I love this software - too bad it's not more popular.

I'm using version .35.2. I selected "quick menu" and all was going quite well but near the end I got the following message "Menu file /tmp/todisc-work.0/animenu1-3.mpg not found. Spumux seems to have had problems". I'm not sure what to do. I have attached the log file.

Cheers! Richard

Sorry its been years since I looked at this software. Often errors are
caused by changes in command line options for backend programs. But the
log is not really giving much of a clue. You might try re-running with
-keepfiles if you didn't do that. The error line is:

[todisc]: Menu file /tmp/todisc-work.0/animenu1-3.mpg not found

so you might have a look at the saved files and see if that files is
created and not empty. Either way you could re-run the command in the
directory where the files are saved:

spumux spumux.xml < 1-3intro.mpg > animenu1-3.mpg

and see if you get better error message from the output.

cheers,

Sorry , I actually selected "switch menu" when I meant to select "quick menu". Of course no problem at all.

Cheers Richard

Forgot to add, I've installed all this on my Mint 9.3 machine without issue. I'm now doing this on Bohdi linux and having problems - thought I could speed all the encoding by putting on 2 computers.
