    mencoder Action crashes DTb

    This is picking up from this thread

    The problem is that DTb is erroring out immediately following the mencoder action.  When I run a Profile with mencoder (using WMV-Good profile) through the GUI, I get a "DTb stopped working" error message after mencoder completes.  It is the same if I run in quiet mode (I only used verbose mode to see if it was erroring out somewhere - by default I use quiet mode).  Mencoder works fine when run manually.

    The last few lines of the log file (with the mencoder Action not using "quiet" mode) are:

    Also, I tried running a Profile that contains only the mencoder Action, and the result is the same.  I am using 1.2.0.9 and the source is NTSC.

    Wow, I didn't know this is happenning.  Can you try launching mencoder from the command line?  Does it also have a problem from the command line?

    I did, and it works fine from the command line (sorry, I thought I had copied over everything from the other thread).  The only problem (as far as I can tell) is that, as soon as mencoder finishes, DTb crashes.

    Re: mencoder Action crashes DTb

    if you get a System.ArgumentNullException:
    Check the config of the Mencoder action and make sure the Pass 2 profile is set to "None".
    If it's blank, it will crash when run.

    I do, but when I set it to "None", it just hangs indefinitely.

    this will be fixed in the next rev of 1.2.0.9
