[17:42] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: two perhaps useful packages to add: gphoto2 v4l2loopback-utils v4l2loopback-dkms
[17:42] <OvenWerks> the last two one is the dep of the other.
[17:42] <OvenWerks> Reason for adding? -> https://medium.com/nerdery/dslr-webcam-setup-for-linux-9b6d1b79ae22
[17:42] <OvenWerks> better use of OBS
[17:46] <OvenWerks> Having said that, I could not get it to work yet. Adding the kernel module (v4l2loopback-dkms) does make my camera show up but the loopback command doesn't work for me (using VLC or cheese or OBS)
[17:59] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: I'll add it to my list. :)
[18:00] <OvenWerks> I can add my dslr to OBS using gphoto2 --stdout --capture-movie | ffplay - 
[18:01] <OvenWerks> which creates a window and then using that window in OSB rather than the v4l loopback
[18:02] <Eickmeyer[m]> Yeah, totally. That's something that game streamers want, and something that is 100% part of my vision for this project.
[18:03] <OvenWerks> the v4l loopback would be nicer though. I will work on that... at some time
[18:04] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Yeah, gphoto2 is easy since it's already in the archive.
[18:04] <OvenWerks> v4l loopback is too
[18:05] <Eickmeyer[m]> Yeah, it all is. Are we looking to make a frontend for this?
[18:05]  * OvenWerks has to get it all to work first
[18:06] <Eickmeyer[m]> Ok, bet. If we can make a front-end that makes this braindead simple ala studio-controls, I'm all for it.
[18:07] <Eickmeyer[m]> In fact, I'm in love with this idea.
[18:08] <MauroGaspari[m]> Eickmeyer: remember the libvirt bug I told you about? virsh/virt-manager complaining that storage is not btrfs, refusing to mount storagte. It is fixed already 😍
[18:08] <OvenWerks> It would be easy to add the load module at boot button (similar to the use ffado maodules
[18:08] <Eickmeyer[m]> Mauro Gaspari: Gotta love it when bugfixes do their job. :)
[18:09] <MauroGaspari[m]> well, it is in proposed. but I just tested it and it works nicely now. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-manager/+bug/1901242
[18:09] <Eickmeyer[m]> Yep, an SRU. I just finished an SRU for darktable this morning. I've gotten quite used to writing those. :)
[18:09] <OvenWerks> The module does not interfere with the use of entangle either
[18:09] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Yeah, since we already have the framework and have been there before, I'd say this would be a great target for this cycle.
[18:10] <OvenWerks> I will add it to my list...
[18:12] <MauroGaspari[m]> OvenWerks: you asked to test if autojack/studio controls crash in 20.10. I managed to get it to crash a few times. I was trying to break network-manager by starting VPNs with wrong settings, cancelling connection while it attempted to connect. that triggered a crash of my panel (probably nm-applet) and then the panel restarted. when that happened, studio controls (autojack) crashed too.
[18:12] <MauroGaspari[m]> Do you want me to attempt recreate and save logs?
[18:13] <OvenWerks> sure
[18:14] <OvenWerks> best with log level set to extra of course
[18:14] <MauroGaspari[m]> outside of that crazy test I did, it is rock solid. I will try to break it again and keep an eye on it. actually let me fire up Timeshift before I do that 😅
[18:16] <MauroGaspari[m]> OvenWerks: I will check that tomorrow. I just realized it is 2AM here wooopsss. see you guys later 😴
[18:16] <OvenWerks> o/
[18:17] <Eickmeyer[m]> SLEEP Mauro Gaspari , it's for your own good!
[18:18] <RikMills> I expect you all noticed, but Qt 5.15 is here and plasma 5.20 is landing...
[18:18]  * OvenWerks wonders if that is release or git (-controls that is)
[18:19] <RikMills> and some kde applications updates
[18:19] <OvenWerks> RikMills: cool.
[18:20] <Eickmeyer[m]> RikMills: Cool.
[18:20] <RikMills> s/cool/kool
[18:21]  * Eickmeyer[m] really needs to get a hirsute environment going other than his packaging server
[21:02] <RikMills> Eickmeyer[m]: do you have kde 'user-manager' package in your seeds? if so, when new plasma desktop migrates it will obsolete it, as the KCM has been reworked and merged into that
[21:03] <Eickmeyer[m]> RikMills: I'll double-check, but I'm pretty sure we do. If that's the case, will it just go transitional-dummy, or should I remove it from the seed?
[21:04] <Eickmeyer[m]> (Just confirmed, we do carry it)
[21:04] <RikMills> Eickmeyer[m]: I woiuld remove from seed either way, but I am waiting to see what debian do regards a transitional package before I add one
[21:04] <Eickmeyer[m]> RikMills: Works for me. :)
[21:05] <RikMills> kool
[21:05] <Eickmeyer[m]> It's a recommends, so it'll just get dropped from the metas as soon as I do a refresh.
[21:05] <RikMills> great
[21:07] <RikMills> Eickmeyer[m]: note: because of same files, plasma-desktop has to break/replace it, so if people ask if that is ok to allow it to be removed, then obviously the answer is yes
[21:08] <Eickmeyer[m]> Makes sense. I doubt we'll have too many people upset about it this early in the cycle, so I think we're good to go.
[21:08] <RikMills> yeah, I just mention to cover all bases
[21:08] <Eickmeyer[m]> CYA. Got it. :)
[21:08] <RikMills> :)
[22:04] <OvenWerks> it appears v4l2loopback is broken in 20.04
[22:05] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: see: https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback/issues/370#issuecomment-723181424 and https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback/issues/370#issuecomment-723228590
[22:05] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: I can confirm that installing the 20.10 package just works
[22:06] <OvenWerks> (in 20.04 using dpkg i as suggested)
[22:06] <OvenWerks> As 20.04 is LTS it would make sense to fix this maybe?
[22:51] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: also, while talking adding packages  ;)  there is an OBS module that would be nice to add.
[22:56] <OvenWerks> https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-v4l2sink
[22:57] <OvenWerks> This OBS module allows the output of OBS to show up on linux as a video device (like another camera)
[22:58] <OvenWerks> This means that obs could be used as the camera in online conferencing tools like zoom, hangouts, skype, etc.
[23:01]  * OvenWerks now has two Camaera batteries to install
[23:17] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: Bug #1903926
[23:19] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: That's brilliant, but that bug...
[23:19] <Eickmeyer[m]> We might be able to SRU that.
[23:20] <Eickmeyer[m]> I mean, so long as the diff isn't gigantic.
[23:27] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Looks like there's an SRU for it now: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/v4l2loopback/+bug/1901491
[23:29] <Eickmeyer[m]> OvenWerks: Would that do the trick?
