suxmovie quirks (on MacOS??)

[vlzi...@gmail.com]

Hello -
I am trying to teach myself Seismic Unix, and suxmovie does not seem to work.

A) If I use the example code, a window opens up, b

% suplane > junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=20 >> junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=15 >> junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=10 >> junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=5 >> junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=3 >> junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=2 >> junk1.su
% suplane | suaddnoise sn=1 >> junk1.su

suxmovie < junk1.su n2=32 title="frame=%g" loop=1  &

I get:
suxmovie: fgettr.c: bad first header

B) BUT - if I put all of those lines into a script file, it works, albeit with these statements:

suxmovie: ntr=0 inconsistent ! set ntr=(n2=32)*(n3=1), trace count required.

suxmovie: must have n3, counting traces ...

suxmovie: ntr=32 and trace count inconsistent! resetting ntr=256

/Users/vlzimmer/cwpsu/bin/xmovie: bclip=3 wclip=0

/Users/vlzimmer/cwpsu/bin/xmovie: bmin=0 bmax=255


C) ....  And if I try to run XSyncline, Ximage loads up with a nice cross-section, and there are numbers scrolling, but no movie - it stops with:

suxmovie: ntr=400 and trace count inconsistent! resetting ntr=48400

/Users/vlzimmer/cwpsu/bin/xmovie: bclip=1 wclip=-1


Any ideas of what might work?

Cheers,
Valerie

Did you solve the problem?

I have the same problem with the XSyncline script, I trying to edit the script to solve the problem

Hi Valerie,

Did you ever find the reason why XSyncline didn't work? I'm also trying to get the hang of Seismic Unix (under a Cygwin environment), but I get exactly the same results. I don't quite understand why the trace count (1199) doesn't add up to the amount input traces (400). Please let me know if you have any insights on this.

Cheers,

Roel
