This is immensely useful! Works great here with Ardour2 and XV video.

[linux-audio-user] Website moving - please update your links

by Fons Adriaensen

Hello all, Since I'm preparing to move abroad, I've transferred my website to a host that's independent of my local ISP. The new site is www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio 'Kokkini Zita' means 'red zeta' - the Greek letter, and all the 'i' are pronounced as English 'ee', not 'y'. It's also my 'project name' at the Linux Audio Consortium. In time you will also see the red zeta appear in the GUI of any new software. The main page has been restyled a bit, and the rest will follow as I have time. Please let me know if you have any problems with the new layout and colors. The old site will remain on-line for some months, but any new stuff and updates will go to the new one only. My new e-mail address will be fons-at-kokkinizita.net, but please don't use that until you see it appear on the lists. Enjoy ! -- FA Lascia la spina, cogli la rosa.

[linux-audio-user] [ANN] xjadeo-0.4.0-rc1

by Robin Gareus

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 xjadeo-0.4.0-rc1 - X Jack Video Monitor http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/ Xjadeo is a simple movie player that synchronizes video to an external time source such as jack transport. It is intended to aid sound composition to a video clip. This is a rewrite of the previous 0.1 release and a conclusion of the ongoing development during the last year. New Features include * displays: Xv, x11+imlib2 * fullscreen and letterbox video * improved video file reading via ffmpeg * on screen display * configuration file * LASH - session management * optional GUI - qjadeo * remote control interface * Midi Time Clock quarterframe sync * documentation * OSX support (experimental) Release Notes: Mixing ffmepg and Xv may produce unexpected effects on some architectures. Please report them as those are the main reason for this release-candidate: http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/doc/ar01s03.html#problems Although there are many new Features, only the on-screen-display might have an impact on the perfomance of xjadeo. since 0.3.13 xjadeo uses gettimeofday(3) for it's internal timekeeping. - it appears that using clock(3) was a major-bug in the original xjadeo code, though not harmful. The default xjadeo configuration is to run with a low profile: Additional Features need to be enabled explicitly (LASH is an exception). Performance highly depends on the Codec and geometry of the video file: the -K, -k arguments allow to seek many file formats - but is intended only for preview! http://xjadeo.sourceforge.net/doc/ar01s03.html#video_formats There are open ends in osX support: This version includes workarounds for use with ffmpeg on PPC. , but they might not work for all versions of ffmpeg. - Are you an intel-mac user who succeeded to run 'make test' in the ffmpeg svn src? - give us a wink :) http://packman.links2linux.org/package/xjadeo/ provides SuSE-RPMs for i586 and also for x64-64bit. many thanks! We are pleasantly surprised, since we expected serious video-Codec and xjadeo-Xv problems for 64 bit architecture. We have not tested any of the RPMs ourselves. - imlib display + mjpeg codec should work though. A beta-devel debian package can be built from source and the xjadeo.spec.in is intended for FC4 RPMs. robin /at/ gareus /dot/ org luisgarrido /at/ users /dot/ sourceforge /dot/ net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFb2SXeVUk8U+VK0IRAksdAJ9UzrecVjOOQuwWtCWfmh9EjggflACgga56 yTXu6ToamWx+UmNw+yyl5Dg= =HwID -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

[linux-audio-user] Realtiem kernel.

by J M Needham

I found http://repos.opensuse.org/home:/appleonkel/SUSE_Linux_10.1/i586/kernel-rt-d… on the internet while looking for info on how to patch a realtime kernel in suse 10.1. I'm having some problems with it (it didn't boot; I used rpm -i ... to install it) and so if anyone has any experience with this or advice for SUSE 10.1 (I'm leaving suse soon anyway -- heading to DeMuDi) then I'd appreciate. I understand that patching a kernel for suse 10.1 with a realtime patch is non-trivial. Any help appreciated. Jonty

[linux-audio-user] Fst + Crystal VST

by yves＠jazzcomputer.org

Hello. There seems to be a persistant issue with Crystal VST and Fst. First, this appears at the launch of fst (with or without -r, with or without wineserver running) : cannot lock down memory for RT thread (Ne peut allouer de la memoire) The synth first seems to work perfectly, with audio and MIDI in jack. Then it quickly segfaults when using the GUI or just when playing some notes on vkeybd, at a moment or another, with this error message : The program 'fst' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'RenderBadPicture (invalid Picture parameter)'. (Details: serial 24972 error_code 191 request_code 156 minor_code 7) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) ² I have recompiled wine with or without gif, glut, opengl, gif, lcms, dbus and hal, and I have tried with or with DRI activated in xorg (free driver, ATI video card, dual monitor setup). Always the same. There is a recent bug report on the wine bugtracker here : http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6673 and someone asked the same question sometime ago on this mailing list. But on the other hand there are many web sites where people report that this synth works perfectly with wine / fst. - Would someone have some kind of workaround ? - Would there be someone who uses Crstal vst sucessfully and could tell about his setup, especially his video card and drivers, xorg / xfree version, if he uses dual monitors and if DRI is activated ? - Did someone contact the author of Crystal to ask him about a native Linux version and / or a free version of his software's source code ? I could do it, but maybe there's a history about that I'm not aware of... Thanks for any advice or help, Y.

Re: [linux-audio-user] Making audio CDs - a simple way

Quoting lanas <lanas(a)securenet.net>: > I guess you could call me too lazy to bother with the installation of > a total of 6 packages just to be able to drag&drop files to be > burned on CD ! ;-) And I think I am, too. Come on, package dependencies is no meter for ease of use. "apt-get install serpentine" will install the application. And even that isn't necessary as it is installed by default for any sane distro (for example Ubuntu). Sampo
