nope, unfortunatly, they are totally custom for my lazy arse. i see now that i should just write this properly to be somewhat "universal" with all the other STVs and the XML they write out...but I would need some time.

I just tried the DVD burner with Meekell's STV. I have tried it with one and multiple titles. I click on burn then "Starting" flashes on the screen then it reads "Something bad has happened...dying...null" The only thing that is in the working directory is a file named SageTopMenuFinal.yuv I has a size of 0kb. I have already downloaded and tried the Debug version, but get no other output. Any ideas?

Run regedit.
Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Frey Technologies
Look at the right pane and see what LastInstallDir says.
Is that where SageTV is really installed? If not, fix it.

If it is, then you should run the debug version via the command line.
Run cmd.
CD C:\Program Files\Frey Technologies\SageTV\CreateDVD (or wherever)
make <dvd_burner_letter> <your_temp_work_dir>
i.e. make E: C:\Temp

That will show everything...
Promise to have that problem of not displaying everything fixed real soon (it is at the STV that this breaks).

KJake,

I did the registry edit thing, it was set to Frey Technologies no SageTV as I did a clean install of v3. Now I am getting an error reading "Something bad happened...dying..."ERROR: [jpeg2yuv] System error while opening "d:\DVD\SageDVDBuild\SageTopMenuFinal.jpg"; no such file or directory. I get this running from the command line and from within the STV.

I get the same error... I reinstalled the debug version, dropped an .xml file in the directory then ran make.bat E: c:\work
and get the same error as dcannon. [noted above+below]

I opened up sage and ran it in meekell, and it worked fine. So I ran it on the cmd line again, and I get no errors. Maybe an environment variable?

On the issue of burning the DVD, I now get this in the error log:

The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

The info you mentioned to me (scsi-id), all checks out ok. It seems the stv also
locks the output log file... maybe a similar issue?

and no, I do not watch Divorce Court... It was just a test program!!

Thanks for all of your help so far, I have a feeling this will be 100% working
for me soon.

make sure you use the meekell stv to kick off the process at least once. it produces the proper XML.

kendryk: i'll look into the file locking. maybe i somehow try and kick off the burning before the iso is fully done...right now as of this moment, i don't know why the other problem is happening. your first problem was probably because of the XML file you used.

dcannon: you're suffering from the same problem probably and i need to work on some better logging. i understand where the process failed, but not why.

i'll fix this in the next version.

well, i started working on the next version. to start moving away from the stv dependancy, i'm going to require my own ini file. this will also mean that we don't need any arguments from the command line any longer.

since i've never done this before, i'm proud of myself for whipping this out tonight. i built the config interface that writes the file out and allows the user to change the settings.

on the list for this next release:
* implementing INI file reading in my program (pretty easy).
* better logging for debug purposes
* file locking problem?
* alpha mpeg-vcr / videoredo integation
* documentation?

here's a screen shot...

kendryk:
here is an untested version (not the next version): http://www.kjake.net/sage/CreateDVD_debug_setup.exe
let me know if the burning works with this one, i may have resolved the locked file problem.

Is this mean you don't need the meekel STV?
And where do you input the DVD drive letter? I don't see the screenshot that you posted on my program...

Thanks anyway,
orky7

No, you still do right now, I'm still working on the next version. The link that I posted earlier this morning is just a tweak I made quickly of the current version for kendryk to try and solve a problem.

The next version isn't out yet, i have a bit more work to do on it first (like rewriting the XML parser).

Sorry it took me so long to respond, but I finally got a 6600gt to work in my system!!! darn shuttle pc's and heat issues!

I tried out the new version, and so far it's a no go. What program does it use to burn? I want to try out the cmd line piece for it.

i've been way to busy and i'm really sorry for that. i've got 2 day jobs and doing final bug testing on another project (http://www.helioscalendar.com) this week. i'm also getting pushed to release a new version of my gallery php script, so i've spent a good part of the week rewiting it in OO php. this has been low on my todo just because i'm getting more queries on all of the other stuff.
