I'm on Gentoo - config worked fine.
First Problem: The auto-detection of ProjectX. My ProjectX comes as a
jar that needs to be called from java. I'm sure I could have put
together a shell script that mimics the "projectx" executable the
script wants to see, but being a lazy guy, I just hard-coded the
correct command into the script...
DVD creation went well (escept for the flipped thumbnails, but I found
the flag for that), next snag I hit was my apache user not being
allowed to write DVDs. I'll fix that another day - calling growisofs
manually to write out the DVD produced a fine looking result (except
for the thumbs, but that should be taken care of now).
As soon as I get the permissions issue sorted out, this will be my new
default way of burning DVDs from Myth. Thanks a lot for your effort!
I am also happy to report back to the list that backchannel Martin and I
have sorted out my system problems. First I had some unstable releases
loaded and downgraded to the stable versions. Next I also had access
permissions to fix on /dev/dvd. Finally we found that I've been recording
all my shows at 480x480 for some reason so I had to change that back to
720x480. This morning I was able to create a working DVD with chapter menus
from my KnoppMyth machine. Thank you Martin for your scripts and your help
and patience.
Jim (yea! 8^)
