Allow specification of an output path other than current working directory. #164

Closed hjk321 closed 1 year ago

hjk321 commented 1 year ago

Currently, this tool just spits out your file in your current working directory which is nice and all but rather limiting. It would be useful for those of us using this tool to batch-convert multiple files, to be able to specify a relative or absolute path in which to place the transcoded file. Perhaps some kind of --output-path option?

@hjk321 Thank you for using my tools!

This feature request has been made several times. The first in:

https://github.com/donmelton/other_video_transcoding/issues/9

And I think the most recent in:

https://github.com/donmelton/other_video_transcoding/issues/100

I'll repeat here what I said the last time:

This behavior is intentional and by design. And I have no plans to change that. You can already decide where your output will go simply by using the cd command to change the current working directory before you invoke other-transcode. So it's not a limitation either.

Did you have any other questions?

Fair enough.
