ScenAid 0.9.0.26 Released

[D3s7]

Build .26(revb) is now available for download.. This build includes primarily fixes but some new features as well.

Hopefully this will be the last build before 1.0

Changes as Follows:

Addition: Added ability to handle out of order chapters and PG's with no chapter marker
Addition: Added ability to use Original Palettes from the ifo instead of just Scenarist Default
Addition: Added ability to "Use" original assets... not sure why you'd want this but a few people requested it
Addition: Added correction for crossing scene boundry for subs (requires custom vsrip/vsconv)
Addition: Added Highlight detection and auto padding for sub streams not demuxed (requires custom vsrip/vsconv)
Addition: Added Highlight creation and starts of BoV (requires custom vsrip/vsconv)
Addition: Added XP Theme compatibility

Fix: Corrected IFO handler bug (should fix error 9)
Fix: Corrected bug causing Script generation to error out if BatchCCE isn't installed
Fix: Corrected problem with audio routine when parsing filenames with spaces in it - (delaycut didn't like spaces in the name)
Change: Modifed ifo handler to correct for poor ifo layouts caused by bad authoring
Change: Audio delay routine now purely uses difference in frames from audio -> video and ignores filename
Change: Rewrote sub time handlers for better placement for NTSC subs
Change: Modified Interface to allow for XP Manifests and better location for info..
Change: Modified Automate_Scenarist to allow for better control (should help with lockups)
Change: Interface Cleanup / Slight redesign


.26 rev B

Fix: Corrected problem with BatchCCE menu items being disabled instead of checked

Custom versions of VSRIP/VSCONV are also on the website for download... replace the ones that are in the doitfast4u directory BEFORE demuxing your movie

Hi,

Can you fix the download link for ScenAid RC3 (0.9.0.26 Please? It's linked to VSrip files.

Thanks

[D3s7]

Bah.. sorry

Fixed

[pcm1ke]

Something odd...

Whenever I choose Options|BatchCCE Options|Open BatchCCE the item goes grey rather than putting a check in front and the only way to recover from the issue is to restart ScenAid. I've got all the latest runtimes, so I doubt that's the issue. Any ideas? ;)

[arlsair]

Checked that. For me, it is the same.

But anyway, big thanks for the new release.

[D3s7]

Well that was interesting...

Ok..fixed the checkbox issue and replaced .26 with .26b

Please just download the 26 installer again and rerun...

new version will say Release revB

[muppets]

hello D3s7,

there's also a checkbox issue with sub handling:
scenaid either checks or unchecks both original palette and scenarist palette or seems to do nothing at all. restarting resolves this problem (i.e. the option that i really want to be checked is checked).

and i'm afraid i found another bug:
i tried to make a backup of the fifth element deluxe edition r2. when generating the script with version .26 i get the following error:


Procedure Name: FindSubLocation
Module Name: ProcessAssets

Error Number: 9
Error Description: Index außerhalb des gültigen Bereichs
Error Source: ScenAid
Error Line: 64
Call Stack:
FindSubLocation --> ProcessAssets
ProcessSST --> ProcessAssets
ProcessSubs --> ProcessAssets
ProcessDIF --> Form1
DIF_Browse_Click --> Form1

when disabling sub processing everything is fine and the script is generated.

then i tried with version .25 and get this error:


Procedure Name: WriteBMPData
Module Name: ScriptGenerate

Error Number: 13
Error Description: Typen unverträglich
Error Source: ScenAid
Error Line: 141
Call Stack:
WriteBMPData --> ScriptGenerate
GenerateData --> ScriptGenerate
GenerateScriptFile --> ScriptGenerate
ExecuteBuild_Click --> Form1
ProcessDIF --> Form1
DIF_Browse_Click --> Form1

i can send you the log of version .25 if you want to, but not of .26 as it seems that there's no log generated by the new version (at least i can't find one).

cu muppets

edit: .26b resolves batchcce issue but not the others mentioned

[D3s7]

Ok i got the checkbox option fixed...

Found the logfile problem and fixed it

with the subs... can you send me one of your .sst files... I think I found the problem want to verify

[muppets]

you've got mail ;)

[D3s7]

Enough big problems had been found already that justify releasing a new rev..

as soon as I get a reply back from a few people I'll release .27

[Darklistener]

D3s7 are those things already in version .26b fixed or next release?

Ok i got the checkbox option fixed...
Found the logfile problem and fixed it

looks like your post was faster :) thx all clear^^

what's the last audio file listed in the log?

is there spaces or anyother wierd chars (like ') in the filenames?

[pcm1ke]

After downloading 9026b and reinstalling everything seems to have worked out fine, so disregard my last post. Thanks again D3s7! ;)

Hey D3s7. I'm still getting 'error 9 - subscript out of range' with 2 different movies. One is a Seamless Branching title, the other is an Angles movie.

[D3s7]

well tha tsux...

what module/function/line was it on?

[iparout]

Hi D3s7.

I was glad to find out that the newest Scenaid fixed the "subscript out of range" error I was facing with the Pirates Of The Carribean extras disk, however it seeme that new problems have occured.

I have tried backing up 3 different movies using the newest Scenaid and none of them were completed successfully. To be more precise, Scenarist gives the following error for all 3 movies :

Info Multiplexing VOB "D:\SHOT\mux_data\\Shot-VTS01_007_Track_t.vob".
Info Multiplexing VOB Main Stream
Error Subpicture[1] (436:VTS1_P7_00_436.sp) and (437:VTS1_P7_00_437.sp) offset are overlapped (00:32:10;01-00:32:12;03) and (00:32:12;00-00:32:15;01)
Error dvd_mux : Open Mux_list File Error
Error Terminated Multiplexing (Shot-VTS01_007_Track_t.vob).
Error Wrong mux_list. Mux_list format or stream ID may be wrong.
Error Multiplex is failed.
Error Multiplexing failed, Track "VTS01_007_Track"

Error MuxFromDB:MuxVTS failed
Error Multiplex failed
Error DVD Video files could not be created


If I manually fix the subpicture overlapping, then the only error I get is :

Error MuxFromDB:MuxVTS failed
Error Multiplex failed
Error DVD Video files could not be created,

and again Scenarist fails to compile correctly.

I tried those exact movies with previous versions of Scenaid (.24 and .25) and Scenarist compiled flawlessly (it didn't even give me the subpicture overlapping error). So I guess there's a bug in the newest Scenaid... Just wanted to let you know so that you could also take that bug into consideration when releasing the new version.

FYI, I've been using the default settings of Scenaid, as they are when the program was installed. The only change I made is enable the "Generate Script after Scan" option. Everything else is default (which means under "Sub Handling" I'm using "Use Scenarist Pallette", if that makes any difference.

Keep up the good work, man. ;)

[D3s7]

Can you email me a few things from the failing release
1) the .log file
2) the .scp file
3) the .sst file for VTS1_P7_00

Thanks

- D3s7

[Yacho]

@iparout

THX MAN ! im fighting with that problem for 4 days now ! never even tought about getting back to older scenaid - i will give it a try when CCE finishes ;]

[D3s7]

well if you've been fighting w/ it for 4 days it's not a .26 problem :)

1 thing to check for all getting overlap issues: check the .sst and make sure it's not like that in there... one thing I need to add is for the system to check for overlaps which it doesn't right now.. it assumes the .sst is correct.

In ipa's problem.. it's obvious it's an issue w/ .26 but i've seen a number of "broke" .sst files lately

Of course I can e-mail you those things. Unforunately not for the movie I was working on yesterday since I finished it using older Scenaid versions and once it was burnt on a DVD+R, all files were deleted from HDD.

However, this problem occured in every movie I tried to backup so tonight I'll work on Runaway Jury and when the problem occurs I'll e-mail you the things you asked. ;)

[D3s7]

well I believe I've found the problem....

i commented out the wrong line in the source and ended up forcing all subscans to 30fps

if a couple PAL individuals could shoot me their email address I'd appreciate a few testers... (preferably someone that doesn't use hotmail seeing how it's not real happy w/ attachments)

[wfn1]

while backing up alien quadrilogy (that previously worked with .25 revB) i get this error:

Procedure Name: ProcessAVS
Module Name: ProcessAssets

Error Number: 9
Error Description: Subscript out of range
Error Source: ScenAid
Error Line: 87
Call Stack:
ProcessAVS --> ProcessAssets
ProcessDIF --> Form1

the only difference this time is i'm keeping the x84, x85 unmarked sub streams that hold the 'removed footage marker' so it goes x80 (W) EN, x81 (L) EN, two dummies for ES and then 2 unmarked ones. Let me know if you want a log.

[D3s7]

hmm.. that appears to be finding an asset that doesn't exist in the ifo..

lemme add some debug code and I'll shoot you a build to test..

EDIT: ahh.. dumb on my part again.... ok.. think i resolved it... i'll send to you to test

[OmegaZero]

D3s7: Sent you an e-mail with IFO of my rip.

[f_speedy]

i have this error with the last version

thanks for your kob !! :) :) :) :)

[wfn1]

@D3s7

Looks like f_speedy is having the same problem as me, I am ready to test that build whenever you have time. Find me on #doom9 or email it to me (address in your PM)

Thanks.

[MaistroX]

D3s7, I sent u a PM here and e-mailed the files u need from were my backup of a PAL release with 0.26 fails with scenarist, both imports of subs and build.

hope we can fix this and I´m here as a tester if needed. :)

i also get the same error messages.

With .25 I get no errors at importing in scenarist, but at exporting in scenarist I get the overlapped subtitles error!

[influenza]

I have also noticed that i get some overlapping sub errors, which i had never before. Examination of the sst files learns me that those are ok. In the sst file there's no overlap, while in my scenarist project they do overlap.

[D3s7]

yeah... i had forced the subs to 30fps but scenes were at 25.... (oops)

so it was giving overlap issues as it tried to adjust them incorrectly..

1 step forward 3 back :(

[influenza]

Was? So it's solved?

[XadoX]

does it mean, that all backups created with ScenAid .25 have wrong Subtilte placemend :scared: ?

[D3s7]

Flu : yeah I think so... couple people are testing now

Xadox : .25 no... problem was in .26 and a new routine that prevents scene crossing -

[f_speedy]

there is a new beta of scenaid ???
il solve the problem ??
can i test it ???

[influenza]

Flu : yeah I think so... couple people are testing now

I somehow fell of the first testers list? :)

[MaistroX]

@D3s7 , u have a new mail.

[jel]

I somehow fell of the first testers list? there's a list? :eek:
i better start being nicer to the 'right' people - hey D3s7, are you a red wine drinker - i have a house near some vineyards *hint* *hint* :p

[D3s7]

haha... i need to make a list actually... maybe I need a "VIP" list as well :)

[wfn1]

d3s7,

testing your latest build, pls check your email. the substreams that are erroring out are the ones with the 'missing footage marker' but i think the streams for those vobids are empty.

let me know. thx!

[wfn1]

found that the latest problem occurs due to empty .sst files, renamed all to .bak and reassembled the .scp. looks like it's compiling fine now (aside from the scenarist's odd number of frames error and ocassional CC errors). the empty .sst's that were the culprit contain only the header and no actual timecode / bmp references. here's one :

st_format 2
Display_Start non_forced
TV_Type NTSC
Tape_Type NON_DROP
Pixel_Area (0 477)
Directory X:\alien\VTS02\subs\VTS_02_VSUB_V028-06-W
Subtitle VTS_02_VSUB_V028-06-W-(Not detected)
Display_Area (0 2 719 479)
Contrast (15 15 15 0)

PA (0 0 255 - - - )
E1 (255 0 0 - - - )
E2 (0 0 0 - - - )
BG (255 255 255 - - - )

SP_NUMBER START END FILE_NAME
Color (4 4 4 4)
Contrast (0 0 0 0)

[D3s7]

Just added a check for 0bmp's in a .sst and consider it not there if that's the case...

WFN.. holler when you get on/around, If you still hve tha tmovie demuxed, I'd like to verify this works...

I believe this is the last outstanding item from teh .26 reports...

[wfn1]

i'm around, still have the demuxed assets. send away on #doom9.
