Post subject: | MythBurn fails to run ProjectX: error message rather useless |
Hi. I set up MythBurn according to the instructions on knoppmythwiki.org. I am trying to burn a recorded television show to DVD. My setup is Debian sid with MythTV 0.19-SVN (revision 7355) and a PVR-250, ivtv driver 0.40 (kernel 2.6.13.3 for what it's worth). I installed ProjectX for commerical cutting, and Iam using Sun's JRE 1.5.0 update 4 installed with make-jpkg. I pointed my web browser at my MythWeb setup and configured MythBurn to burn this show. It craps out after about five minutes saying "Error running project X no log file created. Giving up." This error occurs in the remplex.sh script in the function remux_projectx. There are, in fact, some log files created at they are available here. I tried this twice, once with the MythBurn script tarball from the wiki page and again with the updated mythburn-oct2005.tar.gz file from Sourceforge. Both seem to fail in the same manner but I am still experimenting with the new MythBurn tarball so I am not sure. The log files from from the original scripts from the wiki page. I build my own MythTV Debian packages, rebuilding every few weeks to keep up to date with changes in their Subversion repository. I noticed here recently MythTV started saving it's MPEG files with the extension .mpg instead of .nuv. Could it be that a (now) incorrect assumption of a .nuv extension in one of the MythBurn scripts is causing the problem? Also, at the very beginning the MythBurn output says "commercial cut disabled, outputting for DVD format only." I'm not sure what this means. I would like chapter points at commerical breaks (as detected by MythTV), is this possible? What is it doing when it says this? Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer. Andrew |

Hi Andrew, Open ProjectX gui go to Presettings and then extern, disable rename to mpv. then you will get a m2v and mp2 file. This is was mythburn version oct 2005 expects. And do you know that you have to patch version 0.9.1? http://forum.dvbtechnics.info/showthread.php?t=2068 It's in german but there is a link to common.zip. Lookup sources.lst where you have to copy Common.java. And 'bube' told me too Which version of Projectx are you using? I suppose you use 0.9.x. Then you have to open the GUI and change some settings. First you have to select "use frames as cutpoints". The second setting you have to change is the name of your audio output file. The ending of the file has to be mpa not mp2. You also have to change the name xyz_X.log to xyz_log.txt in all of your scripts. The commandline of PX also changed. Open mpeg2cut-px.sh and replace the line: nice -n 19 ${projectx} -o . -p cutlist_x.txt $file with: nice -n 19 ${projectx} -out . -cut cutlist_x.txt $file By these I got much further. Look on this wiki topic Update mythburn script. Henk Schoneveld |

I was using 0.8.2, for which there were binaries available. I think the first thing for me to try is to update to the latest available from Sourceforge. I am downloading the JDK to compile it now. Thank for your help. Andrew |

I discovered something interesting: the getmyth.sh script is failing due to an SQL syntax error. I'm thinking that the structure of the MythTV database has changed and the MythBurn script isn't updated yet. I have MySQL 4.0.24 from the Debian repository installed, and MythTV 0.19 SVN revision 7355. |
