Re: [Encode2mpeg-users] Problem with ImageMagick and menu creation

[Phil H <phi...@ya...>]

I've forwarded the debug and log files to the addresses on the web site so my attachment here can be removed.

1. Re-encoding 2 mpegs to be chapters of a single-title dvd using option -videos worked without problems:


encode2mpeg  -dvd 5 -mpeg -encode 0:2:1 -usesbr 270 -a 2 -menu -n p -imageonly -menufix -o /mnt/hda3/enctest -debug -videos Futurama*


2. BUT re-encoding the same 2 mpegs to each be a title of a titleset failed - creation of first title hangs at:

   INFO: [menu] creating VTSM root menu

with `convert' looping as previously described.

encode2mpeg -dvd 5 -mpeg -encode 0:2:1 -usesbr 270 -a 2 -menu -n p -imageonly -o /mnt/hda3/enctest/WhereBugguloRoam -title *Roam.mpg

Same result if -menufix added.

I've attached a bz2 archive of log and debug files for this.

Perhaps I'm doing something untoward in my options combinations (?)

Top shows that ImageMagick's 'convert' binary is running (using cpu), but nothing seems to be happening, other than a 0-byte temp file appearing and disappearing ad infinitum.

I have a very recent subversion build of mplayer via anonymous access, but that shouldn't make any difference since that tree is only for bugfixes on the last stable release ( if it's the same as their cvs tree used to be).

I cannot tell from what you say where the problem is:
it can be a bug in ImageMagick, a bug in encode2mpeg, a problem with your
system, a wrong encode2mpeg usage, etc.

Please follow the instructions available on the main web page when reporting
a problem:

1) use the last release (0.6.2)
2) run  encode2mpeg with the option -debug plus the same options that cause 
'convert' to run forever
3) send me the log and debug file

The debug file can be big. Compress it with bzip2 before sending it.
Also you can send the debug/log files to my email address instead of the 
mailing list.
