Installation Issue Causing "Unsupported codec with id 98314 for input stream 1" #16

Closed AudioAnchorite closed 6 months ago

AudioAnchorite commented 6 months ago

In trying to solve an issue, I purged this repo along with all dependencies before reinstalling everything.

Now I am getting an error when trying to use m4b_export-cue.bat: "Unsupported codec with id 98314 for input stream 1". I know that a few versions of the dependencies had changed since the initial installation, but I can't pinpoint which one is the source of this issue.

OK, the problem was nothing to do with this error message. I am not very skilled with coding, so I took the m4bexport-cue.bat and broke each function down into separate BAT files, where I received the error message "'py' is not recognized as an internal or external command"_ while trying to run py export-cue.py metadata_chapters.txt --audio-file="export.m4b" --output-file="cuesheet.cue"

Turns out there was some kind of issue with installing Python through the Windows Store. Or perhaps a problem with the version that I installed from the Windows Store. Installing apps in this fashion places the installation in C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsApps. Or, it's possible there may have been a problem with the pathing in my environmental variables due to having installed Python into two different locations, or due to not having properly uninstalled one of these versions yesterday.

Regardless, the solution was to track down all copies of Python and uninstall them, and then to reinstall Python from this link: https://www.python.org/downloads/
