GenVid Error

[Robert Fitak]

Dear Biotrack Team,

I have been learning to use your software in order to track movements of fish in a maze, and have had much success in generating the data needed (the data in the BTF format).  However, I am running into errors when I try and generate a new .mov file from the original video file and the btf data using GenVid.

In summary, when using the GUI for GenVid, everytyhing works fine and I can see the BTF overlay on the video.  However, when I export the video, the program collapses upon completion and the resulting video (.mov) file is not playable in any software.  I repeated the export using the command line version of GenVid, and the same result occurred.  Here are the command and the error messages:

 ./GenVid \
   ../SHAD_PRACTICE/output30.mov \
   ../SHAD_PRACTICE/shad30sec/ \
   tmp.mov \
   -tr -tsize 900 -trs 2 -tcol \
   -ar

Qt has caught an exception thrown from an event handler. Throwing
exceptions from an event handler is not supported in Qt. You must
reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there.

I am using the virtual machine provided from your website, so there should not be any issues with the compilation of the software. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I have also attached a brief video just quickly reproducing the problem for both the GUI and command line.

Thanks,

Bob
