Priority: optional
Section: graphics
Maintainer: John Stebbins <jstebbins.hb@gmail.com>

@andyjack Thanks for the patch. But a better solution would be to make the version check code work correctly for nightly or personal builds rather than add yet another command line option.

Have you tried your version of HandBrakeCLI with the new Ruby-based version of the tools? See:

Yes I'd agree that another command-line option is not ideal. Thank you telling me about the ruby version; I tried it and it wasn't detecting the HandBrakeCLI nightly build version, either. To be honest I don't know why I was using the nightly build PPA on linux, so I switched back to the 0.10 version PPA and both the bash and ruby scripts were working again.
