[chippy]

Using makemkv 1.6.14
and get popup error message "Application failed to initialise" and following output:

Code: Select all

makemkv
QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.

(process:1754): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_style_get: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

1.6.12 was fine (I skipped 13.)

Any help appreciated

[mike admin]

is console makemkvcon working?

@mike

well the help function works:

Code: Select all

makemkvcon
Use: makemkvcon [switches] Command [Parameters]

Commands:
  info <source>
      prints info about disc
  mkv <source> <title id> <destination folder>
      saves a single title to mkv file
  stream <source>
      starts streaming server
  backup <source> <destination folder>
      backs up disc to a hard drive

Source specification:
  iso:<FileName>    - open iso image <FileName>
  file:<FolderName> - open files in folder <FolderName>
  disc:<DiscId>     - open disc with id <DiscId> (see list Command)
  dev:<DeviceName>  - open disc with OS device name <DeviceName>

Switches:
  -r --robot        - turn on "robot" mode, see http://www.makemkv.com/developers

I don't/haven't used the console command before so beyond that I'm not sure what I should do next. My normal operation of the application is to ssh into my media box using the -X switch (to ssh) and then simply type 'makemkv'. Up 'til now it's worked just fine.

Is there some sort of switch I can add to makemkv to dump a debug log or similar that might help? In the meanwhile I got a whole heap of disks to get through some day

Thanks for the response btw.

Cheers

I have this working now. Compiled the packages again and it works! Can only think I missed some error on last compile, and system has had an update since then. Thanks anyway.

I get the same error message on Kubuntu 10.10, makemkvcon gives help message, but makemkvcon info /dev/sr1 only says "MakeMKV v1.6.16 linux(x86-release) started" and returns without showing anything.
