ConvertXtoDVD Command line / remote control for batch

[Cougar_II]

Command line options:

/fl --> "path of a filelist to convert"

/file --> "path to a single file to convert"

/auto=true // start the conversion

/close or -close // Close the application when conversion is complete

/shutdown or -shutdown : Shutdown the computer when conversion is complete

/overwrite=true // Will automaticly start the conversion, and overwrite the destination folder if it already exists

/Priority=[Value] // If you wish to change the conversion priority, and overwrite your default setting

/Priority=1 (Idle)
/Priority=2 (Lowest)
/Priority=3 (Lower)
/Priority=4 (Normal)
/Priority=5 (Higher)
/Priority=6 (Highest)
/Priority=7 (TimeCritical)

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" Project_Name.xToDVD // load a project ( xml format ) this format allows to define any settings ( custom menu etc... )



RUNME.BAT: (Convert multiple saved Projects, close after each conversion, shutdown the PC after the last one)

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" C:\Work\project1.xToDVD /auto=true /Priority=2 /close

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" C:\Work\project2.xToDVD /auto=true /overwrite=true /close

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" C:\Work\project3.xToDVD /auto=true /shutdown

--> Of course, every projects has to be prepared in advance <--


RUNME.BAT: (Convert 1 file)

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" /file "C:\Work\filename1.avi" /auto=true /close

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" /file "C:\Work\filename2.avi" /auto=true /close

filename1.avi will be converted, and will generate 1 output (AUDIO_TS & VIDEO_TS)

filename2.avi will be converted, and will generate a new and different output (AUDIO_TS & VIDEO_TS) than the one above.

There will be no menus, no extras since it was not converted using a Project.


RUNME.BAT: (Convert 1 filelist / more than 1 file into 1 output)

"C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" /fl "C:\Work\filelist01.txt" /auto=true /close

filelist01.txt
D:\Videos\File01.avi
D:\Videos\File02.wmv
D:\Videos\File03.mkv
D:\Videos\File04.mov

This will convert all of those files in 1 (one) output (AUDIO_TS & VIDEO_TS)

There will be no menus, no extras since it was not converted using a Project.


START "C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" C:\Work\project1.xToDVD /auto=true /close

START "C:\PATH-TO-CONVERTXTODVD\ConvertXtoDvd.exe" C:\Work\project2.xToDVD /auto=true /close

will start both at the same time, since it will START 2 instances of ConvertXtoDVD instead of 1 after the other in the above batch files.


Infectiousx wrote an awsome interface, to help you do conversion in batch mode, it's called ConvertXBatch.

Could you add an example of how each command is used. It is not clear on some of the command line commands?

Hi,

Use ConvertXBatch, it makes our lives easy !

My examples are not clear enought ?

[johnadonaldson]

I will be using it from a command line interface. We are thinking of using this with a program that will capture AVI images and then burn all of these images to a DVD, so that the whole process is automatic.

Command line options:

/fl --> "path of a filelist to convert" Do not understand.

Does this mean that:
1. this is a file that contains all of the commands that you wish to preform?
2. is the a file that list the AVI files that is to be converted?
3. is this a folder that contains all of the AVI files that are to be converted and burned?
4. what?????

/file --> "path to a single file to convert" Understand

/auto=true // start the conversion Understand

Hi there,

Something happened to the format of my message, everything was all on 1 big line.

When I tried to clean it up, I guess I missed some stuff and deleted by mistake.

The /FL option example has been added again, I hope it answers your questions !

I love the idea behind it and as someone who uses a lot of the stuff in Komplete, being able to easily
categorize sounds would be a huge benefit.
