Built-in pitch-shifting support is in the works, based on gstreamer/pygst. It's available in a development branch at Github if you're happy to try out the bleeding-edge version, but not quite ready for official release yet.

And if you are merely “interested” in contributing, then you’re probably not British. 😉

Excellent and easy AND stable. Reliable show performance… now all you need is an integrated semi-tone pitch shifter for the mouse dependent clickers (jack rack is too cumbersome) and you have the perfect package!

Hi Kevin,

It should be possible to do this, but it’s not exactly point-and-click at this stage.

You can generate a set of JPG files using the command-line –dump option. The resulting set of images can then be put back together using many different programs to generate an MPG file. Typically mjpegtools is used to do this on Linux and we provide a Python script to take away the pain of doing this – I’m not sure if mjpegtools is available for Windows, but you could use any video editing software, or mplayer/mencoder on the command-line to splice the JPGs back together. There should be a wide range of Windows programs capable of splicing together still images in this way.

Instructions for using the –dump option are in the README file delivered with the source code.

I am running on a Windows 32 platform and I would like to use this application/toolset to export CDG+MPE files to MPEG (love the rendering via the pykaraoke application).

Is there a good guide to follow? I cannot seem to find one.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Kevin

Sounds good! I’ll have to check it out when I get home. I service a customer’s karaoke computers and he has been looking to get away from winamp and use something dedicated. I’m a big fan of Linux and opensource goodness so we’ll see if this is something he can use.
