Ubuntu Studio. A Multimedia editing derivative of Ubuntu, currently being planned. This page is the starting point for these plans. = Welcome to the Ubuntu Studio developer wiki! =
Line 7: Line 13:
Ubuntu Studio is aimed at the linux audio, video and graphic enthusiast as well as professional. Someone who is already familiar with the Ubuntu-Gnome environment. Ubuntu Studio is an official flavor of [[http://ubuntu.com|Ubuntu]], and the most widely used multimedia orientated [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU/Linux|GNU/Linux]] distribution in the world.
Line 9: Line 15:
= Ultimate Goal =
To build a solid multimedia editing distro based on Ubuntu-Gnome by Feisty Fawn.
Ubuntu Studio is a community effort, targeted towards all skill levels, from beginner to pro, and aims to be easy to install and easy to use, as well as providing all the tools necessary for any type of media content creation.
Line 12: Line 17:
= Get Involved =
 * We need you! Come talk with us on #ubuntustudio on Freenode and look at our [wiki:UbuntuStudio/ProjectGoals "Project Goals"] page to see if you can help. The IRC channel is STRICTLY for development of Ubuntu Studio. DO NOT come there to ask support questions for audio hardware/software.[[BR]]
 * Our spec page is [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudioSpec HERE] and our Launchpad page is [https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/ubuntustudio HERE].
== What we do.. ==
Line 16: Line 19:
= NOTICE! =
 *Our new main URL is: http://ubuntustudio.org This will eventually become the main source for info on Ubuntu Studio
 *Please try to sign your comments. Though, with the addition of concrete info, it isnt needed.
Our goal is to be an example on how to configure a [[http://debian.org|Debian]] and Ubuntu based operative system for our [[http://ubuntustudio.org/tour/|workflows]], contributing in bringing improvements upstream to Debian, and communicating with developers directly, by doing testing, fixing bugs and providing feedback.
Line 20: Line 21:
= Status = We aim at being the gateway for new users coming into the Linux world, wanting to use Linux for multimedia content creation, by providing applications and documentation, as well as being a portal to other GNU/Linux and FLOSS communities in the world.
Line 22: Line 23:
The plan at the moment is:
 * Multiple metapackages. ubuntu-minimal, ubuntu-standard, ubuntu-live, ubuntustudio-desktop, ubuntustudio-desktop-settings, and ubuntustudio-artwork will be the base. Then on top that can be added: ubuntustudio-audio, ubuntustudio-video and ubuntustudio-graphics, further divided if necessary. Perhaps divide each one by universe+main and multiverse, and that would be sufficient.
 * Use only packages in official Ubuntu repositories
 * Use the best kernel Feisty Fawn provides.
 * Use Gnome
Input has come from LaserJock on the best approach to this process.
Line 29: Line 24:
= Test Disks & New Repo =
We now have a TESTING repo up with our metas based on Edgy. We will soon have our metas in the Feisty repos. You MUST open up your Universe and Multiverse repos.

The packages are:
ubuntustudio-audio, ubuntustudio-plugins, ubuntustudio-video and ubuntustudio-graphics.

These packages are just metas. The actual packages for the apps come right from Ubuntu repos.

As said above we are currently on #ubuntustudio on Freenode if you want help with THIS ALSA FAQ.

Shouldn't that be posted in the community docs section, with the rest of the sound help documentation?
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound

= Current Questions =

= Comments =

''-'' I will put a quotation of one of my sound engineer friend : "no matter what it looks, if you can work a day on, if it is fonctionnal, and if it sounds great". Do you think it is possible with Ubuntu (or Ubuntu Studio)? - ttoine[[BR]]

''-'' I was wondering whether your efforts were tied in with the Automatix project who are planning Automatix Graphics Design +
Automatix Advanced A/V ?- have you considered the download route as opposed to CD/DVD install? I was also wondering what the main obstacle to offering a KDE version is ? are their particular packages that don't work with KDE?[[BR]]

  ''--'' We are in no way tied in with Automatix or have plans to use it. We only use packages from the Ubuntu repos. Gnome was picked because its what we know works. The metas are structured in such a way that they can be used in any dirivitave. At this time its untested though. -Cory

''-'' One of the audio/video based live CD distributions, Dynebolic (I think), has openmosix built into the kernel. I haven't been able to try this out, but it is something I think would be very useful in mubuntu. For instance that would mean that I could install the mubuntu kernel package on the machine running mainstream Ubuntu upstairs in the living room and use it as a mubuntu cluster node without compromising its value as an entertainment centre etc. RobertPersson2[[BR]]

  ''--'' OpenMosix does not seem suitable for Linux 2.6 and therefore can't be used in Ubuntu Studio. - ["DanielTChen"]
