I noticed when running jobs from within avidemux_jobs.exe, it starts avidemux_cli with an argument --slave followed by a number. What is it, and should I use it too, when manually batch processing? I also noticed it's not in the documentation (hint hint ;))
Moreover, I cannot get any help by executing "avidemux --help" or "avidemux_cli --help". The former one starts the GUI and immediately exits it, and the latter one does this (http://www.avidemux.org/smf/index.php/topic,12525.msg64932.html).
Running 2.6.4 r8884 x64 on Windows 7.
This is what I get at the end of calling
avidemux3_cli --help
Directory /home/bernd_b/.avidemux6/ exists.Good.
Using /home/bernd_b/.avidemux6/ as base directory for prefs, jobs, etc.
