help with handbrakecli code

Post by johnzapf »

I am trying to use handbrakecli to automate things for me. I can do basic things and that works, but when I make a custom profile and add to the code like -Z "John" it doesn't seam to use that profile. So then when I try to do all by code and I cant figure out how to use --encoder-preset-list etc, how do i write the code? --preset placebo or --preset "placebo" or -preset placebo, etc... does not work, can some help me with the right way to do this, I am not a coder and reading the cli documentation for 4 days has not explained how to do this as there is no examples.

thanks
John

it would be nice if there was a cli preview button in handbrake.
