Ubuntu Multimedia :: Cannot Preview Black Screen / Could Not Generate Thumbnail?

Oct 3, 2010

At some point after one of the many updates I do to my system, I seem to have lost the ability to preview myself on cam. Simply put, software like CamStream and Cheese just give me a black screen when I open it up. So, I cant see how I look on cam and what's in or out of the shot. If I tell Cheese or Camstream to capture a still, there is no problem. In fact, that is the only way I can determine what the camera is seeing of me and my background.

The only "solution" is to either have Cheese takke my pic and determine from there (as just mentioned), or go on a video chat room and have it use my camera to give me a real-time look at what the camera is aimed to. As someone who creates webcam videos for upload, and sometimes needs to move the camera while still live, this is not convenient so I hope to fix it.

Here are the command line outputs Im getting:

Cheese:

Code:
** (cheese:3704): WARNING **: could not generate thumbnail for /home/lixen69y2k/Webcam/2010-08-25-101226.ogv (video/ogg)
** (cheese:3704): WARNING **: Icon 'video-ogg' not present in theme
Camstream:

Code:
W: CamStream version 0.27 starting.
>> void CCamStreamApp::ReadConfigFile()
<< void CCamStreamApp::ReadConfigFile()
code....

Could not grab image (select timeout): Resource temporarily unavailable.Seems that GUVCview gives me the best articulation of what the problem is. I have both a built-in webcam for my laptop as well as a USB one. Both seem to have this problem so I know its a case of some part of my software being the trouble.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Lost Video Thumbnail Preview In Dolphin

Mar 28, 2010

After I manually installed multimedia codecs, like w32codecall, I got Linux to play movies and I also got thumbnail previews of them in Dolphin. However, I noticed that recently Dolphin doesn't display my thumbnails anymore. I don't quite recall whether the any video player could use my installed codecs, at least xine works. The only thing that could have caused that is actually the automatic system updates I received. I still have my multimedia codecs installed, but Dolphin doesn't show the movie previews anymore.

Software :: Preview / Thumbnail / Screenshot Generator Of A Video File

Feb 27, 2009

I have some videos I am looking to share and post to a couple of places. I am looking to preview to the potential downloaders the file quality, plus some statistical info. In Windows Media Players Classic, as shown in my example here, you have the length of the video, file size, file name... and in each frame preview you have a time stamp stating at what part of the video the from is from.is there a program in linux that can do this for me? That can generate the same (or maybe more) info automatically?

Ubuntu :: Created A "bkl-thumbnail" Home Dir And Has Been Caching Image Thumbnail

Oct 5, 2010

I have this bkl-orbiter daemon running for something that apparently needs it (wacom drivers maybe).

It created a "bkl-thumbnail" home dir and has been caching image thumbnails.

Any way to keep it from doing that? Or find out why it's doing it?

Ubuntu :: Can't Increase Partition Size

Oct 11, 2010

I have 4 primary partitions on my hard drive. One of these partitions has been divided into 3 logical partitions with some free space left over. The order is this: "swap", "/", "/home", and about 80GB of unallocated space. I want to incorporate that unallocated space into the home partition. I tried this by booting a live CD and starting GParted but it didn't give me the option to increase the size of my home partition or the primary partition as a whole. The only thing it would let me do is decrease the size of my home partition.

Ubuntu :: Increase The Size Of Desktop?

Apr 8, 2011

Default Ubuntu drivers work fine, but wanted to take advantage of what the new drivers had to offer.

Using Ubuntu 10.10.

Installed latest catalyst drivers vers 11.3 My board has a inbuilt ATI Radeon HD 4250

i installed originally via admin -> additional drivers, but my desktop has shrunk about an inch around the edges (splash screen also changed)

I'm using a Panasonic Plasma Screen (XBMC HTPC) vis HDMI.

Catalyst mentions the Panasonic in Display Manager, but also mentions a Projector (1), which is also the Panasonic TV .

Resolution is set ate 1920 x 1080 and refresh 50 Hz.

I then reinstalled the ATI drivers as per [URL] , but no change (and lost screen coming out of XBMC).

I also installed the splash page fix here [URL] so now at least it looks pretty.

fglrxinfo gives me

Code:
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon HD 4250
OpenGL version string: 3.3.10600 Compatibility Profile Context

how I can increase the size of my desktop?

Finally i have installed ubuntu 10.10 on my home PC. Its working so so good i cant really imagine :-). At the time of partition due to my immaturity, i selected the size of '/' to be 10 Gb.

Currently i have 3 partitions

'/' 10 GB
'/boot' 99 MB
'Date' 50 GB

on rest, its my windows xp.

Ubuntu :: Chromium Tab Font Size Too Small

Jun 5, 2010

The font size on Chromium for the URL and tabs is *far* too small. I went into the "Under the Hood" settings, but to no avail. How can I make this bigger? [URL] Also, the bookmarks bar seem to be inheriting system fonts, but it looks like that size is hard coded too. I love chromium but I need some accessibility here.

Fedora :: How To Increase Size Of /dev/shm

Aug 8, 2011

I'm running FC 14 and the /dev/shm is no longer as big as it used to be (under an older FC). How can I increase the size of the /dev/shm? I tried the following

Code:
mount -o remount,size=6G /dev/shm

Which seemed to work, but then the system hung when I tried to use the extra space and I had to reboot. What's the correct way to increase the size of the /dev/shm partition?

Ubuntu :: Increase Swap Space Size?

Oct 7, 2010

I got back to my laptop after dinner and found a blank screen with one line of text saying something about running out of swap space - I tried all kinds of key combinations but nothing worked to bring the desktop back - eventually I pressed and held the power button to shut it down - I suppose this is Ubuntu's version of the "blue screen of death"?I went to System - Disk Utility to make a 2GB free space right after the swap space. Then I tried to make that 2GB free space a swap space partition but it came back with an error

Ubuntu :: Increase Installation Size Of Wubi?

Jul 9, 2011

I am trying to install Ubuntu via Wubi on a 120GB hard drive but the max installation size is only 30GB. I can NOT use a CD/DVD or USB to boot because I get an error 'BOOTMGR is missing press CTRL + ALT + Delete to restart' I'm currently on Windows 7 and have looked into fixing that error. I have tried using a Windows 7 recovery disc and followed some guides but I can't seem to fix it. So I am left with the only option of installing Ubuntu via Wubi but I want to use the entire hard drive, and not just 30GB. So what I'm asking is if there is a way to increase the size.

Ubuntu :: Gparted Won't Increase Partition Size

Aug 2, 2011

I have booted up in a Gparted system disk. I'm trying to use Gparted to resize my current linux partition. It sits on a one HDD with another Windows partition.I have delete the windows partition (626GB) and now want to resize my linux partition to use all this unallocated space. When trying to resize the linux partition (293GB) I am not able to do so. No space is shown to be available to use. I can only make the partition smaller. Can anyone think of why I won't be able to increase my linux partition to use this now unallocated space?

Ubuntu Servers :: Increase Partition Size On 11.04?

Sep 1, 2011

I have a server setup running VirtualBox and several Windows guests. I'm running the box headless and start the windows machines using

Code:

sudo vboxheadless -s "WinXP Pro SP3"&

via SSH session from my MacBookPro in terminal. I then connect to the Virtual Machines running MS Remote Desktop from the MacBookPro. All of this works perfectly except that I've run out of space on my partition for Virtual Machines and need to create a few more. I have plenty of room on the HDD but when first installing Ubuntu Server I only partitioned and formated about 1/4 of the drive. Is it possible to run a command in my SSH session at the command line to partition the unused portion of the HDD, format it, and expand my current partition into that space? Or, do I have to use something like gpartedlive, boot from the CD and do the partitioning?

Ubuntu :: Increase The Size Of /home Directory?

Jun 21, 2011

I need to increase the size of my /home directory. I am working with Ubuntu(2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:34:50 UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I checked the partitons with df -h command...the output is :

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda7 11G 4.3G 6.2G 42% /
none 1001M 560K 1000M 1% /dev
none 1006M 188K 1006M 1% /dev/shm

[Code]....

Clearly /usr has loads of space here...and I dont know /home is mounted with which partiton...I read somewhere that tune2fs command could be useful here...I dont want to experiment and mess up here..
