SkipTool creates a bogus file if the name contains &

[pastro]

K, I tried doing Pride & Prejudice again, and just yesterday tried 'Turner & Hooch'.

It seems that when the queue gets to them, it just skips them. I do get a .info file.

Ok I will run one also. I'm leaving for vacation on Friday so I don't know if I will get a fix in for a couple of weeks but I'll give it a shot.

I believe I fixed the issue. Here's the new version. Pastro will have to set the config but I tested it with "Pride & Prejudice.mpg" and it worked successfully.

Cool. Mkenyon, if you get a chance to change the config in the script and verify it works for you, that would be great. I'm going to be out for the next couple of weeks on vacation - YEA...

It looks like the only changes from Pastro's version to yours is the path to mencoder, mplayer, and comskip. Cleanup is = no in Pastro's.

And this:
SET guide_mode=config_from_app
...
IF %guide_mode% EQU config_from_app (
SET input_encode_mode=%~2
SET input_ivtc=%~3
SET input_profile=%~4
)

I loaded what I'm using now (it says 'Version 0.5.5c pastro edition ') with stattik's version ('Version 0.5.5c' that he just posted) in WinMerge, which puts the two files side by side with the differences highlighted. Let me try something.

Pastro, I put a pause at the begining of stattik's bat file, to see what args were passed, but the bat never get's called.

My steps:
Select Turner & Hooch.mpg
Select options to queue in TranscodeQ
From main SkipTool menu click Run Queue.

I've been doing a bunch of files lately, so it's working.

Ok when I get back, we will get this working... I'm on vacation until the 19th without my development PC (as per orders) so I will look at it when I get back home.

Bump, Pastro, still doesn't do anything with &.

[pastro]

Ah yes - I'll look at this tonight.

Bump, Pastro, still doesn't do anything with &.

I put an echo %0 %1 %2 %3 %4 > c:\test.txt into the batch file.
The output is

"C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Third Party\stattik_transcode_0.5.5c-pastro.bat" "C:\ADEMCO\NEW & SFIX.MPG" "1" "y" "9"

This would seem correct to me to have quotes around the parameters. Can you do the same and post the output so I can see what yours is doing? I put this echo at the top of stattik's batch.

I use stattik_transcode_0.5.5c-pastro.bat. The very latest that he posted for us didn't have the config_from_app section so I opted to not use it. This was the only change from the 5.5c version that I could see from windiff (outside of normal config stuff).


Thx

Here's the output:
"C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Third Party\stattik_transcode_0.5.1g.bat" "\\GHZ\VIDEO\TURNER & HOOCH\TURNER & HOOCH_20080627_16301830.MPG" "2" "n" "1"

(Note, I renamed the 5.5 version's filename to 5.1g. Where do I tell it to use the 5.5 filename?)
