Hello,
I'm using HB 1.2.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.
I own some 100 BDs and 3000+ DVDs that I'd like to convert. using the GUI is not convenient at all, so I intend to use cli and quasi automate the process.
I'd like to scan each disk and output the result into a human readable file. Then I could remove unwnated parts and add others.
For instance : I don't wnat to keep all tracks for my language in every format - the presets can't do what I need to.
I could then add metadata information (year of release, actors, comment, etc.) in a more easy way than using the GUI.
Invoquing the cli help didn't help me (unless I missed something).
Any idea how I can do this ?
Best regards,
J.-Luc
