Where to save a Custom Preset when using File Export

Post by rhscjohn »

Description of problem or question:

Where am I suppose to save(what directory) an exported custom preset using Export to File in HandBrakeGUI so that I can find it when using HandBrakecli.exe. Can I save the file any where or does it have to be some specific directory/folder so that HandbrakeCLI can find it?

In Hanbrakecli.exe , I am using --preset-import-file <filespec> and --preset <string>.

What is the syntax for <filespec>? Is this looking in a specific folder for the .json file or am I suppose to supply a path?

<string> will be the name of the file I saved it under in HandBrakeGUI.

Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):




HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):

1.1.1


Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Win 10
