Core-i99/Codec-Graph

This variant doesn't work for me

Closed this issue · 7 comments

Hi,

while workin on my Guide for creating ALC Layout-IDs, I noticed your variant of Codecgraph supports Python 3 for macOS Monterey compatibility.

I tested your version in Catalina in python 3, trying to convert my Codec Dump, but it fails. The original version runs fine though.

Attached you find my Codec dump. Maybe you can test if it works for: codec_dump.txt.zip

If it does work, please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thank you.

I personally tested this on Monterey I think.
This evening I'll give it a try with a Mojave vm, I currently don't have a Catalina one.

Nice that you're writing a guide!

@5T33Z0 Your codec dump successfully converted on Monterey 12.4. (results attached)
I'll test it on Mojave later this evening.
output.zip

In the mean time: Can you maybe make a video of what happens when you run this tool?

Okay, thanks.

Since I a am not a dev, can you tell me the terminal commands you used, before I make a video?

The version I have also includes an executable of codecgrapher and 2 additional scripts: verbit.sh and this script.

I only have to double-click on the 2nd one and everything else works automatically. Maybe I have to adjust that for pyhon 3 as well?

cd into codec graph directory
Then python3 Codec-Graph.py

Also, I do have a separate branch which has a gui, I'm planning to let my github runner build an macOS app from it.

Wow, an app would be awesome! There are almost no apps available for AppleALC stuff so this would be cool.

Another thing: Do you have an idea why the arrows inside the visualizations all point to the right? I don't know why that is but they definitely do not represent signal flow. Do you think there's a way to make it use lines instead? I guess this is a graphviz setting?

I have an account. I don't quite how discord works, but I try adding you.

The issue was the terminal background being black, while the text the script prints is also black. So you wouldn't see anything.
I'm going to work on a GUI for Codec Graph later, once I finish this I'll close the issue.
