General Error or Crash using menu button on chapter playlists

This is my first complex project in 2.0 - I needed to have approx 120 clips playable individually from a series of still menus. Given the 99 timeline limit, I created a number of timelines and placed batches of clips on them. I'm then using individual chapter playlists to reference each clip. The chapter playlist is linked from a menu button.
When using the menu remote button when a chapter playlist is playing, I either get an 'abnormal condition' error, or occasionally, Encore crashes with no message at all. Tried this with no menus, timelines and playlists open but same errors.
More detail:
PAL 16:9 project
28 timelines
65 chapter playlists
15 still menus
approx 120 mpv clips and associated wavs (mpv encoded with cinemacraft encoder sp)
Settings for one of the clips giving problems:
Timeline - end action not set, menu remote - return to last menu, all ops permitted, no chapter end actions
Chapter playlist - end action - return to last menu, override not set, menu remote - return to last menu, all ops permitted.
I think I can stop the errors and crashes if I disable the menu remote button - but I don't really want to do this.
Any ideas what's going on? Is it a bug(S)?
Thanks,
Paul.

Paul.
The trouble I had was the "Abnormal Condition" error when hitting the menu remote button in preview.
There was no problem with Prev/Next buttons though.
I tried burning a disc too, just to check if it would burn true & just played up in preview - but no dice. What happened was the player froze up solid after pressing the menu remote.
I did create another project where the chapter playlists numbered around 28 from a single timeline, and this actually worked as it should do, so I suspect an issue in Encore's internal stacks where this is all addressed.
I had to use a different application in the end.
I believe the reason yours is still failing is simply because despite having 5 timelines, you are still well over the number of chapter playlists that seem to be available.
It's a nasty bug - but apparently a fix is in the works. Hopefully we will see this as a maintenance release - we got these with both earlier versions (1.01 from 1.0, and 1.5.1 from 1.5) so I am hoping it will happen.
There are a couple of issues I have noticed - although this is so far the only one I cannot work around in my projects.
One thing has just occurred to me that might help you here.
Instead iof using a chapter playlist to reference each clip, save these for multiple clips that need to be accessed, and from your chapter menu, just point directly to the clip in question.
Set an end action for each clip to revert back to the menu that called it, and create just a single chapter playlist for a "Play All" situation.
This will greatly reduce the number of chapter playlists you are running - and should do the job for you.

  • Error Message when using menu buttons in IE but not chrome

    Hi.
    My recently uploaded site has an issue when using the menu buttons anywhere on the site in Internet Explorer but not on my mac using chrome? I get this error message come up on screen which takes three clicks to go away  MuseJSAssert: Error calling selector function:TypeError: Object doesn't support property or method . Then if I click anything else it pop ups again. Any ideas how to get rid of this? I have tried re-uploading the muse files but the same happens. I even tried uploading the files from a different exported frm muse folder as I saw had worked for someone else on here but no difference? Any help much appreciated.

    You may get an error that iPage are sorting when opening too, just delete the /root1 in the address bar to see the site?
    Thanks
    Gav

    Hello,
    I am only getting the MuseJSAssert error on the contact page of your site when viewed in Internet Explorer.
    And as I can see you have used a webform from Jotforms which I suspect might be creating issues here.
    I would suggest you to remove the form  once and then upload your website again. if it starts working fine then get the Embed code of your form again from Jotforms and insert it again to check if it works fine or not.
    Please let us know the results of the testing.

  • Adobe Pro 9.0 crashes on menu button clicks in Citrix

    This bug is occuring while using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0 using Citrix MetaFrame Presentation server as a remote application. I have already posted this on the Citrix forums, but it might be worth a shot posting here to see if anyone can help.
    This may sound like an oddball problem, and it is, but Adobe Acrobat 9.0  crashes whenever you click on any of the quick menu options. We have  found a few ways around this issue, but some of the features eventually
    bring you to a command that as soon as you click on it, the program crashes.
    There is no error message, the program just disappears. I am able  to run Adobe Pro just fine on the console, with all of the buttons  working normally. But when accessed through the MetaFrame Presentation Server, it seems like the connection isn't functioning at 100%. Sometimes even right-clicking on a certain box will close the program.
    One specific example, (the reason I can no longer dodge the problem) is the "Combine PDFs" feature. Obviously, clicking the "Combine" menu button will crash the program. But the same action is accessible  through the file menu. However once you have that command open, the  "Add File" button is the only way to select which files you wish to  combine, and this button crashes the program. Now that I have no choice  being that there is a feature our users need but cannot use, I am  posting this question because my need is dire.
    I have done many hours of research on this issue, and haven't had any luck. I've already tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Pro, making sure it has the latest updates, etc. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

    frstrsystemI make a fix, here it is:
    1) I launch acropro 9 on the server, I go to the view->toolbars->tasks menu to  the "tasks" toolbar (which cause the crash).
    2) on the server, run regedit and go to current user\software\adobe\adobe acrobat\9.0 and export this hive on a file like acrobat9_user.reg
    3) create a acro9pro.cmd file with
    regedit /S n:\scripts\acrobat9pro_user.reg
    @start "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\" Acrobat.exe
    save this file on the server
    publish your app and call the CMD instead of the acrobat file
    trick; you can map drive into the cmd so that user can access network shares and not only the server on.

  • How to use menu button on apple remote with mac mini

    I purchased a late 2012 mac mini and the silver remote. The remote automatically opens iTunes, plays and pauses songs, adjust the volume, and skips forwards or backwards just fine. I had no trouble linking it the the Mac Mini either. So we have established it is working and comunicating fine with my Mac. My question is: what the heck is the "menu" botton for and can I use it with my Mac Mini? I'm using OS X 10.9.2.

    The Menu button does nothing

    There are apps that will help using the remote. See:

  • Disabling "Application Error" to restart using restart button in sxmb_moni

    Hi Experts,
    I have a scenario of JDBC to inbound Proxy.In this we have created Fault message type to capture any error.The requirement is to disable the option of Restart in SXMB_MONI for application error generated with Fault message.We have done coding for generating application error in inbound proxy code.Looking for a quick reply.
    I am looking for disabling the "Application Error" generated from Fault message of inbound proxy to "Resart" using Resart button in SXMB_moni of Application system ECC.what I am referring to is how to disable u201Crestartu201D (not resend) of the messages in SXMB_MONI if they have errors.
    For example, the interface to load some entries calls a proxy which may load some messages successfully and some may result
    in errors. This would appear in the SXMB_MONI with application errors with restart capability. If the user restarts the message it will post the entries again which were successfully posted earlier. We would like to prevent this from happening.
    I have gone through the below links.But no luck.Please suggest me if anyone know the solution/hint for this.
    Proxy framework: Catch CX_AI_SYSTEM_FAULT
    Re: SXMB_MONI - Message Status - Automatic Restart
    /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/11/29/xi-how-to-re-process-failed-xi-messages-automatically

    I do not think you could do that as Asyn messages are always restartable. May be you should look at changing the proxy code so that it does not through application errors but instead would update a Ztable with list of items need to be reprocessed. And this can be sent to the JDBC system as reprocess request.

  • How to run a vi without using menu button on top

    i got to execute or run the labview program without using the menu button.There should be a button on front panel clicking on to it must run the vi.

    Hello, i am also new to labview but i experienced that you can use
    a while loop for this.
    You need to connect while loop with an boolean button,
    so everything which is included within the while loop will start only if
    the boolean button is "True".
    best regards

  • Muse page content "jumps" when using menu button

    I Created a simple portfolio website in Adobe Muse. Two pages (projects and contact) and for both using the same underlaying stramien page (don't know the English word for that). I added a menu widget to navigate between the two pages. Works fine, but whenever I use the menu button the page content (text and/or pictures) make a little vertical jump before they are in their right position. Obviously this little "jump" is not like it is supposed to be. The website is not yet published or online, cause it's not finished yet, but the problem occurs when I preview what I've made so far.
    What could be the cause of this problem and how can I repair it ??

    are you using Chrome?
    try loading my page, www.stacystechpubs.com using Chrome.
    Then you see a bar of menu items across the page (home, who am I, terms,...) try clicking on one, then the next one, then the next one. You'll see the box 'Stacy's Tech Publications' jumps when you click on a link.
    If you still aren't sure what I mean I need to take a screen capture video and upload it.

  • How do you set the menu button for a playlist?

    I have a "Play All" playlist that I want to return to the main menu (when the menu button on a DVD remote is pressed). Right now, it's going to one of my sub menus. I can't figure out why this is happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the responses.
    My "Play All" playlist is not a button on a menu. It is actually the "First Play" of my DVD. I want the user to be able to hit the menu on their remote and then go to the main menu. What's happening is the menu button is going to a sub menu. I find it frustrating that you cannot set the remote button options for a playlist. If this can't be done, is there at least a way to set my main menu screen as my "top menu"? I don't want to set all of my timelines to the main menu. If I were to set it that way, all of the clips from the sub menus would go back to the main menu (when the menu remote button is pressed).

  • Error message "F" using Menu Builder

    I have created two movies, saved them as .cp files and also
    exported them as EXE files. I inserted the the EXE versions as
    Items into a MenuBuilder project. I save that project as an .mpg
    file and exported it as an EXE file as well. What I wanted to do
    was send this project as an e-mail to an associate. When they open
    it (Lotus Notes) they get a pop-up box that is labeled "Error" and
    the only description is the letter F. An OK click box closes the
    pop-up. My question is, can I send an exe movie in an exe proejct
    so a user can run it without having to access an .swf file? any
    help is appreciated, thanks!

    Hi [email protected]
    The reason for the F error sounds like you only shipped a
    single file. The MenuBuilder .EXE file. From what you are
    describing, it sounds like you are fundamentally misunderstanding
    how these work. The .EXE produced from MenuBuilder will not include
    the other Captivate movies inside it. You must ship those as well.
    So you E-Mail the three .EXE files, your user saves them all to the
    same folder, then the MenuBuilder should work.
    Hopefully this helps... Rick

  • Re-linking menu buttons to chapter marker

    Hi
    I've imported my movie (with chapter markers) from iMovie to iDVD, but for one of the scene selection buttons I wanted a still photo as opposed to moving pictures. So I dragged a jpeg to the position and replaced the button. However when I came to play the DVD, that button now no longer links to the movie, and when pressed just shows the still picture. Is there any way I can re-establish the link from the button to the chapter marker, or is it gone for good? (Please don't tell me I have to start from scratch and re-import the movie again!)
    Thanks for any help anyone can offer

    There was a Topic here a few days ago about doing what you tried. Might look around.

  • Getting general error when saving site using "create PDF from"

    I'm using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.0.0 for Mac, trying to save websites. This started working fine, but I had to shut down in the middle of a site being saved. Now when I try to save a site  using Web Capture/create PDF from I get a "general error, nothing was saved". What do I need to do, remove, replace, reinstall or whatever to get this feature working again?
    Also can anyone tell me how to set the feature that saves web pages with the headers and footers showing date, time, URL, page title, etc. I often use the print feature (save to PDF) and up until a day or so ago it always saved with those headers and footers. Now they're missing, which is what prompted me to try saving entire sites, above. I remember setting these a long time ago and being able to choose what went on the left, right,header and footer, but I cannot find those settings now.
    Thanks,
    Michele

    Well, after downloading Applejack, I am completely confused. I'm not sure I understand what will happen if I do any of these steps: see 3a.. "clean out all cache files including the Launch Services database and any cached User Pictures". What kinds of things will I lose? Can I choose only the Acrobat cache files?  I don't want to have to spend hours or days resetting things as I'm in the middle of a project with a close deadline. I also don't really understand fully what will happen with all the other things they discuss.  The instructions say (I just copied and pasted these):
    3.  Auto mode: You can let the script run through its tasks automatically by typing 'applejack auto'. If you want the machine to automatically restart at the end of its tasks, use 'applejack auto restart'. You can also tell the computer to shut down automatically at the end by using the command line 'applejack auto shutdown'.
    3a. Deep Auto mode: If you want to let AppleJack clean out all cache files, including the Launch Services database and any cached User Pictures, use 'applejack AUTO' instead. Use this if you still have problems booting after running AppleJack already.
    4.  Interactive mode: To run through just one task, or to run the script manually, type 'applejack' and then choose tasks from the menu. Running the script in interactive mode has the benefit of giving you options for working with user level cache and preference files, not just the default system level caches and preferences. To select an option, type the highlighted number or letter associated with the action, and then hit return. Whenever you enter a choice in AppleJack, you will need to hit return for that choice to take effect.
    4.  Corrupted preference files are moved into a directory that will mirror the original preference directory, with (Corrupt) added to the directory name. For example, corrupt preferences files found in ~/Library/Preferences will be moved to ~/Library/Preferences (Corrupt). After running AppleJack, you'll probably want to take a look at them (and most likely throw out those folders). As of version 1.4.2, AppleJack now creates a copy of the directory tree inside the (Corrupt) folder so that if any files were deeply nested inside the original preference folder, they will be placed in an identical directory hierarchy in the new (Corrupt) folder. This way, if for any reason you would want to move a preference file back, you know where it should go.
    6.  AppleJack has a primitive logging mechanism. It writes a journal of most of its activity to /var/log/AppleJack.log. AppleJack will automatically reset the log the next time you run it, if the file should ever reach a size somewhat over 500k.
