muxman error

[Peerie]

hi guys. im having a probem with muxman. whenever i click the start button on the gui it comes up with an error that closes the program and then asks if i woud like to send the error report to microsoft. i have no idea what to do...plz help!

[mpucoder]

I would download the latest Muxman from a well known source such as mpucoder.com or doom9.org
Muxman does not send reports to Microsoft, nor does it use any dll's other than common controls, so it's unlikely that a library it uses sends reports to Microsoft unless seriously damaged.
You might try running a virus scan as well.

AFAIK XP is solely responsible for that annoying message, so if a 'valid' copy of MuxMan crashes then it should pop up.

ok will download it again...and run a virus scan as well...is there any alternative program that could create a dummy dvd in order to edit menus? jus in case the suggestion still dont work?

[Sir Didymus]

... to create a dummy DVD ??? :eek: ...

Could you detail a little bit more what are the steps (and the assets) in your set up ?

[Peerie]

when you use dvd remake in order to edit the menu background you need to export the background image...then edit it with any picture editing software...and then you have to convert it back to a usable menu using muxman...at least thats wat i think happens.

I guess Peerie is referring to this guide: http://www.dimadsoft.com/dvdremakepro/ht_customize_menu_background.php

which uses Muxman to encode bitmap: http://www.dimadsoft.com/dvdremakepro/ht_author_dvd_vob.php
