostly, but I do very simple editing19:24
zequenceYes, pitivi is probably worth checking out these days19:24
james1138<grin> I am just converting VHS tapes zequence...  not re-editing Star Wars.19:25
zequencejames1138: Well, you can't import using openshot though, from what I've understood19:26
zequenceThere are a few apps that can do that. Some of them work either with a webcam or a usb video in tool. As long as the usb thing is recognized in Ubuntu19:27
zequenceThat's the whole issue really19:27
zequenceNot which application you use19:27
zequenceSimples is just to try an application that is known to work with video capture19:28
james1138Sorry all19:30
james1138Sorry about that19:30
