OK. I think I get it. It's kinda like dispatch-conf except it is for |
31 |
files not lines in a file. No 'merge' option tho. Kinda hard to merge a |
32 |
video. lol |

I may try that sometime. I may copy the files to a different location |
35 |
just in case I screw up something. It won't be the real files so no |
36 |
harm if I botch it. This is mostly because I haven't seen it run |
37 |
before. I don't know what I'm doing. ;-) |

Since I usually name the directory torrent, I may edit that part. That |
40 |
or change the name on my directories to temp. |

If you have other scripts, I'd like to see them. Others might too. |
43 |
Someone may google for a way to do something and run up on them too. |

P. S. Now I'm trying to figure out how to change the resolution of all |
50 |
videos in a directory. Usually going from 1080p to 720p. If you have a |
51 |
script for that, awesome. I'm currently using handbrake and it works |
52 |
but there may be a better way. |
