I'm working on a music-related project built on python. I'd be interested in been able to use timidity to synthesize sound for me. I'm doing it on my application but I'm only using simple sine waves for all music and I'd like to be able to sound more realistic. Are the hooks available of timidity for python?
View 2 RepliesI just finished my first bash script for moving around mp3s based on their ID3 tags. So I'm fairly new to this kind of stuff!Now I need a small program for Stop Motion. I need it to be light, To preview the camera frame, and some number of previous shot frames, via "onion skining" and surprise surprise, to control my camera.The thing is that I'm thinking of writing it in Python2.6 because I believe that it will be much more efficient and fun.
My question is:
a) Is this project small enough for me to tackle (considering I'm a freelance and currently theres no job to be found)
b) Would you propose an alternative language and why?
c) What about a nice link for learning a bit of Python!

in ubuntu 10.10, I have installed python 2.7.

Recently (last month or so) I have found that on restarting my ubuntu system I need to manually restart the avahi-daemon in order for the music players to be able to 'see' the music server. I think avahi-damon is running when ubuntu first starts up. The output of a ps aux shows:

I'd like to understand why I need to restart the avahi-daemon and either solve this or learn a way to automate restarting it on system boot up so I don't have to do it manually each time. My system is ubuntu 9.10 64 bit and the version of avahi-daemon is 0.6.25
1-When entering a music CD, video or files, any programs or music or video players and desktop are closed are removed all the icons and I can not open any program only on firefox, I can not see the files or anything . (NOTE CD-rom is in mint condition)
2-I graphics effects ruin the entire desktop and when it is in fact no graphic still looks bad everything looks pixelated or striped like when flex is damaged or something is damaged and is in perfect condition.
Now I'm going with the version 10.04 of ubuntu:
1-I have the same problem with the CD I had in 9.10, except that in the 10/04 I can open some programs with the Emphaty and monitor systems.
2-When you close the laptop when I open the screen looks as if the flex embers damaged or broken screen (when it is of course) and I have no other to reset it.
3-When you drive about 30 minutes using computed with any open programs (Firefox, Emphaty, emesene, movie player, Gnome player) to close it or minimize it gets super slow and sometimes if I Friza and then to turn it off and repeat history.
4-When I'm watching a movie or a video with movie player is super slow (just what I'm playing does not the OS) as if Lageado and stuff. But with Gnome looks pretty good player just the video looks very small and I can not put it full screen. Certainly in a Dell Latitude C610 Pentium III-Processor: 1000/700mhz-Memory: 512MB Graphics-Card: 16mb.
I've searched upon numerous links for a "fix" but they are either for older releases of fedora, or, I was able to make appropriate changes to the F12 KDE4 release such as the F11 how to fix pulseaudio and vlc guide in this forum
Problem: In order to get the sound to play on my system I have to go to PulseAudio Device Chooser and select default server,sink, etc. every login. I thought it was suppose to change it "permanently" , getting more specific here, when ever I play music in vlc I tend notice gaps/skips in my music very short skips .5 to 1 second sometimes 2 - 3, just now I was playing music flipping through some tracks then I am greeted with a nasty sound I cannot describe. Does anyone have a proper fix for this? Only result I came upon I have not tried yet was something with hda intel sound card and power settings, which feel will not work anyway
Here is my sound card: Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) Also not to mention, I use to get pop-ups notifying me of pulseaudio device not being to be found and asked to forget this device
I recently got an iPod touch 2nd gen. I plugged it in and it immediately showed up in Rhythmbox. I dragged and dropped music files to the iPod icon listed under devices on the left hand pane. The files ARE on the iPod, I can confirm by finding them on the device in Nautilus. The problem is, they do not show up in the music library on the actual iPod. Did I miss something, or is there a step I must take to get them to show up in the iPod's music library so I can play them?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been building my digital music collection for some time and used to house it on a local drive with no quality issues. A while back I built myself a file server using ubuntu and mdadm in a raid1 configuration to protect against potential drive failure. I link my iTunes library to the music files via a samba share and everything works great on the surface. I've started to notice that random songs are becoming corrupted with pops clicks and silent pauses. I'll even re-download an album and notice that it's corrupted a few weeks later. Now I'm at a loss to what is causing this issue; I ignored it at first but it seems to be getting worse and more widespread as time goes on.
Do you think this could be caused by mdadm? It reports that all is fine via 'cat /process/mdstat' but I wouldn't know where to look or what to look for if there were syncing issues. The other possibility is that I have iTunes set to keep my music folder organized for me, but I've never heard of it actually corrupting the files it shuffles around. The bottom line is that my library is getting crappier as time goes on and I cannot stand for that!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've had an awkward problem lately: every music player I use wants to instead of play music from my USB external hard drive, stream music from it. I have no idea why it suddenly started doing that. It may have been an accidental key-combo I pressed, thinking I had another window targeted and didn't bother pressing it again for my Totem music player. So I closed out of Totem in hopes that Rythmbox would work like totem used to. Well, it doesn't. It wants to stream music now.The problem with the streaming music is trivial, but here it is: I have a playlist with a little over 300 songs. I have Totem set to shuffle and repeat my music. Streaming music with it makes it just stop randomly after a few songs, and when I try to pause music and play it later it takes a good 30 seconds before it kicks back in at the beginning of the song.Like I always ask because I don't know enough to give back to the community yet, can anyone help me? Thanks.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor a long time, I've been downloading music from the Amazon MP3 Store (using Windows). I had hoped the Ubuntu One Store would allow me to use Ubuntu for downloading instead of booting into Windows. To date I've only bought and downloaded one album using the Ubuntu Store. Two reasons, namely that the albums are cheaper in the Amazon Store (at least the ones I've bought have been cheaper) and the files are hidden after download from the Ubuntu One Store.
I was reading last night that Banshee will be the new default music player in Ubuntu 11.04, so, I downloaded and installed Banshee which I discovered has the option to let me download from the Amazon Store (something I've not managed to do yet in Ubuntu). So I gave it a try and it downloaded an album successfully. As an added bonus, the music was downloaded to my Music folder and wasn't downloaded to a hidden folder anywhere. So now I have access to the Amazon Store (cheaper) and the files are not hidden (much easier to make a cd or move to another device for backup).
As of now, I'm exclusively using Banshee because of the reasons I've given above and I can see no sense in using the Ubuntu One Store as it stands. Will Banshee actually be the default music player in 11.04? If so, will it retain the ability to go to the Amazon MP3 Store? If so, will that then be the default for downloading music? If so, what will become of the current default and any music that's already been downloaded from there?
I am thinking of using rsync to sync my Music folder to another folder called Music on an external USB drive. I will be using the Scheduled Tasks front end to schedule the syncs. What should the syntax look like when I put it in Scheduled tasks. I want this to be as simple as possible.
View 8 Replies View RelatedAt the moment I use Rhythmbox to acces my music and my iPod 5G. I would however like to use Banshee, but in Banshee all my iPod 5G-music is displayed under the video folder, while the music folder is empty. Any idea why?And also I have several albums with different artists on them, which gets spread out on i.e. 10 single albums even though they belong to the same album. This happens - as far as I can tell - after I've accessed the iPod from Rhythmbox (which is part of the reason why I wanna use Banshee).

Having some trouble with a new install of Ubuntu 11.04. I use it for work, so I do tend to run quite a few programs at a time. Namely Pidgin, Firefox, Thunderbird, Chrome, Osmo, LibreOffice Calc, Calculator and Text Editor. Sometimes I'll listen to music using VLC. Sometimes (and I can't figure out when), I will be suddenly logged out without warning. Just BAM, black screen then back to the login screen. I've lost work from this happening.
My only clue is that it hasn't happened when I was not running VLC, but then again it doesn't happen consistently while running VLC. Also, it happened today when I wasn't running VLC but was using Calibre (along with my usual programs). Maybe I'm doing too much at one time? Maybe it's the RAM? How do I view an error log about what happened?
I've seen packets coming to my computer through a DD-WRTv24s2 gateway above port 32K several times. I have iptables (using fwbuilder locally) both places. My desktop stops the packets. But I'm guessing the problem is as I described in the title for this post. Yes?If you ESTABLISH a connection to some webpage, and you just accept ESTABLISHED or RELATED datagrams in rule 1 of your iptables, what will keep incoming TCP from that (presumably nefarious) site from going straight to your desktop like the building firewall isn't there?? If the site wants to connect to you above 32k, or portscan you, its RELATED correct? They know your IP. You've ESTABLISHED a connection.If my guess is correct, it would seem wiser to NEVER use these together. Better to ACCEPT all ESTABLISHED. And if something is RELATED, then ACCEPT it only if its the data connection on FTP or individually by service or protocol.
View 6 Replies View RelatedTrying to debug a network issue - we have problems with scp transfers to a remote host intermittently stalling. I believe it may have something to do with incorrect handling of sack / dsack TCP options. Looking at netstat -s, during a (successful) scp transfer the TCPSACKDiscard and TCPDSACKIgnoredNoUndo counters increase rapidly. This is on the client initiating the transfer to the remote server. This doesn't seem normal, but I'm having difficulty finding an explanation of what exactly these counters signify. The tcp_sack / tcp_dsack / tcp_fack options are enabled in the kernel on both hosts.
How do I debug this further? Are the counters a symptom of a known problem? It's kind of hard to google this, all I get is unrelated netstat output which happens to include 1 or 2 discarded SACKs, not tens of thousands like I am seeing. I can make tcpdumps on the client (unfortunately not the server), but what should I look for?
I want some users should be barred from login into some of NIS clients. Please help me to accomplish this. I googled it but still not very clear to me. Can you please tell me how it works. The OS is RHEL 5.

Not overheating to the point it shuts down, but the fan is going full bore, and mplayer stutters when playing a movie.This never happened when I was not using KMS, so it seems likely that that is the cause. It is definitely related to graphics, because when I exit X the temperature cools rapidly.Is this just because KMS is new and still being worked out, or is it something that can possibly be fixed?
