Windows11.When changing the video cover, the path is incorrect. #109
Comments
I have never tested this feature under Windows. I suspect that the use of So maybe I better add some additional logic so that a single letter plus Until then: Besides the workaround you've already mentioned you can also use the MSYS2 terminal. I can recommend that environment and its packaging anyways. |
Interpret a single letter plus colon as drive specification followed by the actual path instead of splitting it and considering the path the cover type. See #109
Implemented on master. Do you want a development build for Windows to test it out? So far I've only tested it under GNU/Linux (by creating a file called e.g. |
Sure! Thank you for your prompt fix. I'd appreciate it if you could provide a Windows development build for testing. |
I would like to ask why the parameters for paths, cover types, and descriptions are combined into one, instead of being set as separate parameters like --cover-back, --cover, --cover-front. Perhaps this could be the reason you mentioned, "it could potentially break backward compatibility." I'd like to understand the rationale behind this approach. I apologize for asking so many questions without actually contributing to the code modifications. However, due to my limited experience with C++ development, I might need some time in the future to try and assist with maintenance. |
Ok, I've just started a build.
Because the arguments for all fields are just following the
I mean if I would now change it to use a different separator that would break compatibility because if someone has a script using |
Thank you very much for your explanation. This indeed seems to be the quickest and most effective solution for now. I'm looking forward to the finalized build. |
Here's a development build: https://martchus.no-ip.biz/repo/arch/ownstuff-experimental/os/x86_64/mingw-w64-tageditor-qt6-3.9.0-1-any.pkg.tar.zst You'll have to pick the static version from that archive. |
Also thanks for reporting. I'm currently in the process of improving the tag editor here and there (don't expect any big changes) anyways so this kind of input is useful. |
First of all, I want to express my sincere gratitude to the creator for developing such a convenient tool!
As the title suggests, when I try to change the video cover, there is an issue with the path. When the 'cover' parameter is set with an absolute path that includes another disk drive number, it results in a failure to successfully retrieve the updated image. The following image serves as an example:
I have tried enclosing the 'cover' parameter with both double and single quotation marks, but the error remains the same:
The solution is to navigate to the location of the image file using the
cd
command and then specify it using a relative path. Here's an example:One intriguing aspect is that the "-f" option allows specifying the file using an absolute path, while the "cover" parameter cannot be specified using an absolute path. I'm unsure whether this is a bug, but I am interested in understanding the underlying cause. If this issue could be resolved, it would greatly assist me in efficiently processing a large number of files in batch.
