makemkvcon selection profile on headless machine
Posted: Wed Sep 13, 2023 1:07 am
After trying to figure this out and searching around a bunch of older posts that don't seem to be relevant or newer ones that were not answered, I am appealing for help in my dilemma understand track selection profiles for makemkvcon.
IT seems like if you have the GUI installed, you are supposed to edit the default profile in the GUI ... great.
However, if you are using a headless/no GUI machine, there is no discussion on how to edit the profile for makemkvcon. There are old posts about importing profiles (--profile=[path]), but this seems to be deprecated.
Can someone either point me to a post or other instructions explaining how this can be done. Alternatively, feel free to explain in this thread. I'm sure at the end of the day this can be done and is hopefully straightforward. I have already determined the changes for the selection profile, I just need to pass it to makemkvcon to follow it.
Thanks!
