Calf studiogear is an extensive and high quality plugin pack for professional audio production under Linux. It provides a lot of synthesizers, effects and signal processing for the use with LV2 audio production suites (like Ardour) or as stand-alone through JACK.

Calf with all of its new features and processors isn't officially released by now so you have to grab the GIT-repository from sourceforge.net until we are ready for a stable release.

guess is a tool to launch (and kill) different setups of programs. It was invented to startup all needed synthesizers, audio suites, MIDI sequencers and stuff with the correct source files on the right desktop for a single audio production with just one click.

traGtor 0.8.29: fixed input stream detection

Freitag, den 4. März 2011
Version 0.8.29:
* Finally fixed the regular expression for stream detection (thanks to Youichi!)
* Stripped unused double if statement in analyzeInFile()

Hopefully it’s working again… ^^ Youichi did an excellent and essential job when he ran different operating systems like debian, ubuntu, Arch and BSD and installed different FFmpeg versions in them to let a shell script iterate over different movie files to provide a huge collection of FFmpeg log files. This gave me the chance to prove the stream detection routine against which made a lot of problems lately. Now every version should detect every audio and video stream again – sorry that it took that long to get the expected behavior of traGtor back again…

Problems with traGtor?

Sonntag, den 20. Februar 2011

If you’re experiencing problems with traGtor atm please consider a downgrade to version 0.8.24 which is a stable one. The actual ones may avoid recognizing some stream formats and possibly doesn’t list any streams on the input tab as Youichi reported some days ago. Sorry for the circumstances, the next version will hopefully fix this mess.

traGtor 0.8.27: bug in comCollapse

Mittwoch, den 16. Februar 2011
Version 0.8.27:
* Bug in comCollapse: initialize pos first (no execution if no videofilters
  are found in the command line) and insert only if there is something to insert
  (collapsing options without them resulted in empty options in the command)

traGtor 0.8.26: Bug in stream detection

Montag, den 14. Februar 2011
Version 0.8.26:
* traGtor refused to accept streams with special markers in brackets after the
  stream ID (cleanup in code broke the stream detection regex i guess)

traGtor 0.8.25: collapse multiple video filter options

Samstag, den 12. Februar 2011
Version 0.8.25:
* Multiple videofilter arguments are collapsed to a single one
* Strip multiple whitespaces from the command line (just cosmetics)
* Some cleanup in code: length of lines

It was a feature request by Youichi, hope it works for you. If it breaks things in other use cases (like having presets with composed video layers as animated logos or stuff flike that) please tell me, it has to be an optional feature then.

traGtor 0.8.24: Czech localization

Mittwoch, den 2. Februar 2011

Martin Pavlík, the czech translator of xplanetFX, sent me a localization file for traGtor. Un-fucking-believable!

Thank you very, very much, dude!

Suck it.

traGtor 0.8.23: new 2-pass features and bug fixes

Montag, den 24. Januar 2011
Version 0.8.23:
* Added function to split user options for first and second pass
* Added new editor window for user options (optimized for 2 passes)
* Added option to skip audio encoding in the first pass of two
* 2-pass togglebutton uses toggle event instead of click (used to switch
  no audio togglebutton in sensitivity)
* Added second command line editor to confirmation window for 2 passes
* Added new crop and scale type (w:h:x:y)
* Version is read from version file
* Bug in createProgress(): try to destroy window before creating a new one
  (progress window 1 of 2 passes didn't piss off and rejected removal via
  the optional close button)
* Bug in presetFormat(): convert values to string before regexing against
  True/False (backward compatibility for new option 'no audio')
* Changed regex in presetFormat to check for more chars as string

Repositories, repositories, repositories!!

Samstag, den 8. Januar 2011

Okay, I heard you.

Since I’m building a sustainable server structure atm to get rid of this Apache stuff for file revolving I decided to strip the templates server for xplanetFX to build a simple repository server. It contains traGtor and xplanetFX and gets updated along with the present web repos.

As I said – it’s simple but stressable, written in PIKE and it doesn’t fuck around with huge logging, databases, parsing and stuff like that. And don’t expect a working signature by now, I’m checking it out. The stuff wasn’t stress-tested by now, so it’s getting … interesting.

Try it out, if you know how fuckin’ insecure external repositories and how funny beta versions are:

sudo wget -O - http://repository.mein-neues-blog.de:9000/PublicKey | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb http://repository.mein-neues-blog.de:9000/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update

Even though I will never load shit up to this repo I recommend the old scool way regardless: add the RSS to your favorite feed reader and grab the debs from this page directly. The blown up header gives direct access to all packages – it can’t be easier. And perhaps it’s a good practice to get over this “I have to have the latest shiny fuckup to be happy like Ronald McDonald”-feeling ^^ hehe

Okay no guarantee and please report problems with the repo in the comments. Thanks!

The templates server is ready as well but I don’t dare to release a new xplanetFX with the server address ^^ have to talk to John first..

traGtor 0.8.22: Useroptionen in Befehlszeile

Donnerstag, den 18. November 2010

Brotkohl hat festgestellt, dass die Benutzeroptionen nicht funktionieren, wenn sie sich auf Audio/Videocodecs beziehen, da sie in der Befehlszeile vor diesen Optionen eingefügt wurden. Ist gefixt und sollte jetzt hoffentlich so klappen.
