How to configure preference only with command line

[-FX-RIDER-]

I'm using the new 1.5.5 beta on an minimal ubuntu karmic installation. I'm using just makemkvcon, but I can't use Avatar, because I can't configure the folders for makeMKV. Is it possible to use something like a configfile which is automatically used by makeMKV? I need to configure whre makeMKV can find the SQV package.

The configuration file is ~/.MakeMKV/settings.conf . For svq path the setting name is bdplus_SvqDir . The easiest way would be edit preferences on another computer and copy the configuration file.

Hi mike,
thank you for the answer. Couldn't try it up to now. Can't you upload a "generic" config file which I could change for my purpose?

this is what mine looks like

Code: Select all

skittle@Skittle-PC:~/.MakeMKV$ cat settings.conf
#
# MakeMKV settings file, written by MakeMKV v1.5.5 beta linux(x64-release)
#

aacs_KeyFilesDir = ""
app_DestinationDir = ""
app_Key = "T-o4vIHFtFMG0O4H5u0NT40YJcRLnfXk2j1O0Yiy3O6YrwbHga7kWEYays4AS6MTK9h9"
app_ShowDebug = "1"
bdplus_DumpDir = ""
bdplus_SvqDir = "/home/skittle/.MakeMKV"

what is the syntax for setting automatic svq download?

I am guessing it is app_UpdateEnable = "1"
