[ubuntu-studio-devel] Introduction.

[Grant Burton]

Hi Ross

Thanks

https://launchpad.net/~bbbabynet

IRC is "bbbabynet"

I'll start reading whats on the links but.... since I upgraded I think I
have programs that aren't being tested like,( video which don't work at all
now and xcine where only the sound works)

I need to make a video today so I'm going to try to fix the TV card first.
The last time it was because studio detects the card as an Asus, which it
is but that's not the one that works so... I've got to keep changing
the saa7134.conf until I find the numbers that work. I'll also try to
assemble a video in kdenlive to see how it goes.

Thanks again

Cheers

Grant
