Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.2) Installed from: Mandriva RPMs OS: Linux Kipi plugin "create MPEG slideshow" fails with digikam 0.8.0 and kipi-plugins-0.1.0-0.rc1 The problem is probably in kipi, not in digikam. This is stock digikam and kipi as provided in Mandriva 2006.0. The error message is: images2mpg --with-gui -f DVD -n PAL -d 10 -c 000 -T /home/milos/tmp/kde-milos/kipi-mpegencoderplugin-29182/ -M /usr/bin -I /usr/bin -o "/home/milos/Documents/output.mpg" -i "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica 3/pict1774.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica 3/pict1775.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica 3/pict1776.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica 3/praktica_bez_brasny.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica 3/praktica_komplet.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica 3/praktica_otevrena.jpg" ----------------------------------------------- Initialising...

Since you're a mandriva user you can read also: http://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=17555 i released a patch in cooker, not in 2006 by now. Anyway by the end of this mounth we should release a new kipi-plugin version that has a fixing for that (follow the related bugs). And that version will be uploaded on kipi site with a mandriva 2006 package. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 109739 ***

hmmm, you should at least translate it in english, since i cannot understand German :( > I try out : http://home.arcor.de/chrhoffmann/images2mpg.html > This solution crashed KDE so I had to start it again. Anyway which version of kipi-plugins are you using? Which solution did you try? The problem is fixed by now and you have to configure the plugin from its guy, or if you use the script stand alone, look at the help command the -S flag is included by now. Regards, Angelo
I use Kipiplugin "create MPEG Slideshow 0.1.2 KDE 3.5.1 Level "a" Suse 10.1 Digikam 0.8.1. The solution is discriptes under http://home.arcor.de/chrhoffmann/images2mpg.html The autor said I had to change the skript o "images2mpg" The only possibility to configure mpeg slideshow is to set the path to "imageMagick" and "mjpegtools". The path is setting right but it dosen't work The meeage of the programm is: "Encoding image files... Images encoding (%) : 0 [0 INFO: [yuvscaler] yuvscaler 1.8.0 (15-02-2004) is a general scaling utility for yuv frames INFO: [yuvscaler] (C) 2001-2004 Xavier Biquard <xbiquard@free.fr>, yuvscaler -h for help, or man yuvscaler Images encoding (%) : 0 [1 **ERROR: [yuvscaler] Could'nt read YUV4MPEG header!" I have no idea what I can do. Regards Stefan

Dear Angelo, thanks for your help. I will update untill I find the newest version on packmann. Stefan
I have libkipi0-0.1.4 and kipi-plugins-0.1.2. The following command line creates a perfect slideshow: images2mpg -f SVCD -d 5 -S 420mpeg2 -o MyPortfolio.mpg -t 4 -i pict177*.jpg But when I use digikam, the result is always this crash: THE COMMAND LINE IS : images2mpg --with-gui -f DVD -n PAL -d 10 -c 000000 -T /home/milos/tmp/kde-milos/kipi-mpegencoderplugin-24487/ -M /usr/bin -I /usr/bin -o "/home/milos/Documents/output.mpg" -i "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica/pict1774.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica/pict1775.jpg" "/home/milos/blbiny/fotoaparaty/praktica/pict1776.jpg" ----------------------------------------------- Initialising...

again this bug is fixed and it is a duplicate fo 109739, follow the instructions there: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109739#c57 That means that default behavior is the old one, this should change in future. If the script works it means the plugin is ok and the problem is in yuor digikam configuration. Regards Angelo *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 109739 ***
OK, you are right, setting chroma mode in the Create MPEG slideshow to "420mpeg2" fixes this issue. I did not notice the new chroma option at first. Thank you.
digiKam has a new Video Slideshow tool based on QtAV and ffmpeg which do not have this problem. Gilles Caulier
