[newbie] Port Audio SDK on MDK 10.0
hi, I've tried to installed portaudio SDK (NOT RPM) on MDK 10.0 (IBM ThinkPad T41), after compiling the source for unix, it genenrates a ./patest. when I run ./patest, it supposed to be testing a sine wave but I didn't get any sound and get an error number : -1, error message: Host error. Anyone have experience on that? Cheers, slimboyfatboyslim http://www.slimboyfatboyslim.org Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

You probably didn't figure I was quite THIS confused ! :) Gideon urpmf libfaad will list all packages containing files with that string in them. As you see that are four different packages. libfaad2_0-static-devel, libfaad2_0, libfaad2_0-devel and vlc-plugin-faad libfaad2_0 is the actual library. We know this because it contains the file libfaad.so.0 The 'so' means 'shared object' i.e. a library. You need this installed to use any application involving libfaad. The two 'devel' packages contain the header files of the libfaad library and are necessary if you want to compile any application that requires libfaad. The 'static' devel package is used when you want to integrate libfaad inside the application you are compiling so it is not necessary to separately install the libfaad package. This is known as 'static' linking. The other 'devel' package is used to compile dynamically linked applications where the libfaad package has to be separately installed. Dynamic linked applications are smaller in size than static ones because they do not need to contain all the dependency libraries. When compiling apps we normally use dynamic linking, so in order to compile your application install just libfaad2_0-devel. You will also need to install libfaad2_0 in order to actually run your application. The last package vlc-plugin-faad contains a library to use faad with the Vlc media player (available from plf) The fact that urpmq lists these packages at all means that your plf source is correctly set up. You can install them either using the software install GUI or from the command line (as root) urpmi libfaad2_0-devel libfaad2_0 If the install fails, then it may be your database for plf is out of date. Refresh it with urpmi.update plf If you want to try out the Vlc player (which supports aac), then :- urpmi vlc vlc-plugin-alsa vlc-plugin-faad kvlc derek Great, Thanks for the clear explanations. I appreciate the primer. The fact that urpmq lists these packages at all means that your plf source is correctly set up. Doesn't it show that those files are already installed on my HD? I did do a refresh of urpmi. and Installed the Vlc player, which is working fine. I tried installing faad from the command line: [EMAIL PROTECTED] g]# urpmi libfaad2_0-devel libfaad2_0 Everything already installed Yet when I ./configure I still get: ... checking for main in -lfaad... no configure: error: *** FAAD library (libfaad) not installed - please install first *** [EMAIL PROTECTED] aacplugin-1.1.4]# Now when I do the ./configure I am ussing the same folder that I tar(ed) before installing a bunch of these packages. Thats fine, right? Its the ./configure command which is rechecking my system to see if i have everything needed, and STILL NOT FINDING FAAD ! In addition, neither libfaad2_0-devel or libfaad2_0 finds anything when searching from rpmdrake. I tried each of the three search methods, by name, file name, and descritpion. Is it not finding anything because I already have them installed? Gideon Want to buy your Pack or Services from

For that, I $799? Outrageous. Robin, here's what I do. I use xmms with the dikwriter plugin and cdrecord. open up xmms, select the tracks to burn. This is pretty simple if they are all in one convenient place. Otherwise you can use gcombust and do drag drop from a file management tool like konqueror. Make a subdirectory to hold the wavs - usually I put them under /tmp. Next open up the Visualization window, select Audio I/O plugins, select Diskwriter. This opens up a subwindow, enter in the directory you created. After you've added all the files, press play, and in a few minutes (here's where diskwriter shines, it's fast) you'll have a number of wav's in that directory. Next open up a command line and $ cdrecord -dev=ATA:1,0,0 -v -eject -speed 12 -audio pad list of files Most of the time, after entering that I just type the first few letters of each track, and hit tab. I have to do that repeatedly for each track, but what the hell, it works :). Otherwise, you can use gcombust, or any other cd writing tool. But from the tenor of your email it would seem you're stuck on the mp3-wav conversion. Sir Robin -- David E.

It supposedly does - you can burn the mp3s and convert them at the same time. But I have found this doesn't always work well in practice. I've managed to coaster several CDs when trying this approach in the past, and I've used several front ends when doing so. I've found that it does not work well to do this especially if your mp3 sources are not 44.1K/stereo files. A bunch of my OTR is not, and the various front ends do not pay attention to this, and it results in coasters featuring chipmunk soounds. Also, from my experience, they do not support VBR encoding well at all. Having your front end segfault in the middle of a burn is not encouraging, to say the least. So far, I've found xmms-diskwriter / cdrecord the best way to do this. Sir Robin -- David E.

1. Put MP3z in dir.
2. Open a term in dir.
3. for i in *.mp3; do mv $i `echo $i | tr ' ' '_'`;done;
4. for i in *.mp3; do lame --decode $i `basename $i .mp3`.wav; done;
5. normalize -m *
6. Fire up GCombust, drag WAV files to Audio Files tab, order how you want,
burn.
Tip:
in .bashrc add these lines:
# mp3 functions
function mp3dec() { for i in *.mp3; do lame --decode $i `basename $i .mp3`.wav;
done; }
function mp3ren() { for i in *.mp3; do mv $i `echo $i | tr ' '
'_'`;done; }
Mind the line wrap, of course.
Then lines 3 and 4 are just mp3ren, then mp3dec.
Thanks, this was the kind of thing I was looking for.

Thanks, mike Well that depends on the mime type of the links you are trying to view/listen to. You must install an application/plugin for that mime type. A good place to start is to install mplayer (and mplayer-gui both in PLF) and its plugin (mplayerplugin RPM is in Contrib) Mplayer will handle most audio/video types including Windows media and Quicktime. You can also install RealPlayer RPM available from Texstar. If after installing these you still cannot view the content come back and tell us what the mime types are. Note: Contrib, PLF and Texstar are online software repositories. You can configure your Mandrake Software installer to search them and download/install packages for you if you go here http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/index.php and follow the instructions for adding them as 'urpmi' sources. derek Thanks derek, From PLF site, I used Easy urpmi to Identify and load the sources you mentioned above. First I tried mplayer. It installed OK, but it would not play the video. Then I found out that the file type I was downloading is .ram which has a mime type of realaudio. So, I installed RealPlayer and all works well. Urpmi is a pretty slick tool, especially since it knows what dependencies are needed.

How do you know what aps need updating? mike Glad it all worked. To go to 9.2 there are 3 different routes you could take. 1/ Do a fresh install, but do not format your /home partition. That is the easiest and lowest risk path. Afterwards declare new urpmi sources for 9.2 and reinstall any apps you downloaded from plf etc. Your user data in /home will still be there, and so will your application configs 2/ Do an 'upgrade' from CD. This will just upgrade any packages which are different between the 2 releases. This is quicker than a full install, but may require you to go about tweaking your system afterwards. For example you will need to redefine your urpmi sources again, and you will probably find some menu items like the kde konsole are missing. This is because 9.2 splits applications between packages differently. 3/ Do an online update - I have done this 3 times now, but since if it goes wrong you end up with a dead computer, I had better not describe it :-) derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net Get urpmi sources from http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/urpmiweb.php Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

If you are willing to sacrifice quality, I suppose you could record to .wav at a higher than normal speed (you'll need to find a cassette deck with a high speed dupe function) and later stretch out the .wav's time scale, but methinks that you'll sacrifice a lot of quality to save a little time. -- Warren Post Santa Rosa de Copán, Honduras http://srcopan.vze.com/ -- Warren Post Santa Rosa de Copán, Honduras http://srcopan.vze.com/ Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I don't find any helpful guidelines as to what gives the best sound quality in the end. recording and burning as .WAV gives you: loss-less recording CDs you can play on any CD player recording as .MP3 gives you: smaller files, so fewer CDs required recording with good quality should be able to match the tape quality. you can only play the CDs on the computer or MP3-aware players. recording as .WAV and burning as .MP3 gives you the worst of both, but you may have more control over the MP3 quality. I would record as .WAV and then burn as an audio CD, one disc per tape, or per tape side. And is there a faster way to do the process than just play the tape and record? no Also be sure you mute system sounds, or they might appear on the recording. Thanks for the advice. This is a new adventure and I am finding that not only are some of my tapes wearing out but old stereo equipment is getting a bit old and cranky too. So this transfer may be just in time. It is going to take a couple of weeks of off and on work. Your advice is appreciated. -- Dennis M. linux user #180842 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Recording Audio from Cassettes
As the subject implies, I am recording my old cassette tapes to make CDs. Some of them are nearing 22 years old and I don't want to lose them.

Now the question is, what's the best way to do this, do the record as a .wav and then burn as mp3s or record as mp3s and burn CDs as mp3s?

Ulp, la madracchia ha fatto tutto da sola, e funziona benone; solo vorrei sapere cosa usa, per recuperare i moduli e sfruttarli nella slack... Ehm, son stato un po' impreciso qui, quella frase va intesa in questo modo: AFAIR dovrebbero essere fisicamente all'interno di una directory separata nei sorgenti del kernel, nel senso che sotto /usr/src/linux* 'dovrebbe' esserci appunto una directory chiamata alsa-*, ma questa in via predefinita _non_ viene utilizzata dai pacchettizzatori MDK per i moduli precompilati del kernel, e' messa a disposizione per comodita' di chi desideri utilizzare questi driver alternativi. I moduli OSS (e quindi nel tuo caso, credo, sb e awe_wave, dovresti verificare con lsmod) pero' sono incompatibili con gli ALSA, nel senso che non possono essere caricati entrambi allo stesso tempo, pena l'apparire del famoso errore di device occupato. Pensavo fosse qualcosa di aggiunto da snd, che e' il programmone che uso per gestire gli audio. comunque ho controllato, in mezzo ai vari snd* quello che mi dici tu non c'e'. Ergo... dici sndconfig? quello serve a rilevare la presenza della scheda ed a caricare il modulo OSS necessario (non funziona per gli ALSA). Fino alla prossima serie stabile del kernel (per intenderci la futura 2.6.x) gli ALSA andranno compilati a manina e separatamente rispetto al kernel, con gli appositi comandi; dopo prenderanno sicuramente il posto dei vecchi OSS. -- GNU/Linux Slackware 9.0beta1 ** k 2.4.20-acpi+preempt LU #210970 LM #98222 SU #12583 E chi ha detto che gli spammer non possano essere bruciati vivi? ; Two wrongs don't make a right, but two Wrights did make an airplane.

Quality seems very acceptable, although I think I will have to compress to mp3 format as even these .wav files are still rather large. regards magnet On Tuesday 10 Dec 2002 4:22 am, Bryan Tyson wrote: On Monday 09 December 2002 19:49, magnet wrote: Can you recommend a utility that will allow me to record the input from a cassette player into the input plug on my soundcard?

But if you want to convert mp3's, ogg's or cdaudio to wav, then record an audio cd, you can use xmms-diskwriter plugin to write the wav's, then use cdrecord for the burning. Assuming all the wav's you want to record are in the same directory (and you're in it): cdrecord -v -pad speed=1 dev=1,0,0 -dao -audio -swab *.wav Modify dev= to suit your system.

I used the RPM from texstar, and it wanted one file called libxft.so.2. I found that on RPMFIND, installed it (RedHat RPM), then installed the tex release of k3b. Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction. I'd like your personal opinion on this: do you think it matters in any way who made the RPMs, whether it's Mandrake, RH or tex. In other words is there any point to searching endlessly for an RPM from Mandrake or is it just as well to mix and match? Thanks, Jon Jon Yes it does matter who builds your RPMS. RPMS can be built well, and they can be built badly. Texstar builds good RPMs. He builds them against a standard 9.0 distribution. No cooker packages, and no third party packages. So you can be fairly confident they will work. HOWEVER, sometimes his RPMs do depend on other RPMs of his own, and that is what you have just experienced. He has built k3b with libxft2 as a dependency. What you have done is found a RedHat version of libxft2 which is NOT built against a Mandrake 9.0 distro. So you may have introduced font problems by doing so. What I recommend you do is remove RedHats libxft2 and replace it with Texstars. Tex's libxft2 is part of a series of packages Tex has built to dramatically improve the fonts in Mandrake 9.0. Others packages affected are fontconfig , freetype2, and libqt3. (as described here: http://www.jennings.homelinux.net/Xft-2.html ) I suggest you add Texstar as a urpmi source and then everything gets sorted out automatically. In a root terminal (all on one line) urpmi.addmedia texstar ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/contrib/texstar/linux/distributions/mandrake/9.0/rpms with ./hdlist.cz Mandrake Software Manager will then find Texstar packages as well as Mandrake ones.

There are lots of phrases. My favorite is `nitwit' -- and the rationale is the Internet philosophy has always been you have extremely bright, non-partisan researchers look at a topic, do world-class research, do several competing implementations, have a bake-off, determine what works best, write it down and make that the standard. The OSI view is entirely opposite. You take written contributions from a much larger community, you put the contributions in a room of committee people with, quite honestly, vast political differences and all with their own political axes to grind, and four years later you get something out, usually without it ever having been implemented once. So the Internet perspective is implement it, make it work well, then write it down, whereas the OSI perspective is to agree on it, write it down, circulate it a lot and now we'll see if anyone can implement it after it's an international standard and every vendor in the world is committed to it. One of those processes is backwards, and I don't think it takes a Lucasian professor of physics at Oxford to figure out which. -- Marshall Rose, The Pied Piper of OSI Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
