batch.rb not transcoding

ramiltonii opened this issue · comments

Hello & thanks for this great tool. I had been using this for a while on another computer & recently got a new computer. I was installing this & trying to re-create my process with the batch.rb. When i run a convert with other-transcode, it works fine. If i run the batch.rb it just skips down to the next line & doesn't convert anything.

even when i put the batch.rb & queue.txt file in the same folder.

Has anyone seen this before?

@ramiltonii You are very welcome and I'm sorry you're having this problem.

The queue.txt file actually needs to be in the current working directory for batch.rb to find it. Usually that means batch.rb is placed in that same directory. Is that where batch.rb is located?

It is in the same directory. I actually added it in the /bin folder also. Put the file I want to convert in the same folder and everything. My old computer works fine, just the new install is acting weird! 😊 thanks for responding.

@ramiltonii Remove the batch.rb file from your \bin directory. Just execute it from the working directory, i.e. invoking it via .\batch.rb. That could be the problem.

@lisamelton Thank you for responding to me. I was able to resolve. when i started trying to set up on my new machine, i started with other projects not seeing the other transcoding. They suggest to use WSL to install the tools. I re-read over your instructions & saw not to use the WSL. I uninstalled WSL & the batch.rb started working. Thanks for helping me!!!

@ramiltonii You are very welcome!

OK, I will close this now because the issue has been resolved.
