Help: Programming error

Post by Malefalitiko »

Hello, i have recently starter to use DCP-o-matic to export mp4 files from DCPs. They sent me an encrypted DCP and sent me the KDM as well. I have no problems playing the DCP on the player but then i try to export video files, once the export has ended i receive an error that says "Programming error at ../src/lib/ffmpeg_file_encoder.cc:399" . I am using windows 11 and DCP-o-matic version 2.16.66 git 2417eb677f

Could you please install this version and try again? It will probably still fail, but should give a more informative error message.

It should be fine, but if you are making/using KDMs I would strongly suggest that you have a backup of DCP-o-matic's configuration (Tools -> Export preferences...)

That's good! Though I didn't really fix anything in that version (just made an error more informative) so maybe you'll see the problem again - let us know if so!
