hello trying to create a loop which will iterate through an array of .xml files to add subtitles to a clip with spumux..but not working. Here is code:

foreach my $i(0 .. $#subxmlfiles) {
chdir('/users/dragonzero29/.wine/drive_c/mvtmp') or die "Could not cha
+nge to dir...$!";
my @subxmllist=glob("@subxmlfiles");
system("spumux -s$i -m dvd -P \"/users/dragonzero29/.wine/drive_c/mvtm
+p/$subxmllist[$i]\" < \"/users/dragonzero29/.wine/drive_c/mvtmp/$MM.M
+PG\" > \"/users/dragonzero29/.wine/drive_c/mvtmp/.\" . ++$MM . \".MPG
+\"");
}

The array @subxmlfiles is created earlier in the script and if you're not familiar with spumux it takes an .xml file and uses it with an input clip to create subtitles and then outputs to your designated filename; if you have multiple .xml files (for multiple languages) then

each invokation of spumux MUST use the previous muxed clip to add to...I hope this makes sense. This is where I run into problems. the first clip (without subs) should be 0.MPG. This will be the input file and it will be used with the first .xml file in the array and the output file should a filename with $MM incremented by 1 which will be 1.MPG; 1.MPG will then be the input for the next iteration of the loop and so on and so forth so your expertise will be greatly appreciated :)
