cdbuild
This is the first phase to run under script2disc. cdbuild is a command line driven program and requires the various "-" options seen with it. The script2disc interface on the Mac and PC/Windows hide this cryptic syntax.
Reading script:
In phase one, each script in the title is analyzed for viability to be built as a real time file. Also checks for correct paths for assets, script syntax and timing conflicts.
Creating preamble file:
If the script passes analysis, all the asset timing, logic, menu, call and branching instructions in the script are boiled down into a control file (preamble) to be used when playing that script from the CD. The preamble files end with the suffix _p on the hard drive (build folder). The name is altered in phase three for more efficient CD storage.
Creating rtrb file:
If the script passes analysis, an instructional file is constructed which tells the phase two utility, "rtrb", how to make the real time file from the audio and video assets (non-MPEG) called for in the script. rtrb files end with the suffix _r on the hard drive (build folder). _r files are only used in phase two, and are not stored on the final CD.
Application extra memory usage
After all the scripts have been analyzed, cdbuild makes an estimate of the player memory required by various items in the basic title. Each K of memory used here reduces the amount of PLAYER memory available for fonts and subroutines (plug-ins) when the CD is played.
Remaining application base case memory
After all the scripts have been analyzed, cdbuild makes an estimate of the PLAYER memory required by the basic title, and then reports the memory remaining for fonts and subroutines (plug-ins). The number reported is for a base case player, which has no DV card installed. For machines with DV cards, add 1024k to the reported amount.
Disc Image approximately 9 Mb
Lastly, cdbuild calculates the approximate size of the disc image file (built during phase three, in the build folder). The reported size does not include the CD playback application, fonts or plug-ins. The amount is normally with 5% of the actual image file size.
Creating real-time file:
This starts phase two. cdbuild passes processing to rtrb which reads each _r file made earlier and constructs the real time files that correspond to each MediaMogul script.
FULL CD IMAGE
This starts phase three. The CD disc image creation software "Master" starts up. Master reads the instructional files mast_s, _ master0, _master1 and _master2. It then constructs a disc image file that will contain the EXACT contents to be recorded to the CD. All real time files made in phase two, fonts, subroutines, plug-ins, preambles, play applications and lots of Green Book stuff will be included here. The disc image file can be up to 70:00:00 long (about 710 Megabytes).
Start generation of volume "BUMPER" [about 00:57]
Before constructing the disc image file, master reads through all the "master" instruction files (called master scripts). It tallies the number of sectors used by all assets described there, then makes a very accurate hours:minutes:seconds estimate of the disc size. Translation from minutes to Meg is: 1 minute = 10 Meg.
Start generation of APPLICATION file CDI/DBUMPER.MM0
For efficient storage on the CD, most of the files are renamed and sorted. This is why you see additional characters and extensions. The MM0 extension marks the CD play application. This application literally starts up the player to begin playing the title. It uses the MM1 programs to get the job done.
Start generation of YELLOW file CDI/DSTATEPR.MM1
The MM1 files are the workhorses of the title. They control the timing, playback of realtime files, menuing, branching and other aspects of title playback. There are redundant copies (MM2 files) of these important files at the end of the CDI directory.
Start generation of YELLOW file CDI/ZMY_DIR_.MM2
MM2 files are redundant copies of the MM1 files. These redundant copies are used only if the MM1 copies are unreadable because of scratches or other damage that makes that area of the CD unreadable.
Start generation of ready GREEN file CDI/RBUMPER.MM3
MM3 files are all the real time files made in phase two by rtrb. They contain all the non-MPEG audio and video assets, arranged in sequential order according to presentation times as originally specified in the corresponding MediaMogul script.
Start generation of YELLOW file CDI/YBUMPER.MM4
MM4 files are the redundant copies of the preambles. The primary preamble is located in the corresponding .MM3 file. MM4 files are used only if the MM3 contained copy is unuseable.
Start generation of YELLOW file ECDI_POPS.MM5
MM5 files are plug-ins and fonts that are used during CD playback. Redundant copies are stored at the end of the CDI directory (MM6 files).
Start generation of YELLOW file XCDI_POPS.MM6
MM6 files are redundant copies of the MM5 files. These redundant copies are used only if the MM5 copies are unreadable because of scratches or other damage that makes that area of the CD unreadable.
Start generation of ready GREEN file CDI/EBUMPER_RTF.MM7
MM7 files are real time files NOT made during phase two. Most of the time these are MPEG files that were made elsewhere, but included on the CD for use with the Digital Video Plug-in.
End generation of volume "BUMPER" [00:58 - space efficiency 98%]
Marks the end of phase three and the end of the disc build. Among a boat load of intermediate files littering the build folder from phases one and two, there is now a large (maybe VERY large) file bearing the .cd suffix. This is the disc image. This file may be fed back through a 605 player or I2M card in Emulation Mode, or may be recorded directly to a CD-R disc.
Directory of /
As a courtesy, master shows to directory structure and files in the disc image (what will become the actual CD). / is the root, or first level directory, of the CD.
Directory of CDI
This is where ALL of the title assets are stored. This directory can literally contain THOUSANDS of entries.
End generation of album
Indicates that master, as well as the entire disc building process, is finished.

Timing problem between to assets (baithous.d and bumper.ani) in a script:
Solutions:
A still picture following a Run-Length animation MUST be give sufficient time to load (animation play time + next still load time). See "Load Time Table" on the laminated "Quick Card" with your MediaMogul Documentation.There must be a minimum (although no maximum) time between adjacent still video transition commands (Dissolve, Wipe, Curtain...) in a script. The minimum depends on the audio quality level playing at the time the picture is loaded from the CD. See "Load Time Table" on the laminated "Quick Card" with your MediaMogul Documentation.
There must be a minimum time of 12 frames (:12) between "play" audio commands in a script.
