Command-line and settings in Linux

Post by bvrulez » Fri Dec 23, 2016 4:10 pm

How can I use the command-line interface (CLI) and give settings like

Code: Select all

-sel:all,+sel:(favlang|nolang|single),-sel:(havemulti|havecore),-sel:mvcvideo,=100:all,-10:favlang,-sel:subtitle
to it? I use Ubuntu 16.04 and a debian-based NAS with kernel 3.16.

I wanted to convert an already ripped DVD to MKV via command-line and successfully used

Code: Select all

makemkvcon mkv file:"VIDEO_TS" all "."
. First of all I got this information from http://www.shawnpdoherty.com/makemkv-cl ... omment-101 and did not find it elsewhere, which is sad.

Secondly, it seems that the CLI uses settings from the graphical user interface (GUI). My goal is to use the CLI on my NAS (open media vault) and there I don't have a desktop environment, so no option to set the settings via GUI.
