softworkz 3326 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) @Cheesegeezer I need to apologize. I wasn't aware that this was "your" plugin topic. I never considered or looked for that, because I had never subscribed to this topic (and I don't read "everything"). Actually I was under the assumption that we would still be talking in the topic where we had discussed MediaInfo options originally (https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/72953-add-dv-atmos-dtsx-hdr10plus-hlg-to-mediainfo-and-track-name/page/5/). From all Emby staff, probably nobody dislikes unrelated conversations more than I do, and not even the posts I made regarding ffprobe dovi output belong into this topic. I have split out all unrelated posts into a separate topic now: This topic should really be about your plugin - only! Sorry for the confusion. softworkz Edited June 17, 2022 by softworkz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softworkz 3326 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 A good software developer is not necessarily someone who knows a lot (about a specific area of development). Such knowledge allows allows you to work faster and more efficiently on a certain subject, but it's not that much important. Of course, general experience in sw development plays an important role and allows you to write code of higher quality and with low bug rates. That part can only be gained over time, and only when you pay attention to it. It's a matter of character I think: like people moving to a foreign country and having to learn a different language: some are permanently improving and after few years it's impossible to even notice that one isn't a native speaker. And there are others who stop learning after a minimum is achieved and keep making the same grammatical mistakes for the rest of their life, even though they've heard a zillion times how it would be right. First of all, software development is about learning. Being able to learn quickly, being flexible to adopt gained knowledge, make correct deductions and valid abstractions of problems and - not to forget - constant self-reflection are key factors. Unlike most other professions, there is no point where you have learned "it" and you just keep doing your work. In that case, you might be a coder, programmer, or sw engineer, but should you ever come to that point, your career as a developer would have ended (or never existed). So, learning is the key, "not knowing" is not a reason for embarrassment (while "knowing" but not acting accordingly is). When you have questions regarding plugin development, you can always PM me! softworkz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicDoubleM 93 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Congratulations! I swear I just discovered this one while adding something new. PCM-audiotracks, from DVDs, aren't invited to the party yet, right? And I have to report, that I seem to have problems with real time monitoring, since I yesterday removed the scheduled task. There is a HDR-SDR-task running, which takes a whiiiiiiiiile, so could it be that mediainfo doesn't get triggered because of that?

I ran both purposely on my main system to see if there were issues. I do feel that i may have got over excited about the exit codes and this may be the issue here. on the point of PCM’s can you share your json? are we looking at an aac pcm… because if its not adding anything to the mix then probably not worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neik 835 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) @Cheesegeezer, I had a deeper look at the logs and went through the processed movies one by one and it seems like all those movies exiting with "error 1" have already been processed previously in earlier testing. Might be related? I will let it run a bit longer and see how it behaves. I'll let you know how it goes on. Edit: Just let it run a little while longer and apparently there really is some sort of issue as it is not updating the tittles for me. So, it was more of a coincidence that it was processing the already processed files.

rbjtech 4223 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 So the emby error log is just passed from mkvpropedit - the 3rd party app that does all the changes. See below. I suspect it's permissions based (on your files) - so check those first. Maybe do a manual edit to check the titles can be changed. --- from https://mkvtoolnix.download/doc/mkvpropedit.html mkvpropedit(1) exits with one of three exit codes: 0 -- This exit code means that the modification has completed successfully. 1 -- In this case mkvpropedit(1) has output at least one warning, but the modification did continue. A warning is prefixed with the text 'Warning:'. Depending on the issues involved the resulting files might be ok or not. The user is urged to check both the warning and the resulting files. 2 -- This exit code is used after an error occurred. mkvpropedit(1) aborts right after outputting the error message. Error messages range from wrong command line arguments over read/write errors to broken files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is likely the issue - does the new version of mkvpropedit have the necessary permissions to update(write) to the MKV files ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should have, I guess, as it has the exact same permissions as the mediainfo binary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesegeezer 3086 Posted June 22, 2022 Author Share Posted June 22, 2022 Just use mkvtoolnix GUI and see if you can do it thru that. Will be much easier than getting involved in command line interfaces if you are not used to it. you can also check the file properties to see if it has a read only attribute associated with it. I don’t know linux but google might be your friend. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbjtech 4223 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 If it worked before and now after changing mkvpropedit it no longer works, then logic would suggest it's something to do with changing mkvpropedit .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really strange... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know linux but google might be your friend. Thought the same but the binaries mkvpropedit & mediainfo both have the exact same permissions and same group. Edit: Any chance you can provide me an older version than the available 1.0, just for me to test? Or maybe some more logging could be added?
