OneEyedMan Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 I have a real silly request, but still I post it here under duress We use ImgBurn from an application with much success, it is a GUI which generates a IBB script, so the user will not forget important files when a DVD is created. However, once in a while, due to a corrupt image or disc, the following message pops up: "Keep your knickers on Harry what else can I say?!"
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 The translations files don't deal with hardcoded messages, just the text on the GUI windows. I think you're referring to the message when the file system parsing times out - which normally happens after 30 seconds.
LOCOENG Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 If you don't want to see the funny quotes go to Tools/settings/general and tick the box that reads "do not show funny quotes"
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 This is a different message loco, that option has no effect.
OneEyedMan Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 Is it correct that this message only occurs with faulty C'D/DVD's? But the bottom line is this message is hardcoded, and not easy to change. The application is packed with UPX or something like that I believe, so it is not possible for me to 'hack' this message:-( Any thought if you might be persuaded to change this message? If not, I will report that they just have to live with it.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 It's nothing to do with them being faulty or not - unless of course you mean unreadable discs? Discs with tens of thousands of files on them might also take longer than 30 seconds to parse. You can extend the timeout or turn it off if you like, just look in the settings. Which application is this with btw?
LOCOENG Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 This is a different message loco, that option has no effect. Sorry, haven't seen the Bob's yer unkle quote so I didn't know
OneEyedMan Posted May 9, 2008 Author Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) It is a web application with which to create a standardized project introduction for building projeccts, with information on building and safety regulations. It also includes some small movies, and is automatically created in 5 languages. The result is then burnt to DVD with ImgBurn, so it can be presented on a local PC (not yet with a DVD player). So it is important that some of the default files (especially the movies) already reside on the local PC where the DVD image is created, and that these are (automatically) included in this image. The name is (surprisingly) Project Introduction Creator. Could you point me to the timeout setting? The only settings with seconds I could find where to do with auto dialogs (ISOBUILD_VolumeLabelAutoYesTimeout and ISOWRITE_InsertNextDiscAutoOKTimeout). Or is this not present in version 2.3.2.0, but only in the 2.4 + versions? Edited May 9, 2008 by OneEyedMan
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 It's 'Parse File System Timeout' and it's on the 'General' tab in the settings. If you don't have that option then there's probably no timeout in your version... I don't remember when I implemented it exactly, sorry. You shouldn't be using 2.3.2.0 anyway
OneEyedMan Posted May 9, 2008 Author Posted May 9, 2008 Thanx, found it (in 2.4.1.0)! But your remark : If you don't have that option then there's probably no timeout in your version... I don't remember when I implemented it exactly, sorry. did make me wonder: if I do not have this option in my version, how did I get this message? Or was it a default back then?
