    Manage USB devices via Chromium Serial API

    So I ran chromium from a terminal window, and noticed that when I tried to connect to a serial device (my keyboard), it had log output saying that serial support in FreeBSD is disabled. [20210:-36888576:0419/190320.166177:ERROR:device_service.cc(337)] Check failed: false. Serial devices not...

    Manage USB devices via Chromium Serial API

    The CharaChorder One (CC1) keyboard itself works just fine (after I disabled the old keyboard/USB modules - recommended to me in another thread ). I was just curious about Chrome/Chromium browser accessing Serial devices under FreeBSD. SirDice, I followed your instructions and this is the log...

    Manage USB devices via Chromium Serial API

    I have a CharaChorder One keyboard, and some of it's functionality is managed via a web page, that uses the Serial API from web browsers (like Chrome/Chromium). I've followed some Linux guides, like add the user to the dialout or dialer group to get access to /dev/tty* but still it seems...

    Solved Audacity binary package no more (13.2 onwards)?

    Thank you, using the latest package branch worked well. For those, like me, that didn't know how to do that, here is a good resource on how to do it: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/483990/change-between-quarterly-and-latest-package-set-used-by-pkg-tool-in-freebs

    Solved How to recored audio from Game on FreeBSD.

    Happy to share. No idea if it's any good for others, but it gives good results for me. As I mentioned, I use a jack-to-jack cable connection, with a Y-splitter on the output, so I can hear the gameplay (via headphones), while recording. It records exact co-ordinates on my desktop (where the...

    Solved Audacity binary package no more (13.2 onwards)?

    Over the weekend, I upgrade by FreeBSD system from 13.1 to 13.2 and just now, noticed that I don't have audio/audacity installed any more. I tried to do a pkg install audacity, but there seems to be no binary package for it - yet it is in the ports system. Anyone know why there isn't a binary...

    Solved How to recored audio from Game on FreeBSD.

    I've tried with so many different software solution, and eventually gave up. Ever since, I've been using a jack-to-jack cable connection, with a Y-splitter on the output port, so I can hear what I record too. It's been working for over a year now, with great success. I have a small script to...

    I don't use Spotify, but I can confirm Chromium now plays Netflix just fine. 🙌

    Multiple USB Keyboards, devd, kbmux, /dev/ukbd0 /dev/ukbd1

    Rather late than never.... I finally got tired of constantly having to reboot my system, to get my CharaChorder One keyboard to work, after I unplugged it (or used my KVM switch). I bit of searching, and it seems you were correct. On my FreeBSD 13.1, I had to add the following to my...

    Solved Recording from two inputs to separate files

    🎉Awesome, it worked! Thank you so much Zirias. The mic audio is still very low, but I'll play with the mixer settings. I've also figured out how to use ffmpeg to record both audio inputs into the same video recording, as separate tracks. So I don't need to run Audacity while recording the...

    Solved Recording from two inputs to separate files

    Ha, my onboard sound card also seems to have multiple sub devices. So I should then be able to record gameplay, as usual, on pcm4 (aka /dev/dsp4), and then rather than trying to use pcm4's Mic, use pcm5 (aka /dev/dsp5) for the voice-over/narration recording. I'll give that a try now. $ cat...

    Solved Recording from two inputs to separate files

    Thank you - I guess that is the easier solution for sure. I've been following some Linux guides and YouTube videos with OBS, where it seems possible. So I'll assume it's not something supported in FreeBSD's sound implementation. Not a big deal - a second sound card should do the trick for sure.

    Solved Recording from two inputs to separate files

    In short: Can I record audio from Line-In, and at the same time, record audio from the Mic In. Each recording going to a different file? Is this possible? For some context: I can record playing a game (or my desktop) using x11grab via ffmpeg and the audio from Line-In also via ffmpeg. I managed...

    Lightweight web browser, a la Seamonkey

    Not sure. I'm look at Wikipedia, and it mentions (with references) that it 2008 it was switched to using FLTK toolkit, reducing dependencies and memory footprint by 50%. Then in 2011 the released Dillo 3.x with FLTK 1.3 etc. A 3.1 preview release was made 2 years ago. Yeah, the Changelog page...

    Lightweight web browser, a la Seamonkey

    Oh wow. Looking at the build and runtime requirements, that's so few. 🤪 The good old days of software starting instantly, and website loading instantly (without the side loading, JavaScript etc). Nice!

    virtual_oss how do you record currently playing audio

    I've arrived here, looking for the exact same answer. :) I would like to use FreeBSD to record my gameplay (with sound). Currently, I can record the gameplay and my mic (for voice-overs) if I want, using ffmpeg, but I cant get it to record the sound of the game. Have you had any luck in solving...

    Multiple USB Keyboards, devd, kbmux, /dev/ukbd0 /dev/ukbd1

    I was so stupid, I did the above, but typed enabled=1 instead of enable=1. After fixing my spelling mistake, my CharaChorder started to work (after a reboot). Thank you so much for helping with this. There is still one small issue. If I unplug my keyboard, and then plug it back in, it doesn't...
