Hi Everyone,<br><br> I've seen a number of posts to the forums asking about live video adjustment software, VJ software and the like. There actually is a large amount of this available for Linux but none in the Ubuntu Studio video meta package. Here's a quick list of what I've stumbled upon:<br>
<br>* FreeJ <a href="http://freej.org/">http://freej.org/</a> packaged: <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=freej">http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=freej</a><br>* EffecTV <a href="http://effectv.sourceforge.net/">http://effectv.sourceforge.net/</a> packaged: <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=effectv">http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=effectv</a><br>
* frei0r plugins: <a href="http://www.piksel.org/frei0r">http://www.piksel.org/frei0r</a> packaged: <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=frei0r-plugins">http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=frei0r-plugins</a> (more of a library than a software package)<br>
* GEM library for Pure Data <a href="http://gem.iem.at/">http://gem.iem.at/</a> packaged: <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gem">http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gem</a><br>* PDvjtools <a href="http://artefacte.org/pd/">http://artefacte.org/pd/</a> not packaged (yet)<br>
* VeeJay <a href="http://www.veejayhq.net/">http://www.veejayhq.net/</a> not packaged (yet)<br>* Gephex <a href="http://www.gephex.org/">http://www.gephex.org/</a> not packaged (yet)<br>* Lives <a href="http://lives.sourceforge.net/">http://lives.sourceforge.net/</a> not packaged (yet)<br>
<br>Personally I think any one of these softwares would make a great addition to the video meta package, but seeing as I'm not a video junkie I really am not sure if they'll get used. This e-mail is to judge public interest/support for such an addition to the meta, and if it's positive, which of the above (or possibly one I haven't listed) would be best? <br>
Logically, adding one that's already in the repositories would be easiest for Karmic, but if packaging wasn't a stumbling block I'd prefer to see VeeJay added (purely based on the look of it's user interface). The libraries for Pure Data would also be nice additions since Pure Data is already included in the audio meta. FreeJ also looks good. Thoughts?<br>
