ADM queue express mode ( feature request )

[poutnik]

Current queue is very inconvenient, if one makes serial processing of DVB recordings.

Would be possible to implement an "Express queue mode" ?

In such a mode,

target folder would be working or predefined folder,
target filename would be generated from source name by defined way
Job name would be derived from target name, e.g. first 32 characters.

queue is mostly used for editing several videos: store jobs and process all at night (example).
Express queue mode = batch processing?
then you should look here: Sample script : Convert a whole folder

Test before all day usage: sometimes avidemux 2.6.8 cli does not take some settings/commands you intend to use.
If that would be the case: use avidemux-GUI instead of using the avidemux-CLI. This should work to.

some other samples can be found here: Documentation & Tips

thank you for the response.
I may have expressed myself not precisely - I apologize.

I do not mean fully automated batch processing like OneClick for a folder feature of MeGUI.
I mean queue processing, to optionally get rid of explicitly defining target filename and jobname for every item, after manually defining cutting/filtering/encoding and manually adding to the queue.

I do not use CLI queue processing, as ADM got crazy ( last tried on DEC 4or 5 Win64 nightly ).
I have thought it would be background process, or just 1 CLI window, behaving peacefule.
but it was rather wild action, opening 2 console windows, and displaying,aside other things, per frame  DN3DHQ status.
I prefer QT4 mode.

But  both modes behave very unpredictably and crash frequently.
In fact, I currently very afraid to use but for testing.

I think I have reviewed the links before, but i will refresh my mind.

le).
Express queue mode = batch processing?

I mean putting a job into queue without being asked for providing either filename either jobname.
As the source name is known.....

I will definitely study scripting possibilities.
especially how much it would be applicable to partially interactive processing ( cutting ).
