| OvenWerks | note conversation in #ubuntustudio is handbrake worth including? | 16:13 |
|---|---|---|
| eylul | Ovenwerks: if you want to convert videos into mkv (and possibly mp4 too, less sure on that one) it might be the best tool out there right now. I am leaving aside the issues with MPEG codec distribution aside. So.. yes, I think? (I mean we include tools with that level of specificity in audio) | 17:58 |
| eylul | actually edit: https://handbrake.fr/news.php?article=37 | 18:03 |
| eylul | its not just mkv etc. it also supports vb8 vb9 now... yeah we should add it I think. *is still not sure why she can't get this to work on her own copy* | 18:05 |
| OvenWerks | eylul: is that something we can still do this cycle? or is it next? | 18:06 |
| eylul | uhhh. that's a harder question.. *is totally disoriented as to where we are in the cycle and goes to check* | 18:06 |
| * eylul is actually first checking if it is in the ubuntu repos | 18:08 | |
| OvenWerks | I have also (on my system installed soundconverter. It is really handy for distributing audio in more than one format | 18:08 |
| OvenWerks | I would like to add that too | 18:08 |
| eylul | lets make a package list. | 18:08 |
| eylul | even if we don't make it this round, we should keep a running list of items we want to add | 18:08 |
| OvenWerks | right | 18:08 |
| OvenWerks | I am guessing everytime I like an audio only tool, I should be thinking "I bet we need this for video too" | 18:09 |
| eylul | (btw sorry for vanishing.. I came home in early march to a one hell of a backlog of work, still trying to clear it up) | 18:10 |
| eylul | handbrake is like ffmpeg except it actually has a sane GUI | 18:10 |
| OvenWerks | eylul: no one else has been here either | 18:10 |
| eylul | it definitely is a good software. | 18:10 |
| eylul | I am around for people tagging my name so feel free to call, I just didn't have time to resurrect the meetings and regularly check with people yet because.. yeah.. life.. :) anyway.. lets see.. | 18:11 |
| * OvenWerks has had life issues here too | 18:12 | |
| eylul | nothing bad I hope? :( | 18:13 |
| eylul | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/handbrake its there and actively maintained (1.0 is the current release, or close enough) | 18:14 |
| OvenWerks | just life | 18:14 |
| eylul | so is soundconverter: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soundconverter | 18:14 |
| OvenWerks | ya I checked at least that much before I posted :) | 18:14 |
| eylul | oh sorry! :D | 18:14 |
| OvenWerks | np | 18:15 |
| eylul | we are past final beta freeze | 18:16 |
| eylul | assuming there is no delay *drops a message to kryten to ask | 18:17 |
| eylul | with no uploader, my suggestion is not to push it | 18:17 |
| eylul | especially since we have limited manpower to test too | 18:17 |
| OvenWerks | about what I fugured | 18:17 |
| eylul | but to have a meeting after the release to better coordinate the cycle, and get these two in early before we forget. :) | 18:17 |
| * OvenWerks really would like focus follows mind... | 18:18 | |
| eylul | goodness, release candidate is next week | 18:18 |
| eylul | btw ovenwerks, how is controls going? | 18:31 |
| OvenWerks | eylul: untouched mostly. I have been on meds that make me tired/sick for about 3 mon. add other stuff... not much work. | 18:32 |
| eylul | its alright. just asked to figure out where we are with it | 18:33 |
| OvenWerks | it needs to be backed down till it works... | 18:33 |
| OvenWerks | so I need to install a daily on another partition so I can trouble shoot it | 18:34 |
| eylul | *nods* | 18:34 |
| OvenWerks | I have also been tutoring a friend in sh programming... which means relearning more. | 18:38 |
| OvenWerks | he moves on to c next week I think | 18:38 |
| eylul | nice :) | 18:38 |
| eylul | ok emailing the mailing list about release.. | 18:39 |
| eylul | lets see if we can get the group together again | 18:39 |
| eylul | Ovenwerks: so wait.. is a version of controls in the zesty or not at all? | 18:41 |
| eylul | or is it only the startup script? | 18:42 |
| OvenWerks | whats there doesn't work I think. | 18:42 |
| OvenWerks | Check the dev mail list at the beginning of the month | 18:43 |
| eylul | yeah I saw that | 18:52 |
| eylul | do we need to pull out anything that is in the packages? | 18:53 |
| eylul | (the thread doesn't have the conclusion to that part) | 18:53 |
| OvenWerks | it needs to go back at least one commit.. but when he did that it didn't work for him | 18:53 |
| OvenWerks | that is why I suspect I need to test on the right version. | 18:54 |
| eylul | ok | 18:54 |
| OvenWerks | It may mean just running the gui through the new version of glade to clean it up. | 18:54 |
| eylul | glade has been breaking up for me, (but it might be that I am using KDE on top of Ubuntustudio these days) | 18:55 |
| eylul | ok | 18:55 |
| OvenWerks | :P I started everyone in the house on KDE (kubuntu) and two of them are no longer | 18:55 |
| OvenWerks | One is on lubuntu (10 plus year old machine) and the other is now xubuntu... I got tired of fixing them. | 18:56 |
| OvenWerks | my other son has had no problems | 18:56 |
| eylul | I am somewhat stuck on it.. because XFCE's ability to handle HiDPI is a bit headache inducing (literally, like causing headaches because of trying to read too small things) :D | 18:56 |
| OvenWerks | :) | 18:57 |
| OvenWerks | I can't afford (or need really) hidpi. Though it would be nice for mixbus-32c | 18:57 |
| eylul | artist | 18:58 |
| OvenWerks | Ya, I am not as visual in things | 18:58 |
| eylul | :) | 18:58 |
| eylul | but yeah.. | 18:59 |
| eylul | I need to also figure out if 17.04 is installing on this machine now.. | 18:59 |
| eylul | if I can make the time *sighs and refuses to complain further* | 18:59 |
| eylul | ok. I need to go and submit something that is due tonight.. but feel free to tag me if you need anything? (this goes for anyone else) | 19:01 |
| eylul | and it was nice talking to you Ovenwerks. :) | 19:02 |
| OvenWerks | you as well | 19:05 |
| OvenWerks | From my lasy iso I am 44.7% of the way. | 19:28 |
