PgcEdit v9.0 released (24 Dec 2008) and v9.1 (3 Jan 2009)

[blutach]

It's working here selyb. Many items are greyed out if a DVD is not loaded, but you say you have opened a DVD. So that is strange.

As for the View Toolbar issue, I can't reproduce that one either.

Then, it probably depends on the options I have set :-/

[r0lZ]

Thanks for the report. But, like blu, I cannot reproduce the bugs. Could you send me your configuration files? (They are in "Documents and Settings\<you>\Application Data\PgcEdit".) Thanks in advance.

[Wombler]

I get the same thing here but didn't realise that it wasn't supposed to be that way.

The icon is greyed out but changes to colour when selected.

Is it supposed to change as soon as the DVD is loaded or just when trace mode is activated?


Wombler

[r0lZ]

The Trace icon is gray when trace mode is turned off, and turns blue when you enable it. So, Wombler, what you have noticed is normal.

Selyb has another problem: the Trace menu item (not the toolbar) stays disabled when a DVD has been loaded. (Is it right, selyb?) Obviously, that's abnormal.
He has also another problem when toggling the toolbar on or off.

[selyb]

that's correct

I couldn't get the toolbar thing to happen after I restarted pgcedit

Edit: Well, I reproduced both things

1. Opened F:\Programs\pgcedit\pgcedit.exe
2. Open dialog automatically shows last dvd I opened
3. Clicked ok
4. After dvd is opened, pgcedit is in trace mode, menu item is disabled and checked

I have yet to find a way to enable it
I even deleted my configuration and reconfigured from scratch

pgcedit config folder is C:\Users\x\Application Data\PgcEdit
system drive is C:
pgcedit is installed in F:\programs\pgcedit\

for the toolbar, I did reproduce it

1. Open pgcedit
2. opened DVD
3. Trace mode is enabled and toolbar is disabled (I have those options set)
4. Clicked menu View>Toolbar
5. clicked trace menu button on toolbar (to disable trace mode)
6. clicked menu View and Toolbar is unchecked

when I click on menu View>Toolbar, the toolbar flickers once but stays enabled

[mikenadia]

The following error occurred after doing "Jump to PGC upon insert" on a second level menu (Trace mode; go to first menu and then select). It does not occur if I do the same procedure at the first level menu.
After doing the "jump to PGC procedure I have an error message when trying to unclick "Trace mode" or running "Remove useless stuff" (cf log).

can't read "::pgcs(0,0,TTN)": no such element in array
can't read "::pgcs(0,0,TTN)": no such element in array
    while executing
"set cur_ttn $::pgcs($cur_vts,$cur_pgc,TTN)"
    (procedure "trace_disasm_link" line 21)
    invoked from within
"trace_disasm_link $hex $k $ll $nexteditorline -200"
    ("7" arm line 43)
    invoked from within
"switch $cmdtype {
		0 {
			# flow control commands
			switch [::disasm::get_nibble $hex 1 1] {
				0 {
					# NOP
					# TODO: What is the correct beh..."
    (procedure "trace_disasm_button_cmd" line 8)
    invoked from within
"trace_disasm_button_cmd $cmd"
    (procedure "simulate_play" line 347)
    invoked from within
"simulate_play"
    (procedure "step" line 10)
    invoked from within
"step"
    (procedure "reset_trace" line 159)
    invoked from within
"reset_trace"
    (procedure "::tr::dvd_trace" line 399)
    invoked from within
"::tr::dvd_trace"

One way to go around it.Run "remove useless menu VOBs", then untick "Trace mode", then "Remove useless stuff".
(there are 3 uncalled PGC due to the "Jump to PGC" procedure (2 +1).
If I do "Delete uncalled PGC" , I have an error message at the second loop.

I hope I am not too confusing (or confused).

I did exactly the same thing, and no problem here. The Trace Mode menu item is enabled and checked, as it should.

That's right. I suspect a bug in Tcl/Tk, but I will investigate...

Well, I've located and fixed the bug that has caused the first error (and the error message you posted), but I can't verify if the subsequent errors are fixed as well without the DVD or more info. However, cascaded bugs are usually a consequence of the first bug, so I suppose they have all been fixed.
Please keep your original IFOs in a safe place (with the menubuttons.but file located in the backup folder), and try to reproduce the bug when v9.1 will be available. Thanks!

[mikenadia]

Thank you. Will go back from the original with 9.1 and post results.
Also, in another DVD, I have two PGC for which I want to kill Playback and regain space in VOBblanker. In v 8.6, each of them allowed me to gain space in VOBblanker (by just clicking on "Process"). in v 9.0, only one (for the other one, I have to blank the cell). I do not know if it was intended or not.

Thanks and Happy New Year.

[r0lZ]

It's certainly not intended. But if the cell of the PGC are used by another PGC (in the same VMGM, VTSM or VTST domain), VobBlanker cannot remove them, or the other PGC will not work any more. Verify if the cells are reused elsewhere. (You can do that easily by looking at their VOB/Cell IDs in the cell tables, or with the preview.)

[r0lZ]

Selyb, I've fixed the second bug, but I still can't reproduce the first one.

BTW, do you know that you can close the trace window easily by clicking on the X button in the top right corner of the Trace panel? (But you still need to go to the menu or use the hotkey to re-enable it.) Anyway, the bug happens also when using this method.

[r0lZ]

I have now finished to send all codes to the old and new donors. You should have received them. However, some email addresses of old donors are not valid any more, and of course I have no way to contact them. Remember that you can receive a free license if you have donated in the past. Write me if you haven't received your code yet.

IMPORTANT:

Since I've sent many emails to the donors to give them their codes, and that mails were generated automatically by a program, they were all similar, and I have been blacklisted by some mail servers (notably by comcast.net) for SPAM!


So, if you haven't received your code yet, please send me an email. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Can't reproduce it here either.

r0lZ could you approve the attachment in post 26 so we can have a look at it.

ref to post #30.
Sorry. My mistake. Went to Vobblanker with PGCedit still open and the DVD changes were not saved.
Was doing that in v 8.6 but it was saved automatically by other procedures. Won't happen anymore
(configured VOBBlanker in tools). Sorry and thanks a lot.

[blutach]

selyb's attachment is approved! I was away yesterday.

Regards

[r0lZ]

Thanks, Ron. I've replied at MMB.
Thanks for the confirmation, mikenadia.
Thanks for the approval, Blu.

Since moving to 9.0 under XP my watch window no longer launches upon entering trace mode. There is no option to re-enable it under Trace either. I never had it disappear before. Is this a Bug or a new RTFM
