No way to output file to a different directory #45

Closed ESClaus closed 4 years ago

ESClaus commented 4 years ago

I noticed that there isn't a switch to output the file to a different directory like there is with your other app. Is this a limitation or did I miss something?

I am running a powershell script that looks for files in one folder and converts them. Currently it outputs to the location of my script file. Would like it to output to a different folder if possible.

@TheClaus All output going to the current working directory 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 before you invoke other-transcode. So it's not a limitation either.

Your request is actually a duplicate of issue #9 (and issue #44) where I've detailed my reasoning for not implementing this. Sorry.

@TheClaus In your powershell script you can add a working directory command to put the output where you want to. My 2 cents worth.
