ffmpegx can't find Progress.app

[jagon]

Hi there,

Every time I try to launch a job, I obtain this Applescript error:

System:Applications:ffmpegX.app:Contents:Resources :Progress.app introuvable. (-43)

ffmpegx is working fine when I specify the soft to open a terminal window instead of Progress, but i cannot run any job performed by provided Tools (demux, join, etc.)

I'm running X 10.4.11, ffmpegx 0.0.9y, registred and experimented user !

When you're asked to locate the progress.app, simply find and select the FFmpegX.app in your applications folder. That seemed to solve the problem for me.

Good luck,
PS

System:Applications:ffmpegX.app:Contents:Resources :Progress.app

major, if you're reading this, this could be a clue why this happens with 0.0.9y.
System:Applications:ffmpegX.app:Contents:Resources :Progress.app
is not /Applications/ffmpegX.app/Contents/Resources/Progress.app
Can it be that it is looking in the /System folder and can't find Progress.app because of that?

How is your harddisk named? Any special character? Is it named "System"?

Ah! Before I discovered this forum, I took a different, perhaps convoluted approach:

• right-clicked on ffmpegX.app and opened its contents.
• opened the Resources folder and located the Progress.app.
• made an alias of Progress.app.
• moved Progress.app.alias outside the app folder.
• selected Progress.app.alias.

I'm not sure it's any better than the other steps but it worked.

Good job figuring that one out.
