Hi! first of all, I love Playscii! it's an amazing piece of software and I'd like to thank you for releasing it for free.

Recently after long use I've hit a roadblock:

When importing folders with images, playscii stops at random images, however the amount of frames corresponding to the number of images that were supposed to be imported are created.

The error is "bad frame" but the problem is that I had imported successfully that folder with images before, and suddenly when trying again, it stops. So if there were a problem with indexing it wouldn't have imported it the first times.

I'm on a Mac running Catalina 10.15.5 using a Intel i9 9900k and an AMD RX580 graphics card.

I just want to emphasise that previously i was able to import hundreds of images on a single folder, and now when I try to import the same folders, it shows the error I mentioned above.

Included is a screenshot of the log.

Tried reinstalled, uninstalling to no avail.

Sadly I'm not code savvy to deploy one of the forks cos they lack of an installer.

Hopefully you could help me out because I'm in the middle of a project that needs to be finished pretty soon. 

Thank you once again!


I'd like to see if I can reproduce this on my system. If you feel comfortable sending me the source file(s) you're trying to convert, email me at the address on this page: http://vectorpoem.com/contact.html

I will email you now. I must say it happens with every folder I have with different images. I think it started happening when i upgraded to python 3.11 but I'm not 100% sure.

Before that, the same problem used to happen but the error was differemt:  "IndexError: list index out of range"

Oh hey, it looks like you can't read:

As Playscii's sole author, I have multiple objections to the creation and selling of Non-Fungible Token (NFT) art and do not approve of said use. Legally I cannot stop you but I offer absolutely no support to such users, and I am not interested in engaging with them on this subject. See this section of the project's web page for more information on this.

You will get zero further support from me.
