Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] wily werewolf audacity alsa sound distorted

2016-03-30 Thread lukefromdc
Audacity can set up its own audio device using in Preferences>Devices and will
default to using Pulseaudio. On some setups Pulseaudio still has issues for 
Audacity.  To actually be using ALSA directly you have to set it up in 
Preferences.

First, make sure that nothing else is using sound, so Pulseaudio won't hold an 
exclusive lock on the soundcard. Then in  Preferences>Devices you have "host"
which will be ALSA but also "playback" and "recording". It is those two that 
need
to be set to use the soundcard directly, usually that is the line ending in
(hw: 0,0) . If you only see (hw:0,1) and higher and you cannot get sound from 
them,
somthing else is playing sound and holding the sound card. There is a 
PAsuspender
program available somewhere that can shut Pulseaudio down temporarily for 
situations like this, but usually it's enough to shut off system sounds in 
overall
sound configuration and make sure nothing else is playing.

[ubuntu-studio-devel] wily werewolf audacity alsa sound distorted

Greetings all

For a while for me audacity would just crash in Wily when I use ALSA. When
I use Jack it worked like a charm.
After the last update at least it don't crash but the sound distorts
sometimes. Is anyone else get that?

Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] TV cards

2016-03-30 Thread Grant Frank Burton
Ok the only thing that works is the video inputs in TvTime, not the TV.
and the only way that works is with

options saa7134 card=2, tuner=43

in the saa7134.conf file.

The video4linux control panel opens but there is no way to change from TV
to S-Video so there  is no preview.

Something new.

the video sound inputs appear in all the mixers but... they don't work
at least they appear.

You Guys fix a bunch of other problems so great Job and thanks a lot!!

I got it there still must be a  saa7134.conf file but change the lines
to:


options saa7134 card=2,2,2,2 tuner=43,43,43,43 video_nr=1,2,3,4
vbi_nr=1,2,3,4 radio_nr=1,2,3,4

delete all the other lines

 I spent six hours trying to figure out what's wrong with the TV card
 and the answer was really simple.
 Because this system is more like Debian, I just had to configure it
 like a Debian.

 Just open a terminal and do this…….


 sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/saa7134.conf

 (put these lines in the file and save)

 options saa7134 card=2,2,2,2 tuner=43,43,43,43 video_nr=1,2,3,4
 vbi_nr=1,2,3,4 radio_nr=1,2,3,4
 install saa7134 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install saa7134; /sbin/modprobe
 saa7134-alsa
 options saa7134-alsa index=1,2,3,4

 That's it

 Daaa

 Kinda feel like a fool


 It's always nice to find the solution though!

Re: [ubuntu-studio-devel] TV cards

2016-03-30 Thread Grant Frank Burton
Greetings all

the last update disabled my tv card and the tvtime couldn't find the card.

Before the update I could use tvtime, and connect to S-Video, but the
video4linux control panel and Kdenlive it did not work.

so I deleted the saa7134.conf

Now. TvTime detects the card but I can't configure it. Video4linux
control panel opens now but to a  black screen. Also Kdenlive detects  but
to a  black screen.

Any suggestions? maybe a  new saa7143.conf?
