Hey folks
I'm lazy and want to call the mencoder routine from mplayer into a bash
script I'm writing to automatically convert different video files into
dvd format *.mpg files.
Anybody know how to call in just the routine without any unnecessary
mplayer stuff?
ummm.... mencoder is a command-line program. just figure out your
options and use it like any other cli tool. it should "just work"
Hi Andrew
Yeah, it is a cli tool and I have traditionally used it as such at the
vt and just entered it directly. However, in a shell script I have tried
to do that but get the error message:
mencoder: command not found
I'm wondering if I need to explicitly set my path in the script file in
order to call this function.
