Be Sweet--> Batch Convert VOB (audio only) to MP#

[ewingr]

I can convert VOB files one by one with no problem. But when I try batch mode, I get an error :

Error 32: No input-data was found (wrong substream?)

I use the same settings that work when I do it one by one. Then I open the Batch Window, and drag and drop the VOBs in, and press the BeSweet's List->Multiple MP3s, or even the BeSweet's List->Single MP3 for only one file, and I get that error.

I've tried different settings in the batch window that comes up as well.

Any ideas? I ahve searched Doom9 and her for Guides on Batch with BeSweet, but don't see anything.

Thanks

for %%f in (*.VOB) DO (BeSweet.exe -core^( -input "%%f" -output "%%~nf.mp2" -logfile BeSweet.log ^) -shibatch^( --rate 48000 ^) -toolame^( -m s -b 192 -e ^))

Something like the above. Run it and it should process all VOB's in a given directory. Use for /R if you want it to process sub dirs.

You probably need to change the above for VOB input, I have never use VOB's as input so I have no idea the exact commands.

Thanks. I can give it a try. But, if it needs changing, I don't know how much luck I'll have. I have never used command line syntax. I've been using the GUI, and that is what's failing for batch. I might also check to see if there is a newer version than I have. Maybe this one has a bug.

I'll post back my results.

(I even need to figure out how to enter a command line vs gui )

[celtic_druid]

The GUI lists the commandline, so if the VOB input has any extra commands like specifying which stream, etc. you should be able to see them.

If you save it as a batch file (puttting the full path to BeSweet with "" if it has spaces, etc.) then you should be able to just place it in the directory where the VOB's are and run it.

VOBs are not audio files.

[ewingr]

They contain audio, and BeSweet does extract audio from them.
