Identifier Not Valid Error

[bturkus]

hey

on the latest version of vrecord (2019-07-22), we're seeing an "Error: Not a valid option, select a valid number" message, no matter what we name our identifiers. Is anyone else seeing this?

It’s generated by the _lookup_choice() function:

vrecord/vrecord

Lines 923 to 925 in 0f6d3ed

	# others
	"Yes"|"Yes, after recording"|"Yes, concurrent with recording"|"No") ;;
	*) _report -w "Error: Not a valid option, select a valid number." ; return 1 ;;

Hi, @bturkus, it means that a selection you made in unexpected. Can you recreate the issue? If so please send a screenshot of the gui before you start the recording or provide more of the command line output.

here's a screenshot of the GUI pre-error. I cannot figure out where I've gone wrong. Thanks for looking into it!

can you run cat ~/.vrecord.conf and send the result (censor if needed).

This is related to running FFV1_SLICE_CHOICE through the _review_option function.

I've had this issue too today. Is there a fix I need to run this end?

Many thanks :)
