{pop-away:metadata | comments | children | labels} h6. 3.\- Which computer should I use?
Depending on the [1.1 Hardware recommendations], an Intel (R) i5 or equivalent should cover most of the capturing devices.
h5. Installation
...For now, Galicaster has been tested only in Ubuntu 10.10, but we are working to make it available for newer versions of Ubuntu. If you try so yourself, please send us your findings or any issue you can solve.
h5. Devices
...h6. 2.\- The webcam freezes after a few seconds running.
Your computer is probably not powerful enough to handle the webcam video stream. Try stopping programs that could be affecting the webcam and lower its output resolution. Use _guvcview_ to identify which resolutions and frame rates are available for your webcam.
...Your camera and your capture card should have a compatible configuration (e.g., both sending and getting a Video Composite signal in PAL). Also, check your camera configuration to ensure that it is actually sending data through the wire.
h6. 7.\- Galicaster was working fine until I restart the computer.
h5. Media Manager
Two things could happen: The modules of one of your devices are not being loaded automatically or you are using a randomly created device.
In the first case, reload the modules manually or follow the driver instructions to load it permanently.
On the second case, please use UDEV rules to fix the devices source location on the computer.

h6. 8.\- How I establish a backup audio track?
Using the flavour 'other' you can record a second audio track that won't take part on the Matterhorn workflow neither on the Galicaster player. If the main audio track fails you should swap tracks and set the secondary track with 'presenter' as flavour.

h6. 1.\- When I delete a recording, are they erased from my computer?
...Review your ingest configuration carefully, make sure that your Matterhorn account is valid for digest authentication and check if your computer belongs to a network with access to the Opencast Matterhorn server you are trying to connect to.
h6. 3.\- After making a recording with presenter and presentation tracks, both are shown on the same screen when I play it in Galicaster.
h6. 3.\- The Matterhorn configuration seems fine but Galicaster doesn't connect to the server.
Remember to include the port in the host address and use a valid REST account, a user account won't work.
h6. 4.\- After making a recording with presenter and presentation tracks, both are shown on the same screen when I play it in Galicaster.

Make sure that {{conf.ini}} does not have two video tracks with the same flavor (video tracks are Hauppage, VGA2USB and v4l2).
h5. Usual launching program errors on 1.0.x
h6. 1.\- *Repository*
If the repository can't be loaded try to erase any of the last recordings you made, specially if the computer crashed or the power grid went off.
h6. 2.\- *iCalendar*
The newer version of iCalendar is not suitable for Galicaster 1.1.0 and previous ones, use iCalendar 2.2
