No Console Setting for WizMetadataGrabber

[JavaWiz]

This thread is picked up from one in the XSuite category...

JKSmurf, sorry this has taken so long to get back to. Between my job and life in general, I find there is not enough time to keep up with all of this....

Try this version of WizMetadataGrabber. I've added a /noconsole parameter (must be 1st parm). The log messages should still be written, you just won't see any feedback on the console window...

jksmurf can you confirm that your Vista problem is gone with this version? If so, I'll make an XRecord version that makes use of the new argument.

:confused: Wasn't it WizImageGrabber you were having troubles with? I guess the fix would be almost the same as in WizMetaDataGrabber.

I wanted to test it for a day or two but I noticed the file is called WizMETADATAGrabber but the original (and presumably the one to which you refer from XRec) is called WizIMAGEGrabber?

Sorry guys, I thought the problem was with WizMetadataGrabber. Here is a version of WizImageGrabber with the same change...

Thanks JW, it seems to work without throwing an error, so far so good, much appreciated!

• I am not 100% sure as I haven't run it rigorusly, but will let you know if any problems.
  
• One minor syntax issue is things like Face/Off e.g. produces Face Off.jpg, but the file gets called faceoff.mpg.

btw as an aside when I run the new WizMetadataGrabber.exe I get thrown an error?

Code:

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I posted a new version of XRecord that uses the new /NoConsole WizImageGrabber argument. Hope it's case insensitive since I capitalized the N and the C. I already checked in the code change so hopefully the official posted WizImageGrabber gets updated.

jksmurf you probably need to install the normal WizMetadataGrabber installer first then replace the executable to avoid the error you posted.

Nice cooperation fixing a problem on a platform neither WizImageGrabber or XRecord authors had access to.
