The converters are gone!

Just tried again in the light of day. Still only one file. Interestingly it was the middle of three done.

I just finished another marathon svn checkin. Changes:

Rippers should work
Settings sheet for Compact Discs should work
Preferences cleaned up
Added format specifiers to iTunes playlists
Sparkle automatic updating

Once krmathis has posted another svn build, testers would be appreciated!

I'm on it, but building a fresh rev. 904 failed like this:

I forgot to add the Security framework to the project file. This time I actually made a Release build to make sure everything would link OK, and it did. So hopefully we'll be in business now!

Revision 912 compiled successfully.
I have uploaded the build to the usual place...

Still no good at handing all files off to Tag. Plus, now I get this error

*** -[NSCFArray objectAtindex:] index (1) beyond bounds (1)

These were the same files I'd been using to test the Max>Tag flow. It occurred on the third of the three.

Converter not working for me on G5 iMac.
As soon as I start to convert, Max drops off activity monitor.

I haven't tried with other codecs, but when ripping, Max stops working when it begins to encode to MP3. It doesn't freeze up, but all the files to be encoded are kept in queue.

I didn't do any exhaustive testing, but with revision 982 I was able to rip a disc, and as each track finished ripping the encoder queued it and started correctly. This was for MPEG Audio (AAC) and MP3.

Encoding still isn't working for me on r982. Ripping works fine, but encoding doesn't start. The window doesn't say they're queued, but "Progress" for all of them remains at 0%. Console doesn't say anything and the log just logs the rips and says nothing about the encoding. This is for AACs and MP3s. I haven't tried other encoders.

Can you try deleting ~/Library/Preferences/org.sbooth.Max.plist and see if that helps?

I experienced the same problems as shanecavanaugh, khead and Fuga: the converter window gets filled with files but the conversion doesn't start. I trashed the prefs file - no result. I trashed it again and this time left the "custom output file naming" unchecked and it worked fine (with paranoia, to aiff and alac). I have a iMac G5. Doing a test afterwards creating a custom output file name triggered the problem again.

Hope I could be of some use...

Thanks all for your effort and your time, I'm enjoying Max very much.

As reported in another thread trashing my prefs wa the solution to getting the .(null) files.

I found the problem and fixed it in svn. It was, as reported, an issue with custom naming. Thanks for helping with this one!

Just a note - I downloaded the 995 build of Max and used it to rip a few CDs that just arrived from Amazon. It worked pretty well, except that it seems that when I rip a track over 15 mins long and convert to MP3, Max throws up an error dialog when it's finished encoding. The resulting file seems OK, but the error message is jarring (something about trying to put nil into an NSCFDictionary, I think).

It's kind of late right now and my ripping is done for the evening, so I can't reproduce it right now, but if nobody else can reproduce it, I'll see what I can do about getting screen-shots and the like.
