how could this be used in convert mode

bobombolo opened this issue · comments

and in particular how to use this in batch conversions?

What is convert mode? This script doesn't convert anything, it enqueues a playlist with the start/end times of every item modified to exclude the start/end credits. The source files remain unmodified.

when you use VLC player's convert/save mode where you re-encode the file.

and in batch mode from the command line:

Can you explain what you expect this plugin to do with regards to the convert mode?

i guess this is the answer to the latter portion, about cli, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29047899/run-vlc-extension-from-command-line#29049184
some digging revealed the advanced command line options --start-time and --stop-time

oh, sorry, i was hoping that the plugin could add a tab in the convert mode for trimming the start or end off. it would be nice to be able to use the same profiles that we create in the normal use of the plugin.
