One big glitch I have with the search field and I probably would hear you say that it's a tcl/tk bug but when I copy a command (right click) and paste it in the search, I get { }.

{20 01 00 00 00 00 00 0D}

You can't search for this unless it's 20 01 00 00 00 00 00 0D or [20 01 00 00 00 00 00 0D]

Update:

If I go to my Command Editor, click on command button, and select
Code:
Copy     Ctrl-C
I now get this in my search field when pasting. This works but you gotta do extra steps.

20 01 00 00 00 00 00 0D

Yes, but I prefer to leave them in lower case: it's more legible.


About the copy:
When you copy/paste in the main window, you are actually copying/pasting a Tcl/Tk list of lines. The { } are special marks needed by Tcl/Tk to identify the beginning and end of each element in the list.

For example, if you copy 3 lines at once, this is what is placed in the clipboard:

{00 A1 00 00 00 01 00 11} {00 A1 00 00 00 02 00 12} {00 A1 00 00 00 03 00 13}

This text only format is handy: you may transfer lines of code easily through a forum, mail etc...


When you are in the command editor, only one line can be copied/pasted at a time, and so the {} are not needed:

00 A1 00 00 00 01 00 11

Maybe I can add a check when a copy is done, and use the Tcl list syntax only when more than one line is copied. So you will not have the {} anymore when you copy just one line. This may work, but I must check it...

[EDIT:] Done.
History extract:
E. The Copy and Cut buttons in the main window are now placing the command
in the clipboard without the "{" and "}" characters if only one command
is copied/cutted. Handy to paste the hex codes in the search field.

I see.

You have a menu in the Title domain.
It is possible to add buttons on a Title, to use it as a menu. This technique, called BOV (Button Over Video), is used for example to display the white rabbit in The Matrix.
PgcEdit currently doesn't search for buttons in the Title's VOBs. Sorry.

Note that the display "VTS 1,1 TTN 1 (0:00) Title 1" is correct. This is really the Title 1, even if it is used as a menu.

@r0lZ

Request to widen your search to include button commands.

Off Topic:

I was just thinking about the logical flow of command navigation.
We pretty much have all been raised on IfoEdit's PGC Command Table layout as below.

******* pre commands
******* post commands
******* cell commands

But under normal navigation conditions, I think it should've been laid out like this.

******* pre commands
******* cell commands
******* post commands

Just providing food for thoughts.

That's better, indeed. However, in the IFO, the order of the commands is pre/post/cell.
Seems difficult to change the habitudes now.

Is there any tool out there that is "truly" perfect? It's like searching for the holy grail.

I hope in time r0lZ will figure out how to work with BOVs but I feel it's going to take him more than a while.

Exactemente! . Please, I just started to enjoy the synergy of PgcEdit and IFOedit. Having to adjust to a change in command display order would be really painful!

Oh, I wasn't implying on changing the paradigm. It was just a spontaneous off-topic thought. Funny though, once you are aware of it, you tend to notice it more when you follow navigations. Well, that's just talking for me.

@r0lZ

I have an error to report when I edit the command as follows.
Quote:
list element in quotes followed by """ instead of space
I was just playing around with the commands when I got it.
Code:
OLD:

[20 A5 00 09 C0 01 00 01]  15  if ( gprm(9) == 49153 "À." ) then { LinkPTT Chapter 1 }

NEW:

[20 A1 00 09 C0 01 00 0D]  15  if ( gprm(9) == 49153 "À." ) then { LinkTailPGC }
____________________________________________
Error Details:

list element in quotes followed by """ instead of space
list element in quotes followed by """ instead of space
    while executing
"lindex $cmd 1"
    invoked from within
"if $jumpfound {
		if {$targetpgc == -1} {
			set err true
		} else {
			if {$targetsection != "na"} {
				if {$targetsection == "pre"} {
					set targ..."
    (procedure "highlight_jump_cmd" line 189)
    invoked from within
"highlight_jump_cmd $currenttype $currentindex $cmd $linenum $jump true"
    (procedure "highlight_jump" line 11)

"highlight_jump $idx false"
    (procedure "::main::action_Edit_Cmd" line 24)
    invoked from within
"::main::action_Edit_Cmd"
    (command bound to event)
____________________________________________


Also, when I save the error log, it defaults to saving to my movie folder. Ideally, IMO, it should default saving to my backup folder. but then again, we have that option
Quote:
Create backup when a DVD is opened for the first time?
to contend with. So, this would be a bad idea.

Update: maybe not. If you could put a check to see if a pgcedit backup folder exists, open backup folder.

Suggestion

@r0lz
The Tools menu is wonderful - launching others editors and the like.

Is there a way to get the child process (eg IFOEdit) to automatically load the IFOs that you were working on when launching the process as a function of PGCEdit?

This would be very useful.

Am I just lazy? If so, disregard this posting.
If it is already implemented, call me dopey and help please!

I discovered PgcEdit today and it made my day. Finally a painless and free way to disable intros. Thank you so much for making this program!

Uhhh, dopey? I think I got it figured out for getting IfoEdit to open up a IFO.

____________________________________________________
1. Go to Tools > Configure tools.
____________________________________________________
2. With IfoEdit selected, click on Edit button.
____________________________________________________
3. In Arguments field, input "%p\%i" (with quotes too).
____________________________________________________
4. OK to set.
____________________________________________________
5. Click on Test button to see if it works.
____________________________________________________
6. If it does, click on Save button.
____________________________________________________

So whatever PGC you have highlighted in your PGC Selection, that's the IFO that IfoEdit will open up for you.

Update: If you add DVD Shrink.exe, you can use the same arguments as above.

@r0lZ

I've read your Tool Argument Notes and even though this says this, ...
Quote:
The filenames must be enclosed in double quotes. Example: "%p\%i"
... it still works without the quotes.

I will have a look at this error.
[EDIT:] I can't reproduce the error. Could you be more precise? What are you doing exactly? And, please, send me the IFOs...
[EDIT2:] You're right. I was using the new 0.3.6 version (still a beta). This problem is already fixed in this version.

I cannot change that easily. The error GUI is managed internally by Tcl/Tk. It is possible to replace it with another one, but the advantege is verry small.

If the application you launch has a command line option allowing to pass a filename to the app, it is possible.

For IfoEdit (and most application), you need to put "%p\%i" (with the quotes) in the argument field of the Tool Configuration GUI.
%p will be replaced by the directory name, and %i by the current IFO filename.
If you prefer to load VIDEO_TS.IFO in IfoEdit (regardless of the PGC currently selected in PgcEdit), then use "%p\VIDEO_TS.IFO"

Hint: Do a "Get VTS Sectors" in IfoEdit to load all the DVD files.

Look here for more infos...

Sorry, I have replied to blutach before I saw your mini guide. Well done, as usual.

Without the quotes, it works only if there are no spaces in the pathname.

For DVDShrink, it is best to use "%p\VIDEO_TS.IFO", or DVDShrink will open only the current titleset's VOB files.

Auto launch

@2cool and r0lZ,

The reason I asked is that I had already done those things (as outlined in the help file for PGCEdit) but to no avail. I'll try again.

@2cool - do you need to have the PGC highlighted?? I'll try that.

(Signed Dopey)
