#11704 closed Bug Report - General (fixed)
MythArchive animated menus: thumblist does not define thumbnail videos.

Description
As a one-off I wanted custom chapter points. Usually I never look at them. The non-animated ones look fine, and chapter selection works.
mythburn.py, line 3186, --thumblist < starttime, which looks (to me) like a constant here - although the thumbnail videos don't all look the same. My log has an exit-status error here, too.

log with mythburn.py patched to show commands generated:
22:51:44 Using user defined thumb images - 00:00:44,00:11:46,00:22:47,00:33:52,00:44:52,00:55:54,01:06:52,01:17:54 22:51:44 mytharchivehelper -q -q --createthumbnail --infile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/stream.mv2" --thumblist '0' --outfile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/preview/preview-i0-t%1-f%2.jpg" --framecount 250 22:51:48 mytharchivehelper -q -q --createthumbnail --infile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/stream.mv2" --thumblist '661' --outfile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/preview/preview-i1-t%1-f%2.jpg" --framecount 250 22:51:53 mytharchivehelper -q -q --createthumbnail --infile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/stream.mv2" --thumblist '1322' --outfile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/preview/preview-i2-t%1-f%2.jpg" --framecount 250 22:51:59 mytharchivehelper -q -q --createthumbnail --infile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/stream.mv2" --thumblist '1983' --outfile "/home/John/arctmp/work/1/preview/preview-i3-t%1-f%2.jpg" --framecount 250
... and so on. Thumblist sequence is 0, 661, 1322, 1983, 2644, 3305, 3966, 4627; this seems to be the autogenerated one.

How can it be changed to being defined by the thumblist?

This patch has worked for me. User-generated markers have the format u'01:06:52', auto-generated markers don't have the 'u'. I don't know if this is intentional. Both seem acceptable.

I think this patch, which does work, ought to be accompanied by a sanity check; thumb markers increasing, first > 0, last at least 10 s before EOF. If not true dvdauthor will probably fail. The check could and should be done much earlier, and the thumblists ought to be non-volatile in case of job failure. FRWOP, I'm afraid. Just a warning.

Extract from progress.log. code 34 is probably spurious (#11547) and I suppose 661 might be a node identifier. Only one instance of this message in the log, triggered by the status failure.
