Save Selection As JPEG - Quality Options?

Another thing I wondered about, is whether that script needs a certain version of python to work?

It doesn't rely on any (external) Python interpreter at all. The minimal subset of Python Avidemux uses is contained in the libADM_script_tinyPy.dll plugin.

I should probably add that I use ZIP-packaged Avidemux builds for testing purposes on Windows (there are no other reasons for me to boot it in the first place), unless I specifically plan to test the installer. I extract it into an empty directory and run the graphical executable simply by clicking on it in the Windows Explorer window.

Usually, there are quite a few different builds in different locations, but they are never extracted over another build and also never run concurrently.

SUCCESS!

I have done a few things.  I updated python to 3.13.2, which didn't seem to make a difference, unless I needed to reboot first but didn't before testing.  I see you posted about that and no surprise that it didn't make a difference.

Next I deleted the contents of the Avidemux installation folder.  I had thought that installing a new version over-top of the old was acceptable since it sees the old version, wants to install to the same folder it's in, and offers to keep the settings, but apparently not.

After clearing out the installation folder, reinstalled same version 2.8.2 r241212 again to that folder, standard install, and it has no problem with No Disk message, none of the other errors I posted about, ("so far" no errors at all), and it does use the script properly now to sequentially name and save PNG for all the frames instead of only the first 37 frames.

Thank you for the guidance!

After I started getting tired of Avidemux making the index files with the latest version, I tried the same thing with the prior version, instaling it to a cleaned out folder instead of over-top of an existing installation, like I'd done with the newest nightly version.

I cleared the folder out, installed Avidemux_2.8.2 VC++ 64bits 240601 to that empty folder, and ran it as the only instance of Avidemux.  Doing so, it still won't use that sequential naming script to save more than 37 PNG images before it stops, while the latest nightly build still works to save all that are selected, so for the time being I'll use the older version till I need to save sequential PNG so I don't have all the index files to clean up, then run the newer one for saving sequential PNG images with the script.

I repeat myself, but the last known good nightly is a cross-compiled r241212 at the moment. It is pointless to take something else.

Create an environment variable ADM_NOINDEX_MP4 with value 1 for MP4 files (ADM_NOINDEX_MKV for Matroska files respectively). A pull request implementing indexing preferences is waiting for being merged once the dust settles and we get regular, working nightly builds again.
