[vdr] Re: Feature request: output path for cutting
Hi
Also in this case the leading '%' sign is no longer necessary.
It is necessary because you would still want the link to the primary
video directory. Otherwise there would be a name collision.
I don't think its necessary, cause in my example all cutted videos went
to /video/cut. So I know that these are cutted :-)
The idea about specifying a target directory is fine. But more important
for me is that all the files of a cutted recording (???.vdr, index.vdr,
marks.vdr, summary.vdr) are stored together at the destination and only
links from the primary video directory are used.
Currently I use a Perl script which does exactly this. I either specify
a target directory or none. In the first case all vdr files of a
recording are migrated to the target. In the second case it looks for a
directory with enough space and migrates all files to this destination.
I do it manually til now, but I think its time for me to make the
cutting process easier.
When the free space on my video directory is too low, I start cutting
the videos and afterwards I copy these to another partition on a
different harddisk or to my server. I'd like to do the following:
- Creating the marks for all videos which I want to archive with VDR
- Starting a batch program which cuts all videos which have a new mark
file and write the output to an archive directory.
Til now I am cutting one video and have to wait til the cutting process
is done to mark the next recording.
