Defaut Output Folder with AutoMounter

Post by johnnygoodface »

Hi gang,

I'm running MakeMKV on MacOS.

I'm also using the AutoMounter app to mount my NAS shares, so a typical path would look like this
/Users/jean/Library/Containers/nz.co.pixeleyes.AutoMounter/Data/Mounts/192.168.1.200/SMB/Transit/MakeMKV

So, I've setup the MakeMKV data directory to that same path.

But when it's time to extract, the Output Folder is still /Volumes/Transit/MakeMKV, NOT the above default path, and thus of course it's complaining: "Directory /Volumes/Transit/MakeMKV does not exist. Do you want to create it?" :(

So I have to manually copy/paste it to the Output Folder, then it works, of course :?

Why is MakeMKV not using my default path? :?:

What are your settings on the Preferences->Video page for Default destination? Both the radio buttons and the text box?

No problem. Actually, the settings there can be "mostly correct" and be "very irritating" at the same time. :)
