No output

After pressing "process all" the percentage under "chapter #" shoots right up to 100% immediately and there's no output.

Changing output directories makes no difference.

What's going on?

Same here. Seems broken on Ubuntu 18.04.

I had the same issue and looked a bit into the problem. Toggling the --verbose option from the command line shows a problem with how sox is called and a look into the source code reveals that it can be fixed easily. A quick test shows that this is the fix. I was about to make a pull request when I saw that there is already a PR for the same issue from 2015 (see #3) . As there is no response in 5 years now, maybe its time for a fork?

@FMorsbach , thanks for the solution. I’m going to implement this ASAP. I think a fork is definitely appropriate here as @crabmanX might not be with us anymore.

UPDATE: @FMorsbach, still nothing. Just jumps right to 100% with no output. The baseclasses.py file in the src folder have been fixed though. I suppose that wasn't the issue.

It seems that there isn't a single m4b making tool anywhere on the internet that works for linux. A shame.

Did you also install it again? So running python setup.py install --optimize=1 ? Because it does work for me.

FMorsbach avatar Apr 03 '20 20:04 FMorsbach

Yes, completely deleted the original and reinstalled with the pull request. I checked the baseclasses.py files to be sure that it was different (it was).

Nothing doing.

Thanks for this thread. I had this same issue. I was able to use Sonic-Y3k's fork and got it to work for me.

I finally did get it to work for me after I used the hint about the —verbose mode. That made me realize that it didn’t work with files saved with a variety of sample rates. So I just made it all uniform and it ran fine.
