[RESOLVED] PBX_Recorder getting tables mixed up after 4 successfully recorded, and also backglass videos not being created


Recommended Posts

Greetings awesome developers, thanks for all you do! I have a 2 screen setup, no 3rd party add-ons, pinballx v6.11, ini attached, using VPX tables (VPX 10.8). 

My issue: I just downloaded and tried to run PBX_recorder V2.1. I selected to create everything but DMD. The script begins, and it gets through about 5 tables before I notice that tables that a table that was already opened seemed to pop back to the top of the stack and sure enough it recorded the fourth table twice, but the second time it was recorded and stored under the name of the table it thought it was recording. I tried this a few days ago with the same result around table 5. I stopped the process at table 6 because I saw it was having this problem. It seems to have trouble managing which table it on top. Is it supposed to close the table once recorded?

So four table videos were successfully created before I hit ESC because the wrong table came back to the top. It did create a table images, but it did not create any backglass videos as I specified for it to do. Sorry, I didn't check whether it created backglass images or not. Anyway, I notice the script opens the tables one by one but never closes them once done recording them. Not sure if that's a problem, but I think it would mean I would 100+ tables all open at the same time if the scripts runs it's course, but maybe that's fine?

Please attach the PBXrecorder.log file (should be in the same location as the pbxrecorder executable).

Can you also advise if you've used previous versions of pbxrecorder before without issue (so we know if this is something new introduced with v2.1), it should definitely close each table after recording it.

Let's also get the log.txt file which should be presented for all assistance requests. Thank you.

Thanks for the replies! Turns out I'm just not too smart. I ran it again as Administrator and it worked, it closed each table after recording. Maybe it didn't have the rights for the TaskKill without it?

.. or maybe you have vpx set to run as admin?

Glad it's sorted anyway :)

Just as a note you probably don't need to create videos and images, the front end will use videos if found first then look for images.
