MakeMKV error preventing Autorippr from continuing

[ericmatthys]

I am running into an error that prevents Autorippr from compressing the video. The error mentioned in the debug logs doesn't appear to be fatal and it doesn't happen until the video has been completely ripped. There is an mkv file in the tmp directory that plays fine all the way through with VLC. I tried using MakeMKV separately and it handled the dvd perfectly fine. Any advice on how to 1) prevent the error or 2) allow Autorippr past the error so it can compress the video?

Interesting.

What OS & version are you running?

[ericmatthys]

It's a fresh OSX Yosemite install.

[JasonMillward]

If you could check out /usr/share/MakeMKV (should be the same on OSX) and look for mmcp.xml files, there should be 4. (3 since you're missing the default)

-rw-r--r--   1 root root 8.6K Oct 27 18:54 aac-stereo.mmcp.xml
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 2.6K Oct 27 18:54 default.mmcp.xml
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 4.3K Oct 27 18:54 flac.mmcp.xml
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 3.2K Oct 27 18:54 wdtv.mmcp.xml

If you're only missing the default you might need to reinstall makemkv again, or I can share a copy of the file with you.

If this is the wrong directory you can try to find other mmcp.xml files using find /usr -name "*.mmcp.xml" or even find / -name "*.mmcp.xml"

[ericmatthys]

The mmcp.xml files are in /Applications/MakeMKV.app/Contents/Resources/, but not /user/share/MakeMKV. There is no MakeMKV directory within /usr/share actually. Should I copy the files there?

Thanks for the help, and for your work on this script, btw.

[JasonMillward]

No, I don't think you should copy the files if the directory doesn't exist.

Can you checkout branch issue-64 and test my change? It should skip over profile parse errors now

I don't have access to my usual development environment for now and I made the change in the browser so it may or may not work.

[ericmatthys]

That got me to the compressing state, but there was an error.

[JasonMillward]

Can you pull issue-64 and reply with the debug output? I added the command to run to the debug output since that appears to be related to the the issue you're having now.

And I'll need to investigate compatibility issues with /bin/sh and /bin/bash

[ericmatthys]

I'm away from my setup currently but I can try next week. I'm using zsh btw.

[ericmatthys]

My most recent attempt failed for a different reason. The title was odd. I'll have to try another disc.

Just letting you know I have not forgotten about this.

I've cloned my Autorippr dev VM and changed the shell to zsh and I plan on using it to find out what's going on.

[ericmatthys]

Ok I tried again with the latest commit and there was an issue in my Handbrake config. I think this can be closed now.
