Here's a simple example of a movie only copy I did the other day although I don't even have to load a disc to get it to crash as I discovered during r0lZ's tests (see No.6 above). I've never had any problem with previous versions, 8.5 works perfectly on the same setup (as does 8.4 which I've just tested out of curiosity) and there are apparently no informative error codes that I'm aware of so it's likely to be difficult to track this one down. These days I've pretty much got all I need installed on my machine so my configuration is pretty constant and other than updates to existing programs I haven't added any entirely new software in quite some time. I haven't updated any drivers in at least the last six months either and there are no problems showing in the device manager even with the hidden ones made visible. Bit of a mystery really.

As I can see in step 5, the DVD is saved correctly, but PgcEdit crashes just after. Very strange, as the job is done, and it has only to refresh the interface.
Can you repeat the 5th test, but this time, use the Save option from the File menu. Don't use the toolbar. Is it an error message? Try also "Save IFOs as". Same thing?

Save IFOs option produces "IFOs saved OK" prompt and crashes in the same way as before. Is the Windows crash report info any use in tracing this? It says:- AppName: pgcedit.exe AppVer: 8.6.0.1000 ModName: tcl1bb.tmp ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00004c70 The detailed info is longer but I can extract that too if it would assist. Wombler |

I'm having the same problems with crashing on close. Going back to 8.5. Win XP SP2. DVDShrink and PSL2plugins.
The preview pane is also behaving badly. In the left pane I mouse over a VTSM and right click on it. Recently in 8.5 and now in 8.6 in addition to the drop down menu I instantly get the DVD preview window coming up. I can't find any setting that would set this back to the way it was... where the preview only comes up when I click Preview. No matter in 8.5. I would select "Menu Buttons". The Menu Button window would come up as the Preview window closed, I would edit the menu and move on. However, in both 8.5 and 8.6 after editing the Menu Buttons, I close the Menu Button window and behind the PGCEdit main window I find another Preview window hiding back behind there still opened. Thinking it might be related to the crashes I tried editing a DVD without the Preview enabled but it still crashed. Last edited by picree; 15th February 2008 at 05:17. Reason: added info. |

You have the automatic preview enabled. Untick the box between the "PGC" button and the Play arrow, in the upper left corner of the main window, below the toolbar.
There are indeed two bugs in automatic preview mode. The preview should be closed when you open the menu viewer, and not opened at all when you right click on a PGC to call the popup menu. I'll fix that problems. I am currently working on the crash bug during the save DVD operation, but it's not easy! And I can't promise that I will be able to fix it...

Sorry, there are many not obvious features in PgcEdit. I don't like that, but I try to implement all user requests, and PgcEdit is becoming more and more complex.

OK, with the help of Wombler, I have been able to locate the bug that causes PgcEdit to crash when the DVD is saved. It is (again!) due to bugs in the audio library of Tcl/Tk. When the DVD is saved, a dialog is normally shown (unless you have disabled it) to show the status of the save operation. This dialog produces a sound, and that sound causes the crash on some systems.
I might remove completely the sounds, but I'm still not sure, as they work correctly on most systems. Anyway, in the meantime, just select Options -> User Interface -> Play Sounds with Yes/No/Cancel Dialog Boxes -> No Sound (or Default Bell. The bell doesn't use the same library and works fine.) That should fix the problem. If that doesn't work, please let me know.

For what it's worth, I'd just like to publicly say a big thank you to r0lZ for his tireless efforts.
There's been a constant stream of PMs going backwards and forwards since this problem was first reported and this level of dedication deserves public recognition. Thanks r0lZ!  Wombler |

@rOlZ
Please make the colour of progess bar on the bottom (Rebuild time map, backup ...) somewhat darker - maybe green. It's hard to see on a LCD. Because this operations slow down the performance of PgcEdit its very important to see it. |

OK, I've changed the color to pure yellow instead of light yellow. Is it OK for you?

The automatic preview bugs are only annoyances for the user, but nothing else.
The audio bug, if it happens on your PC, happens whenever a Yes/No/Cancel dialog is shown and the audio is played. That could have some effects, especially if it happens when you save the DVD, but in the case reported above, it happens after the DVD is successfully saved (although maybe the user comments and GPRM labels are lost, I don't know.) Anyway, if you have not noticed that bug yet, it should never happen on your PC. Nothing to worry about. I will probably release a new version soon, with the fixes, and some nice improvements...
