Output files are put into the default folder instead of the folder I select. Based on a post on Giters (https://giters.com/HandBrake/HandBrake/issues/3436) I think the documentation may be incorrect. What is the correct order of operations? Do I need to select the output folder BEFORE I add titles to the queue? Should I select the preset and/or encoding parameters before or after adding titles? The order of operations is apparently critical, and I don't know what the correct order is. Thanks.
Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
1. Select source folder
2. Select preset
3. Add titles to queue
4. Select output folder
THIS IS THE ORDER OF OPERATIONS SPECIFIED IN https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/1.4.0/intr ... start.html
