Tempdir on non-existable drive cause hanging mencoder.exe

Post by realbase » Sun Nov 29, 2009 3:45 am

Because of having a small-sized ssd-disk, i use a removable harddisk as place to store the temp-file/workdir. But when this drive is not available (and still have the workdir pointed to the removable harddisk), MediaCoder doesn't give a fault. It only tells me that there was 'a' error on transcoding files. Then, when i open taskmanager, i see the mencoder.exe hangs at 100% cpu.

When closing down all processes and remount my external drive, restart MediaCoder, then transcoding files will succeed.

Operating system: Vista
