Bug ID: 495962
Summary: CLI : --render-preset is not honored ; also there is
no CLI option to specify which sequence to render
Classification: Applications
Product: kdenlive
Version: git-master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface & Miscellaneous
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
Reporter: cont...@yannsalmon.fr
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Contrary to what ``kdenlive --help`` states, ``kdenlive --render-preset Preset
file.kdenlive output`` just opens the GUI and the specified project file.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a simple project with two sequences, save it under
``/tmp/test.kdenlive``.
2. Close kdenlive.
3. In a terminal in ``/tmp``, issue ``kdenlive --render-preset MPEG-2
test.kdenlive output``
OBSERVED RESULT
Kdenlive GUI opens, with the specified project.
EXPECTED RESULT
kdenlive renders something or issues a message in the console as to why it
cannot, but does not creates the GUI.
Acceptable outcomes would be :
- it complains that the requested preset cannot be found, and terminates in
error,
- it complains that the project contains multiple sequences and does not know
which one to render, and terminates in error,
- it renders each of the sequences with a suffix in the output file name (not
desirable imo),
- it renders the "first" sequence (not desirable unless there is only one
sequence).
