NuMenu4u Scenarist Version

[Zeul]

@Akira_ru
I am already working on this.
@Master Yoda
This was caused by your directory "I:\DVD Ripping Apps\NuMenu4U". Replacing the spaces with a _ will correct the problem. ie
I:\DVD_Ripping_Apps\NuMenu4U

[Master Yoda]

I uninstalled the program and then re-installed it and i still got the same error

Number: 76
Description: Path not found

@Master Yoda
AFAIK NuMenu4U doesn't allow spaces in the name of the working directory you choose. At least I got a similar (if not the same) error when I tried to use a folder with spaces in its name.

@Zeul
What's the reason for this limitation?

@Zeul

At this point your reauthored menu is actually complete.... instead of deleting the temp files when done this version renames so if your working dir ia MYMOVIE it will move the numenu temp files to MYMOVIE_TMP

however, if you look in MYMOVIE\VIDEO_TS, you should have your new menu file. You may need to manually copy in the remainder of the ifo's/menu files though

This is following a runtime 13 error... (tried about 6 dvds, all get this, different pcs, diff set-ups, no other errors tho).

I move the files to the right folder and import using the generated scenarist script and compile, all fine, brilliant! but how do I get the ifoupdate batch file to work, just can't seem to get things into the right folders?

eg. I'm only shrinking a VTS_01_0.VOB menu, the compiled VIDEO_TS folder includes the shrunk VTS_01_0.VOB as expected but it also creates a very small VTS_01_1.VOB (about 1mb), and, it has also created a VTS_02_1.VOB of about 2mb, but I never asked it to shrink the VTS_02_0.VOB menu (and it didnt, just put a dummy there), not only that but a VTS_02_1.VOB already exists in the original files. (I don't need to know the whys and wherefores of this, just that it is supposed to be like it).

So, as a workaround, how do I update the ifos either manually or how do I use the little .bat file you include?

If you're close to putting out a new build, then no need to explain this.

Appreciated

First time I let go through all 3 menus TS, 01, 12 but it abended with :
Number: 9
Description: Subscript out of range

EXE Name: NuMenu4U
EXE Path: C:\Program Files\NuMenu4U
EXE Version: Version 1.4.7

Call Stack (lowest level first)

VTS::Item (line 5)
and only the assets tracks in scenarist, no scenario ie.

Second time I tried only VTS_12, it finished ok but scenarist during compile would give the error "...Bitrate too high ..." for some tracks. Those tracks were 11 frame long blank .m2v, but NM4U had imported them as still Menus, so I imported one of them as video, replaced the stills and everything was smooth after that.

Video_TS, well that's 350MB of blank video!!! Normal processing with NM4U had the same glitch as above with one 11 frame video, and the output was 315MB. So I replaced the 7 blank videos (30000 frames each or 20') with the same 2" blank video and VIDEO_TS,VOB is now 450KB.

I am currently stack with VTS_01 menu, were after all the processing is finished I get the

Description: Subscript out of range

EXE Path: C:\Program Files\NuMenu4U

VTS::Item (line 5)

and an unusable scenarist script, mind you there are ~150 VobIDs in the VOB.
last but not Leat, my sencere compliments to Zeul for this project, it is really impressive.

My only sugestion would be the user to be able to have three dinstict steps, "rip", "encode", "author", because my FN project took 3 days up to here, mostly because of the encode step. Finally a way to lower the CCE priority would be of great help, the only way to do it now is via taskmgr,

Tnx for the app Zeul,

all the best

Edit:
RB is right, tested that with vts_12 in FN and the only way out of the virtual aquarium is pressing <Menu> button. ATB

Hi, I haven't seen this brought up, but suddenly (after it worked for awhile), NuMenu4U doesn't open either CCE or ReJig. I see it in the log file, but it just skips right along.

I also see that it copies the entire M2V files into the NEW_M2V folder, so after all this time and energy, I get a menu file that is right about the same size (or sometimes larger) than the original!

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
I've uninstalled and reinstalled all of the software programs in use here, and have made sure that EclCCE is pointing at the right version of CCE, and ReJig is in the NuMenu4U folder.

Thanks for your help! Great program!

[sunchaser]

hello,

i get this subscript out of range error too. unfortunatly if i dismiss the error nothing happens except i get a second error:

Number: 75
Description: Path/File access error

EXE Name: NuMenu4U
EXE Path: C:\Program Files\NuMenu4U

any ideas about what to do?

[D3s7]

sunchaser : couple things to check

1) does your demux directory have spaces in the name? This is currently not supported.. I'd suggest removing them

2) Try rebooting, it's possible something is locking a file open

3) Check your NuMenu installation directory, see if the numenu.log file exists... if it does, try renaming / deleting it and re-running

[Zeul]

@foxmid
What is written in the Rejig file?

@t610425
There is a major bug with vsrip over a certain amount of vobid's. This could be the reason. The sst file is not being created correctly. Presently D3s7 is attempting to fix vsrip :D

[fourtyfour]

servus...

I tried a couple of movies now but I still get the dts error as mentioned before.

any ideas bout that?

[Zeul]

@fourtyfour

Sorry, forgot i had mention that. Found the error that was causing the GRPM value to be set incorrectly. All fixed.

[k-c-ksum]

i have had very limited success with the scenarist version of NuMenu4U, it would like to try some failed titles using the old version that authored using ifoedit but cant find it, all references point the the new version. Can someone please provide a link to the last pre scenarist version?

thanx

[foxmid]

Zeul:

Rejig never fires, thus - there is no file created by rejig. I can change from rejig to cce, and neither of these programs actually launch.

I can clearly see the log say that it IS launching either CCE or ReJig, but no program pops, and NuMenu4U just continues unabated.

I don't know what else to try. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, are there some files or registry keys I need to make sure are wiped to ensure a clean install?

I love the program, it used to work wonders, I'm not sure what happened in the meantime!

Let me know what other info I can provide you.
Thanks...

[D3s7]

foxmid:

The file I believe he's talking about is the ReJig control file.... this would be created BEFORE ReJig starts telling it what assets need to be encoded. Also, do you have ReJig copied to the same directory as NuMenu? It needs to be in the NuMenu directory to start.

If neither Rejig NOR cce is starting up, then it sounds like something else is wrong... Post part of your log file here so we can maybe get a better idea of what's going on.

Also, a "Dir/s" of your demux directory might be helpful

...can u plz use version numbers...so its easier to watch out for a new numenu4u version ;)

[Zeul]

@rasta21
this build is unrealeased at the moment, but not for long :)

[Darklistener]

good news
I'm happy to hear that
I count the seconds till then :)

[foxmid]

Well, it doesn't work with either, and it USED to work, so I don't know. I've got rejig.exe in the NuMenu4u folder, the ecl ini file is correct, and if I launch eclcce from the numenu4u folder or rejig from the same folder, they work fine.

Here is the directory listing and log file. I can't find any control file created, either in the demux folders or in the NuMenu4u folder.

Dir /S Here (http://www.thepagodagroup.com/files/dir.txt)

NuMenu Log file (http://www.thepagodagroup.com/files/log.txt)

Thanks for your help, this is quite frustrating! I just HAVE to lose some of the 1 gig worth of Finding Nemo menus, it's killing me..

[D3s7]

well when Numenu launches CCE it creates a .bat file that launches eclcce.. I'm not 100% sure what the controlfile for rejig is called or how it's launched but you do have this file in one of the dirs

06/14/2004 08:50 AM 0 Rejig.txt

which leads me to think rejig DID start but didn't do anything....

[foxmid]

Yeah, I saw that - I wonder if NuMenu is passing a blank control file to ReJig, and that's why nothing happens?

This is quite frustrating! I'm going to reinstall NuMenu4u in a different spot and see if things get any better.

Love the program, though.. Sorry if I seem negative. Just running out of storage, need to get a few of these projects finished and move on..

[Justn]

i am also having troubles with having cce start, it appears to just skip right over it and go into scenarist. is there anywhere i could get the non scenarist version to see if that still works?

[Zeul]

@Justn
I have found the bug that was causing this to happen. The newest build is just about ready, perhaps a day or so.

Zeul

[Justn]

awesome, i can't wait!
