Program window closes when clicking buttons (tests done on Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04, with all program versions from 1.5 onwards) about pytranscriber HOT 13 CLOSED

Did you try running the pyTranscriber-gnome40-wayland version or just the default one? That special version was compiled on a Ubuntu 22.04 running Gnome so it should be more compatible...

This version I hadn't tried yet, I installed it and it worked with a few tweaks:

• I changed the permissions of the files in the installation folder from "root" to my user;

• I manually copied the program shortcut to the desktop;

• Any sequence I follow to do the transcript is working without errors (I need to click the "Output Location" button every time, otherwise the window closes).

  As a suggestion, at least for me it would be very useful if the program supported other audio formats, for example ogg and opus (I don't know if there are limitations of AutoSub, if that's the way to continue using it in .mp3, but it's great).

Thank you very much for your effort to help, if you need any more information just ask me, congratulations and success with your project!!!

Thanks for the report... could you please try to run the app from the terminal window and send me the output you get there when it crashes?

Of course, following messages from terminal:

Please try installing the following package and see if the problem continues (solution from https://askubuntu.com/questions/1392138/problem-with-pygame-libgl-error-failed-to-load-driver-swrast):

sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri

from pytranscriber.

Thanks for help.
The package is already installed, in the latest version available in the repositories (22.0.5)

from pytranscriber.

Did the previous suggestion work?
If not how about running the following command from the terminal and then running pyTranscriber?
export MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=i965
/opt/pyTranscriber/pyTranscriber

Thanks a lot for the help.
The errors messages have changed, as displayed in the terminal (I believe it may be an error in the Mate environment, running on Ubuntu 22.04):

In terms of audio formats... just try hard-renaming your ogg file to .mp3 for example and see if works... ffmpeg is the thing doing the conversions... so theoretically it should be able to convert basically anything...

Good to hear you managed to get the app working... I will investigate the issue of the Output Location when possible... looks like a Mate related bug because on GNOME it works fine...
