[18:34] <studio-user834> Where is the best place to find help with keeping pulse audio working on Studio? Everytime it gets messed up it takes me forever to get sound back again.

[22:01] <JDA2> I have a ubuntustudio newbie question, if anyone is active on this channel
[22:27] <JDA2> I have a ubuntustudio newbie question, if anyone is active on this channel
[22:32] <krytarik> JDA2: You know, just ask it.. :)
[22:33] <JDA2> Sorry for the "noise" post.  :-)   I am trying to find a Linux distro that will support video capture from my Hauppauge WinTV card.  But I don't know if naitve ubuntustudio will do that, or whether I have to customize it with drivers for my TV card.
[22:36] <krytarik> Well, I'm using one myself, and I don't remember having done anything extra on my current install to make it work.. :D
[22:38] <JDA2> Sounds encouraging.  As a real newbie, I tried opening Kdenlive, and in the configuration window, it seems to acknowledge that there is a Hauppauge card there.  That sounded good.   But I don't see what to click to see if it can view the TV.
[22:39] <JDA2> Should I be using some other program?
[22:39] <krytarik> I'm just using plain MPlayer for it myself. >_>
[22:48] <JDA2> OK thanks.  As a real video+linux newbie, I was not familiar with mplayer.  Looks like it has LOTS of options!  Could you tell me what parameters you use to access your TV card?
[22:55] <krytarik> Are we talking digital or analog here anyway?  I got the latter.
[22:56] <JDA2> Analog.  I hope to hook VCR to the coax jack and import old home movies.
[23:10] <krytarik> JDA2: Ok, so I got 1.) in my config: tv = driver=v4l2:chanlist=europe-west:norm=PAL:buffersize=150:device=/dev/video0:input=0:width=720:height=576:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:alsa=1:audiorate=32000:immediatemode=0 -- heartbeat-cmd = "nice xscreensaver-command -deactivate > /dev/null" -- plus the channels, and 2.) in a custom shell script I called "tv": mplayer -aspect 4:3 -vf-add pp -autoq 6 ...
[23:10] <krytarik> ... -vf-add eq=0:0,pp=hb:c/vb:c/dr:c/lb:c/tn -af volume=6:0 -framedrop "${@:2}" tv://$1
[23:15] <JDA2> OK, thanks krytarik.  I will give those a try.   (I am not on that computer right now, unfortunately)   I appreciate your help!
