I had posted this problem earlier. I am having problems importing chapters into Scenarist. When I try to create a new scenarist script in ScenChap 1.27, I am getting the following errors.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "wxFrame1.pyo", line 115, in OnGo
File "TrackNotebook.pyo", line 573, in go
File "TrackNotebook.pyo", line 609, in loadNewChapterPoints
File "DVDTime.pyo", line 8, in create
File "DVDTime.pyo", line 59, in __init__
DVDTime.Error: Illegal time for 30 fps (1, 22, 50, 30)

Any ideas folks? I am thinking of adding the chapters manually in Scenarist from the info I get from ChapterXtractor, if this does not workout. Is there a guide for that? Or a quick guide on how to do it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

To add chapters manually:

Check out this excellent Scenarist Guide and scroll down the page to "Step 3 Defining Chapters". It has pictures and is pretty easy to follow along to if you have your own project up there. One thing to add though: instead of dragging the slider to find your video point as suggested, I go to the VIEW menu and choose SIMULATION WINDOW (you can also click the 4 icon from the left of the row). This opens up a preview window that you can use to find your point. You can then proceed to add a scene (aka chapter) as listed in the guide.

Hope this helps.

Oops, here is the guide:
