| creepancake | Hello everybody, I'm looking for help with Lubuntu..anyone willing to? | 11:53 |
|---|---|---|
| diogenes_ | !ask | creepancake | 12:00 |
| ubottu | creepancake: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 12:01 |
| creepancake | I recently installed lubuntu on a Asus E200HA netbook, everything works fine except for video and audio streaming, tried on firefox, chrome and chromium. Videos on youtube are laggy and without audio. On win 10 I did not have those problems so I excluded an hardware related issue. The netbook has an Intel Atom x5-Z8300 with integrated graphics and 2GB RAM. Thanks in advance | 12:09 |
| guiverc | creepancake, what release of Lubuntu? | 12:10 |
| creepancake | 18.04 | 12:10 |
| guiverc | 18.04, 18.04.1, 18.04.2, 18.04.3? | 12:10 |
| guiverc | (I'm asking if you are using HWE or the later kernel & software stack which will contain later drivers esp. video..) | 12:11 |
| creepancake | 18.04.3 | 12:12 |
| guiverc | creepancake, if you're near or on box; uname -r will say 4.15 is older ISOs were used; 5.0 if ... :) | 12:12 |
| creepancake | 5.0.0-37-generic | 12:13 |
| guiverc | yep & thanks... thinking... If you `sudo lshw -C video` (list hardware of class video) what is your video "driver=" listed as? | 12:14 |
| creepancake | driver=i915 | 12:16 |
| guiverc | okay; written by intel so hopefully they know your intel card.. unless wrongly detected it shouldn't be reason for video I suspect... | 12:17 |
| creepancake | I'm not sure of that, it comes with product: Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series PCI Configuration | 12:18 |
| creepancake | looks pretty generic | 12:18 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> Have you tried streaming in vlc? | 12:19 |
| guiverc | one link says "sudo apt-get install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra" for chromium (https://askubuntu.com/questions/1095347/some-videos-have-sound-and-some-have-no-sound-on-ubuntu-18-04); but follow @HMollerCl's direction | 12:19 |
| guiverc | (my last won't impact other browser you mention so unlikely it) | 12:20 |
| creepancake | i'll try, thank you. @HMollerCl I didn't try vlc, honestly I'd like to access directly from browser, the other users in the family may have difficulties with vlc | 12:23 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> Currently there is no hw acceleration in chromium, chrome nor Firefox in linux, but there is in vlc. | 12:24 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> There is an experimental version of chromium with hw acceleration, but it's not stable | 12:25 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> If your CPU relies heavy on gpu for decoding, might be an issue | 12:26 |
| * guiverc : Sorry I've found nothing else useful online | 12:26 | |
| creepancake | @guiverc thanks, installed the codecs in chromium but nothing happened. @HMollerCl i'll try both vlc and the unstable version of chromium, do you have a link for it? | 12:29 |
| lubot | Prathamesh was added by: Prathamesh | 12:30 |
| creepancake | vlc is also laggy and no audio | 12:33 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> Do you have audio on other things? | 12:35 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> Will look experimental chromium | 12:35 |
| creepancake | not anymore, yesterday played music on audacious with no problems | 12:36 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> I've read that chromium snap (instead of apt) has hw acceleration by default | 12:37 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> If you have apt chromium unistall it and install the snap onr | 12:38 |
| * guiverc was thinking same thing (try snap), if it's no better, I'd remove snap & return to deb version (snap will have some overhead, but will ensure latest software is being used) | 12:39 | |
| creepancake | ok i'm trying | 12:40 |
| guiverc | creepancake, there is a snap of firefox, I haven't used it - but it maybe worth trying too (snapped by Mozilla) -- (I've no better ideas) | 12:54 |
