MakeMKV is a program that extracts MKV-files from DVD/BR-rips that are saved as an image (ISO) or a DVD/BR in general (a mounted one, preferably). This program helps you to do so unattended, scheduled and in bulk.

Resulting MKVs ripped in target directory. #9

Hi again!

I've been using bulk for a few weeks now and today I noticed something weird. When I cd into the target dir, here's what I find.

I went checking my config file but nothing in there seems to tell bulk to rip into this dir. Maybe the program is formating paths with backslashes in OSX and the result is that OSX is making a new dir with the path as the name and puting it at the root of the program (the target dir)? Every paths should be formated with forwardslahes in OSX.

# Here you can specify how the program behaves. We have several modes
# at your disposal which are described in detail below.
#
# Currently supported modes are:
#  scan                 Don't do a conversion but only scan target-directories
#                               for peculiar things (zero-size files, empty directories,
#                               etc...) and display a summary at the end.
#  convert              Do a real conversion of all files and scan afterwards.
#
# You may add the word 'debug' to any of these modes in order to get the full
# output of the makeMKV tool when it is called to convert.
# words doesn't matter.
mode = convert debug
#mode = convert
#mode = debug scan
#mode = convert debug

# This option manipulates escaping when it comes to paths. Use windows or mac.
os = mac

# The directories where your ISO-files are located.
#
# IMPORTANT FOR ALL PATH-SPECIFICATIONS:
# Always use forward slashes ('/') like in the examples below!
# Don't ever use backslashes ('\') since there are multiple issues with the
# JVM on different systems (non-windows) causing the command-line calls
# to fail!
#
# If you want to specify more than one, just add another isoDirs-parameter
# (same name) below the current one.
isoDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/iso/
#isoDirs = C:/
#isoDirs = G:/
#isoDirs = H:/DVDs/

# Regular expressions identifying the ISO-file-names you want converted.
# The regular expressions are evaluated against the plain file-name of the
# ISO-file. The file is converted if any of the given regular expressions
# match.
#
# If you want to specify more than one, ust add another isoRegExps-parameter
# (same name) below the current one.
#isoRegExps = [f|F]ringe

# This is the temporary directory which is used when makeMKV is working.
# Be sure it doesn't contain files named "title<NN>.mkv" (the program
# checks for any mkv-files starting with "title") since that would collide
# with the files makeMKV wants to make.
# Other than that you may chose any directory.
# It stands to reason for this directory to be on the same drive as the
# mkvDir, since the copy-process won't involve any real data-transfer this
# way.
tempDir = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/temp/

# This is the directory where the program will create the right directories
# in containing the resulting MKV-files.
mkvDir = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/new/

# This is a list of directories the program will look for already converted
# MKV-files in. The directories will be searched recursively.
# The mkvDir is in this list by default. No need to add it manually.
#
# If you want to specify more than one, just add another observeMkvDirs-
# parameter (same name) below the current one.
observeMkvDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/iso/
observeMkvDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/new/
observeMkvDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/temp/
observeMkvDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/Movies
observeMkvDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/Downloads/Movies
observeMkvDirs = /Volumes/My_Passport/Downloads/ISOs
#observeMkvDirs = //babylon5/Movies3/MOVIES
#observeMkvDirs = //babylon5/Movies3/FILMS

# If set to true, then all series are converted. If not present or set to
# false, all series are omitted.
convertShows = false

# If set to true, then all movies are converted. If not present or set to
# false, all movies are omitted.
convertMovies = true

# The location of your local makeMKV-installation. Be sure to contain the
# name of the runtime as well, not only the directory.
makeMkvCommand = /Applications/MakeMKV.app/Contents/MacOS/makemkvcon

makeMkvTempFileExtension = mkv
mkvFileExtension = mkv
isoFileExtension = iso

Thank you.

Hi! Long time no see. Sorry. I was pretty distracted by our game Throbax TD for which I'm currently implementing multiplayer... that's some stress I tell you...

I'm not sure I understand your question right. You have the path mkvDir = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/new/ in your config as target directory and all your movies are generated there as I see in your ls output. So from my point of view it seems just like it should be or am I missing something?

phathak commented 8 years ago

All of the movies are generated in the ~/bulkmakemkv/target directory. Where the script is located...

I'll definitely take a look at your game. Sounds like you put a lot of effort in this one.

Hmmm. I see... My first reaction was: But you tell it to do that. You say that the target folder is /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/new/ which is a relative path as far as I know. So that relative path is 'from the execution point of the jar', so to say... But now I see that /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/new/ IS an absolute path. So my program does some weird things. I'll check that for you.

As for the game: Cool. We've been on and off it for the last 4 years now. Finally we started early access on Steam. It's a tower-defense game and I'll be happy to provide you with a free Steam-key for the patience you've had with me the past year, if you send me an email (psilo@unterrainer.info) since I don't want to do that on Github :)

guFalcon commented 8 years ago

Hmmm. Could you look where your temp-dir gets created? It should be tempDir = /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/temp/ according to your config. Does THAT one work?

phathak commented 8 years ago

I already created it myself at this location but should I let the program create it by itself?

It can, but it doesn't have to. The temp-dir is only checked to be empty when a conversion starts (in order to prevent you from accidentally deleting a previous conversion that didn't finish properly). No. Just watch if the titlexx.mkv-files are generated there during conversion, that's all. That would be helpful.

guFalcon commented 8 years ago

Also: Please check if the CORRECT directories in the correct locations exist as well. Or are the directories in your target-dir the only ones my program creates?

guFalcon commented 8 years ago

I've pushed a new version. I corrected all the ambiguities present in the path-resolving part of the program and tested it on windows. I really hope that resolves your problems. Please try it.

Beware The jar-name has changed. I now use the maven-assembly plugin to automatically generate the jar. It's still in the target directory...

Start the program, as you would start any jar by typing:

java -jar bulk-makemkv-0.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar

or put these lines in a batch-file (should be more convenient):

java -jar bulk-makemkv-0.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar
pause

So I hope all is well, send an email so that I can send you the key for the game back and happy new year.

Psilo

phathak commented 8 years ago

So here's the output I have. I checked the created directories and the new and temp dirs are created at the right location /Volumes/My_Passport/BULKMKV/

Jup. You have to change your startup-file (it's a batch-file in windows) like I told you in my last reply (please read the last post, especially the part under the title 'BEWARE' ;).

cu, G.

phathak commented 8 years ago

It's weird because I did. Here's my sh file : 

cd ~/bulkmakemkv/target/
java -jar bulk-makemkv-0.2-jar-with-dependencies.jar

In any case, I'm starting it manually for testing purposes. I'm basically doing the same thing. I don't understand why it's not converting since it works when I paste the line manually...

Also, you should check at how you format special characters in OSX. I don't know about Windows, but when you want to type parentheses in OSX, you need to precede it with a backslash. Same as the space character. So instead of Vacation\ (2015) it would be Vacation\ \(2015\)

The log.err is empty btw.
