Hi all.
Next meeting at c-base is on Tuesday 2018-11-06 at 20:00.
To avoid cross-posting too much on the mailing lists I'd like the
follow-up discussion to happen in the thread to the invitation mail I
sent to the linux-audio-user list.

Hello list,
I recently tried out petri-foo and I like it enough to care about it in
the form of bug reports.
I don't know how to contact the developers though.
The website http://petri-foo.sourceforge.net/ says last release 2012,
the github repository is switched to read-only.
Did I miss the active development place somehow? Fork of a fork?

Hi list, I'm working on version 2 of MusE's safe plugin
scanner which now creates cached text lists of all plugins
found on the system, seven formats: ladspa, dssi, dssi-vst,
LinuxVst, vst, lv2, and our own MESS).
Currently each cache file is a custom xml template describing all
the various features of each plugin found, in one common format.
For six of the formats listed above it went smoothly but when
I made the LV2 section I kept thinking - I'm re-inventing the wheel.
LV2 already uses Turtle text description files, so it was a bit odd
making a converter from/to my xml format to/from lilv ttl scans.
Question: Can rdf, or ladspa rdf, or Turtle files be used to
generally specify ANY type of plugin, so that the various
tools and libraries associated with rdf, lrdf, or ttl or lv2
can read them in a common way?
This would also allow me to introduce lrdf (or something rdf-based)
into MusE and really take advantage of features like enumerated
value strings and so on.
It'd be great if some rdf tool or library function could scan all
my existing ladspa and dssi (and other) plugins for me and present
me with an rdf file so I don't have to do all the work.
Even if the file might lack the ability to fill in those ladspa
enumeration value strings when scanning an unidentifiable plugin.
Thanks.
Tim.

Hi
I'm working on port my GTK based LV2 UI's to plain X11 cairo UI's.
So far I've anything in shape now. The last remaining issue I've is UI
resizing in Qtractor.
It seems that the Qtractor parent UI ain't forward the ConfigureNotify
to the embedded window.
So, when the parent window is resized by the user, the embedded window
ain't get notified, so it can't resize itself to fit the parent window
size.
Anyone else noticed that behavior, or, is it a known behavior, or, do I
do something wrong?
Resizing works in Carla, Ardour and jalv.

Hi Phil and list,
The object is to end up with a very functional 'compilation compiler'.
I have hundreds of old recordings of music radio and I use audiotag to
find regions within those .wav files. The version 0.7 I have outputs
region information on std-out like:
REGION "/path/Wed0301.wav" 01:37:31.35310 01:41:27.19055 (saved 2018 09 30 T 13 18 08)
I know that Qt can start non gui programs and absorb the outputs from
them, so each time I click add, a new entry would be made in a database
(SQlite preferably) and I'd be able to manually add Artist, Title, Label
and some notes. Maybe genre and a numeric, or star scoring option as well.
The regions are playable with 'dump' (which is part of 0.7, but isn't
included in 0.6) either individually or as a sequence. It's input is
a plain text file of one or more of those REGION lines.
With very many regions added to the database, I'd want to be able to
audition any one of them and add it to a new list/compilation, or maybe
edit old ones with newer tunes, or simply play a favourite compilation.
Previous / Repeat / Next buttons would be good.
Additionally, I'd like to be able to save the regions as new individual
.wav etc. files, or as one new large one of the whole compilation, but
it isn't the main requirement as I can record while playing (I've read).
Also, larger text for Head PlayHead and Tail positions in audiotag would
help me see what I'm doing.
Thanks. I may not have explained it well, so please ask if anything is
still not clear.
John.
