[dvd::rip] Wrong title being transcoded

Subject: [dvd::rip] Wrong title being transcoded

Hi.

I've been using transcode for a few good years now, and I'm generally
happy with it :)

However, after upgrading to the latest (0.98.2 for Gentoo, as of today)
on one of my Gentoo boxes, it started doing something that is driving me
crazy: whenever I transcode from the command line (ie. "dvdrip -f
transcode -t {title} {project_file}"), I get a very unusual result. Look
at the log file:

$ dvdrip -f transcode -t 4 ../projects/myproject.rip

=== log file === ->

done.
Tue Jan 30 11:38:41 2007        Transcode video - title #5, pass 1: 20%
done.

<- === log file ===

In the meantime, I'm now specifying "n - 1" whenever I want to transcode
title "n", but it just doesn't feel right. I don't know if something
will be done incorrectly or if I can "trust" the output at the same
level as with previous versions (none of which exhibited this
behaviour). Something worth mentioning is that while it's transcoding
the title "n", the GUI shows up the "correct" (considering the command
line option, "n - 1") title, so the transcoding being done doesn't
actually match what the GUI shows.

There's another thing that "stopped" working: automatically closing the
project and ending the (dvdrip) process once transcoding for the
specified title has finished. Hence, I have to manually close down the
program for the next title to be transcoded (I usually prepare several
titles and then use a "for .. do .. done" block to trigger transcoding
of all the titles at once).

One thing to consider is that transcoding without specifying the title
does indeed work for the last selected title, as "advertised".

I'm not sure whether this issue would go away by downgrading or not, and
I'm a little bit worried that loading project files with previous
versions of the program would generate dodgy/unexpected results and/or
corrupt the project file.

Did anyone experience something (remotely) similar to this? Any ideas on
how to fix it?

Best regards,

   Ezequiel
