General :: Program To Visualize Anything That Goes Through My Audio-output?
Jun 1, 2011
I'm looking for a program that will visualize anything that goes through my audio-output (in this case it's Spotify) and display it on the screen. Does this exist?
Say I have 2 speakers connected to 2 different sound cards. Under Windows, is it possible to have some sort of virtual device that would forward an audio stream to both sound cards? If this can't be easily done under Windows, a solution for Linux is also fine. lternatively, if the 2 speakers are connected to different channels of a sound card, is there any vendor-independent way to duplicate audio to both channels?
Running 10.10 and win 7 on my HP dv6-2150us laptop and I'm having a few issues.
First how do I get HDMI audio output to my TV? I think I have just a integrated Intel graphics card. It works fine in windows but I can't seem to get it to work in Ubuntu. I tried searching but couldn't find anything pertaining to this issue.
I don't know anything about ubuntu. Could you guys help me out. I'm pretty knowledgeable with windows if you guys need a printout of something let me know. My friends getting really frustrated about this. Help!!i
So here's the situation. He plugs his audio jack into his computer and then into the speakers but it still plays from the computer speakers.
I finally got audio working on my ubuntu 9.10 desktop... now I am having sound issues watching movies from a network share.The sound device continually randomly changes to "dummy output device" and then there is no sound output. The sound icon dissapears on the toolbar. To get it back and audio to start working I have to $sudo alsa force-reloadIt seems to happen everytime there is a network delay, the movie will stop for a second and then when it plays the sound is gone
I just got rid of pulseaudio because it breaks in so many different situations. I've switched to Alsa, and all of my sound is working except in mpd. It seems like I have to set audio_output in /etc/mpd.conf. Here is my config file:
audio_output { type "alsa" driver "pcm" name "whatever" }
When I start mpd, this is what happens: $ sudo mpd --no-daemon --stdout --verbose playlist: play 1:"Party Playlist/01 Block Rockin' Beats.mp3" decoder: audio_format=44100:24:2, seekable=true alsa: default period_time = buffer_time/4 = 371519/4 = 92879 alsa: buffer_size=16384 period_size=4096 output: opened plugin=alsa name="My MPD Alsa Output" audio_format=44100:24:2 playlist: queue song 2:"Party Playlist/01 Umbrella [Feat. Jay-Z].mp3" output: closed plugin=alsa name="My MPD Alsa Output" ^Clisten: listen_global_finish called db_finish took 0.000000 seconds
And I hear the song play for less than a second before the audio_output driver is closed. There really aren't any error messages printed explaining why it's not working. I've also tried "oss", "esd" and "ao" for the audio_output type, and none of them work.
I have two machines on a local area network (xp box and xubuntu box) and I want audio from both machines to be played from the same set of speakers. The problem is, the xubuntu machine doesn't have any sound output. There is no onboard sound card and all expansion slots are pci-x, so short of buying a pci-x sound card my only option for playing sound is to route audio through LAN to my xp computer.
I already have a program that will let me play music on one computer from another's speakers, but I am trying to set up a stream so that games and internet sound can be heard. Is it possible for me to do this?
I'm looking into building a media server that will output to 2 channels. I'd like to use Ubuntu however, if there's a better alternative, I'd be open to using it. I'd have 2 audio and video cards for output and what I'm interested in knowing is if there's a way to set the audio output to a specific card per application or workspace. Is there an easy way of doing this?
Has anyone come across a means to output rss feeds to audio? A Google search led me on a "wild goose chase". I was looking for a newsbeuter or snownews plugin of sorts. Either realtime output to speakers or piped to speex/ogg/mp3 I *really* need to learn how to code, so I can do these things myself
while doing socket/network programming, i am getting SSH-2.0-openssh4.7 error, instead of showing day time of server.general description i have Linux Box, with the help of putty i am connecting from windows system to Linux box,no problem in loging,after typing program, i am running the program with gcc. when typing ./a.out, it is showing SSH-2.0-openssh4.7, actually it should display daytime from linux box in both tcp and udp.
The default output audio port Ubuntu doesn't work on my system. It should be "Analog Mono Output/Amplifier", instead of "Analog Output/Amplifier". I can easily change that in sound preferences, just by choosing the right port in the "Output" tab. The problem is this would only apply to a single account, and I would like to change it system-wide, so it applies to all accounts on the system (I have more than 100 users...).
Update: I can achieve the same effect as I would by changing it in sound preferences using the following command: pacmd 'set-sink-port' 'alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.5.analog-stereo analog-output-mono;output-amplifier-on' Unfortunately that's still not system-wide,
I'm using Ubuntu and I'm programing with eclipse CDT. My goal is to execute a php file and read the output to my c++ program. To do so I thought I should use fork(), dup2() and execl. When in shell, the call "php myscript.php" worked just fine, but when in c++ I tried: execl("usr/bin/php", "php", "home/geiger/workspace/SemiServer/server_content/myscript.php", NULL); And it didn't work (the process wasn't terminated and I got no output). I tried different version of this call, like losing the "php" string and/or drop "home/geiger" from the path string, to no better result.
I finally decided to transition to a 64-bit install (AMD64). (same machine, just reinstalling as a 64-bit kernel starting w/ a Debian squeeze netinstall image) My audio chipset is nvidia MCP61, and it was working perfectly under a 32-bit kernel (I did the transition because a poorly-written system backup script (my fault) hosed /usr, /bin, and /sbin) When everything was up and running:
*: KDE4 only recognized the output device as ALC1200 Analog *: kmix only had a single channel(master) *: alsamixergui did recognize all the channels *: some games (sauerbraten, for example) had no sound in KDE4. *: some games (warzone2100, for example) did have sound in KDE4. *: the games that had no sound in KDE4 did have sound in fluxbox.
I removed the following packages (some of which I had installed to try to get audio working properly):
I have a program that writes to stdout. Is there a way that I can redirect the output to the linux diff command or do I have to write the output to a file and then compare that. For example I have a bunch of test input files for a program and the corresponding expected output in another set of files. And I'd like to do something like ./program < t1.input | diff t1.expected.
I have a number of uncompressed audio files recorded off of an analog (POTS) telephone line of fax transmissions. Is there a Linux utility or library I could use to convert these files into images of the fax they contain? I'm not looking to send/receive a fax via a modem, but just to "replay" the communications tones and parse out the fax message.I'm guessing this may not be possible due to duplex issues and not knowing which end of the conversation is sending what,but thought I'd ask to see if anyone knew of something.
Is there already a program that reads multiple pipes or file descriptors and writes to the standard output (not splitting lines).Like cat, but reading all files simultaneously and preserving lines.It is needed to avoid coding of select/epoll loops or using multithreading in simple programs. Like "select loop for bash".
i have need to convert and to visualize iges and dxf files. I have found gcad3d program but it work only with gtk version 2. On Centos 5.x is installed the gtk 1.2.10 and gcad3d don't work. Other programs that run on centos for this purpose?
I have a "stable" core 10 server that is hosting multiple visualizations: Setup details The host is on a dedicated non raid drive. The virtualization for each system was created in one of two ways... mainly because I was learning when I set this up a year ago. The first way was that I created the filesystem as a .img on the boot drive then I added access to a raid5 array as an additional mount point in the booted .img file. This has worked fine for a year. The second way was introduced when I added a raid1 array for additional "testing" systems. I partitioned the raid1 like this:
[code]...
I then proceeded to add /dev/md1 as a mount point to the original .img for additional storage works fine. I then created a new system using /dev/md2 this is where things change up as I installed Core12 system directly onto the /dev/md2.....
This started today in my session: no audio output. In sound preferences, hardware, in Profile, the options are now Off and Analog mono input. In Output tab, I see Dummy output stereo as the device. Nothing is muted.
I have a problem with the audio output in Fedora 15. It seems 'dirty' to me, like with a lot of distortion. I use for the output a nice USB DAC that seems to run very good with Ubuntu and Windows, strangely with Fedora isn't the same. I say strangely because the sound pipeline must be very similar to that of Ubuntu, no? Kernel, ALSA, Pulseaudio and so on. How could I improve mine audio output? Tried with Flash videos and Audacious audio player. Lowering audio output (like to 50%) greatly improve audio quality! Why is permitted to the system to go over and distort?
So I have a DAC/Headphone Amplifier which plugs in through USB. Through the system settings I'm able to set it as the preferred audio output option. This makes all the windows manager sounds come through the headphones, but all the applications still come through the laptop speakers; i guess they are completely independent of the system settings. I have to set each application's output preferences separately, and some software (like Firefox) doesn't have any output preferences. So is there a way toirect the audio output of all applications to all come through the USB DAC
I have a StarTech USB audio adapter which I have been unable to get output from in Suse. Pavucontrol allows me to adjust the output to this device, and even shows some signal when playing media. However, no output makes it to the headset/speaker jack of the USB device. There does not appear to be any issues with playing media to the internal sound card & speakers of the computer. I booted up a Live Ubuntu disk, the device was recognized, and output made it with no problem. This leads me to discount a hardware problem. I'm running Suse 11.4 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T420s.
I installed Kubuntu 9.10 one week earlier and installed VLC player in it. But from that day VLC player is playing the video but not the audio. Also Banshee player is not playing any audio in Kubuntu.
Have you ever wanted to record a sound heard from your computer or website? If yes outRec is perfect for you. This simple but powerful application let you to record your sound card audio output easily in a few steps and save it in different kinds of formats like wav, mp3 or ogg.

To get it work you need to install the dependencies with:
My audio setup is based on a single guitar amplifier, and from this I suffer from only being able to listen to one of the two stereo channels. Since I honestly don't care for stereo, I'd rather force Ubuntu to output all audio as mono instead of "upgrading" to a stereo compatible setup.Is there a way to do this?
I have this file:Code:vid-gd-19940626-peggy.rmI would like to extract the audio and copy to a file to burn on a CD.'pitivi' will load the file and show the audio timeline. But I can not find a save or copy button.'vlc' will play the file but I can not find how to seperate/save the audio.I found a 'ffmpeg' that is suppose to read whatever is being sent to your speakers.Code:ffmpeg -f oss -i /dev/dsp -f video4linux2 out.wavThis produce a file that 'mplayer', 'vlc', 'audacity' will load but it is empty of useful data. Black screen only.This is the second week I have worked on this. Either I'm googling for the wrong words or what I'm reading, I don't understand.
I have just gotten unbuntu install and was force to learn cuase while installing i accidently messed up the part of windows it needs to start i think on another hard drive.
i dont mind anymore. its a easy learn but now i down to the nitty gritty stuff.my audio outputs. i have a biostar board with reltek onboard audio.board model: TF8200 A2+ now i am just looking for a way to manage what one of the 6 ports do what.. like before in windows 7 with the realtek program. i could make every single on back their all fronts. or all line ins. or anything in between.
i dont really no what else to say. what ever other info you need just ask and ill reply fast.ps Ubuntu is awesome. its so slick with compiz and conky is nice to. only other problem i have now is music manager/player/mp3 sync. anyone know a good program off the top of your head?
