I am making a DVD from my DV videos. I have 3 video, audio and subtitle files in this test. My Muxman script is in file 2file.zip. When I load the file in Muxman, it gives the following error "Duplicate scene name Segment_1_scn1" and "Duplicate scene name Segment_1_scn1". The full log is also in file muxman_log.zip.

How should correct my script.

There are no chapters, probably, and so on, but I will leave them to another post. I'll try to start simple.

I use Muxman v15P.

Regards
LM

It helped to write here. I looked my script once more, and changed script a little. I deleted extra? scenes. And it works.

Now, if someone could tell me, what I did and is this ok.

And how to get easy chapters in the script. I plan to make one tape at a time and it is one hour. Its too long without chapters.

New script is in the file.

I have now cameras timecode as a subtitle in DVD.

Every scene needs to have a unique name, the names are referenced when building a PGC to play them.
The GUI default names are built using the segment name followed by _scn1, _scn2, etc
You segments are named Segment_2, Segment_3, and Segment_4. If you were to follow the GUI convention your scenes would be named Segment_2_scn1, Segment_3_scn1, and Segment_4_scn1 and one possible cell list in the PGC to play all of them would look like this:
Item=Program List
{
Item=Program
{
Name=VTS01_TTL01_pg1
Item=Cell
{
Name=VTS01_TTL01_cell1
Linked Scene=Segment_2_scn1
Command=
Cell Still Time=0
Access Restriction Flag=Permitted
}
}
}
Item=Program List
{
Item=Program
{
Name=VTS01_TTL01_pg2
Item=Cell
{
Name=VTS01_TTL01_cell2
Linked Scene=Segment_3_scn1
Command=
Cell Still Time=0
Access Restriction Flag=Permitted
}
}
}
Item=Program List
{
Item=Program
{
Name=VTS01_TTL01_pg3
Item=Cell
{
Name=VTS01_TTL01_cell3
Linked Scene=Segment_4_scn1
Command=
Cell Still Time=0
Access Restriction Flag=Permitted
}
}
}
And the chapter list would be:
Item=Part of Title List
{
Item=VTS01_TTL01_pg1
Item=VTS01_TTL01_pg2
Item=VTS01_TTL01_pg3
}

Thanks for info. I would like to check a few things.

Where does "Item=Program List" go.

Is it like this:

Section=Settings
Section=Content
Item=Segment
....
Section=Navigation
{
Item=First PGC
{
Name=FP
Menu ID=No Menu
Uop=00000000
PG Playback Mode=Sequential Playback
Repeat Times=0
PGC Still Time=0
Palette=DefaultPalette
Item=Pre Commands
{
JumpTT VTS01_TTL01
}
Item=Post Commands
{
}
Item=Cell Commands
{
}
Item=Program List
{
HERE
}

And

Is it so, that video, audio, subtitle and name are combined in "item=segment" and if want have a chapter I combine chapter name like "VTS01_TTL01_pg3" and segment name like "Name=Segment_4" in "Item=Program List".

And I if want these chapters, I put that name like "VTS01_TTL01_pg3" in chapter list.

Seems a lot of linking is needed.

There is also the problem, that free gui does not use more than one subtitle file. And I dont like Paypal. So I must use script. Besides, if I get script working, I could make a simple program to modify script to include all files from one subdirectory to one DVD. I have a lot of DV cassettes, so modifying scripts by program is easier than combining manually 13*100+ cassettes.

I let Muxman to mux three files and used that script as a starting point. It works except subtitles. There are subs in the beginning only. I got some answers a while ago. But there was bitmap-files. I have sup-files. If someone could tell how to put those subs in this kind of script (see attachment).

By the way, I tried several scripts without quitting Muxman, and there were strange errors in filenames. I then quit and started Muxman again and my last script worked fine.

You can use any combination of characters as names for programs, cells, scenes, etc. What you are looking at are the names generated by MuxMan, which uses a systematic approach to naming objects. The only linking involved is the chapter (Item=Part of Title) list, this is a list of program names that are the beginning of each chapter

Ok

There still seems to be problems with subtitles. I'll post that in subtitle forum.
