A typical entry in a Makefile or Makefile.am is: manpage.1: manpage.sgml docbook-to-man $< > $@ The docbook-to-man binary is found in the docbook-to-man package. Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field. --> S."> Brandt"> April 12, 2013"> 1"> s.brandt@mixxx.org"> MIXXX"> Debian"> GNU"> GPL"> ]>

&dhucpackage; &dhsection; &dhpackage; A Digital Disc Jockey Interface &dhpackage; DESCRIPTION &dhpackage; is free DJ software that gives you everything you need to perform live DJ mixes. Blend songs together with automatic BPM matching and remix on-the-fly with looping and hot cues. Whether you're a pro DJ or just getting started, Mixxx has you covered. &dhpackage; works with ALSA, JACK, OSS and supports many popular DJ controllers. This manual page documents briefly the &dhpackage; command line options. It does not describe all of the features of &dhpackage; or how to use it; Instead, it has a documentation in pdf format; see below. KEY FEATURES Parallel or split scratchable waveform displays. MP3, OGG, WAVE, FLAC, and optional AAC (M4A) playback. WAVE, OGG, and optional MP3 recording. Fast, database-powered library. Crates and playlists for organizing your music. Reads iTunes, Traktor, and Rhythmbox libraries. Cross-platform - works on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Shoutcast and Icecast broadcasting. Support for many DJ MIDI & HID controllers out-of-the-box. Advanced MIDI scripting engine for maximum flexibility. Vinyl emulation with Serato,Traktor, and Mixvibes timecode support. Bulk BPM and beat detection. ReplayGain volume normalization. Automatic crossfading with Auto DJ. Skinnable interface with several skins bundled. For a full list of features go to: . &dhpackage; does not have AAC (M4A) playback support enabled by default due to licensing restrictions. To enable playback of unprotected AAC (M4A) files, you can build &dhpackage; from source. See also: OPTIONS Mixxx is designed to be as user-friendly as possible. As such, its command line options are only useful for development or debugging, as they make these tasks easier. &dhpackage; accepts the following case-sensitive options on the command-line: <FILE> Load the specified music file(s) at start-up. Each file you specify will be loaded into the next virtual deck. Supported file types: mp3, ogg, aiff, aif, wav, flac <PATH> Top-level directory where Mixxx should look for its resource files such as MIDI mappings, overriding the default installation location. <PATH> Top-level directory where Mixxx should look for sound source plugins in addition to default locations. <PATH> Top-level directory where Mixxx should look for settings. Causes Mixxx to display/log all of the MIDI/HID controller data it receives and script functions it loads. Enables developer-mode. Includes extra log info, stats on performance, and a Developer tools menu. <LOCALE> Use a custom locale for loading translations (e.g 'fr'). Starts &dhpackage; in full-screen mode. Display a help message and exit. SEE ALSO /usr/share/doc/mixxx/Mixxx-Manual.pdf The manual in pdf format should have come with your copy of &dhpackage;, however there is an online copy available: . FILES ~/.mixxx/ The directory where &dhpackage; stores its user data. ~/.mixxx/mixxx.cfg The &dhpackage; configuration file. ~/.mixxx/mixxxdb.sqlite The &dhpackage; library file. Warning: Deleting your library will lose all of your metadata. This includes saved hotcues, loops, comments, ratings, and other library related metadata. Only delete your library if you are fine with losing these. ~/.mixxx/analysis The directory where &dhpackage; stores any additional analysis data that can't fit into the library file. Currently only the waveforms are saved here. If you delete your library file you should also delete this folder as the waveforms around 1MB each and are unusable without the library that generated them. ~/.mixxx/controllers The directory where &dhpackage; stores user controller mappings. All mappings that are created with the MIDI learning wizard are saved here. If there are mappings for a controller in the default resource directory and this directory &dhpackage; will use the one saved here. /usr/share/mixxx The directory where &dhpackage; stores its default resources like skins, MIDI/HID controller mappings, keyboard mappings, and translations. /usr/share/doc/mixxx/Mixxx-Manual.pdf The &dhpackage; manual in pdf format. BUGS To report a bug or request a feature, go to the &dhpackage; bug tracker: AUTHORS Since 2000, over 150 developers, artists and translators have helped create &dhpackage;.
