Convert process parameters #21

Closed displacedaussie closed 9 years ago

displacedaussie commented 9 years ago

On the latest version of Ubuntu, the available version of libav-tools includes a version of the 'aac' encoder that is "experimental". The default convert process triggered by wildcard.media fails with the following error:

$ avconv -i test.mp4 testoutput.mp4
....
encoder 'aac' is experimental and might produce bad results.
Add '-strict experimental' if you want to use it.

It would be useful if we could configure extra parameters via the control panel to pass to the convert command.

$ avconv -i test.mp4 -strict experimental testoutput.mp4

We could add a control panel option for this. Also, might be useful to include some info about this in the README. Would you mind making a pull request?
