@puddleglum No Problem I've had my fair share of head scratcher's trying to figure things out in the past. Just glad I could help speed up the figuring it out process. Lol

@puddleglum I'd look at your Handbrake log it may give you some clues to why Its not working. Did you make sure to set your Output folder to R/W opposed to just R/O in your Template settings? I know that has been a problem for some in the past. As well if your planning on having it delete the source after conversion you have to make sure that path is set to R/W as well.

Is there a way to re-order the scripts listed? I have a couple of scripts that I often run and honestly my list is getting larger and larger and it might be a little nice to group together some how.

Not a problem. Sometimes you just have to Read the Manual. lol

OH wow... I'll take a look. I figured you was busy and would get back with more questions. Thanks for everything so far. I was looking around where do you add the hook? ***************Update*************** I found some info here you posted. I'll look at it some https://github.com/jlesage/docker-handbrake

@Jorgen So instead of deleting files it's just deleting symlinks after each encode?

Copy, Move, Rename things of the sort. Nothing fancy... Worst case we can supply a Mapped Volume pointing at whatever scripts we would like to run. I used to use this a while back to Notify me when I Moved some files and had to use some sloppy code to make it work, but it did. I haven't test ran this to make sure everything fully runs, but its a quick jot down of an idea. MovieConvert.sh #!/bin/sh #Edit your Source/Destination here Source="/mnt/cache/Handbrake/zzzzz/" Destination="/mnt/cache/Movies/All/" #Just a way to get a listing MovieConvert="`ls -t /$Source | tail -n 1`" #Move the Files to its final Home mv $Source/$MovieConvert $Destination #Tell the world via the Notify Script which will push it to Prowl /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/scripts/notify -e "Just Converted" -d "Just Converted $MovieConvert" -i "normal" -m "Just Converted $MovieConvert"

Is it possible to include a when HandBrake is done with a Conversion or all conversions run a script? Possibly a fill in a path to a script in a the Docker Template? I have a few process I normally run after converting a file and currently I have it setup to run several hours afterwards just to make sure there is no conflict with HandBrake doing its thing. However if HandBrake triggered the script I don't have to worry about setting up any delays. Of course if its pushing outside the relm or scope of what we are doing here I completely understand the reason if the answer is NO.

When your support post has been solved please edit your title post with (SOLVED) to let others know your issue has been resolved. For Example. Drive unresponsive ---> (SOLVED) Drive unresponsive As well if somebody just happens to have the same problem and does a search or sees it they might be inclined to see what was done to trouble shoot the problem so they might solve it the same way. Obviously if its a problem is still in progress and your still troubleshooting do not edit your topic.

@Jorgen Do you have your Watch Folder set to Read/Write or Read Only in your Docker Template? I ask because mine seems to delete the original when its complete when ripping movies so far. I haven't tried multiple files yet. I'll give that a go soon and report back. The only time I've seen any weird glitches is when I had a file name with spaces in it. I'll retest some of those later as well. Just tested the following *****************************Update******************************* Worked perfectly 24-s01e01.avi 24-s01e02.avi 24-s01e03.avi Worked Perfectly The Big Bang Theory-s01e01.avi The Big Bang Theory-s01e02.avi The Big Bang Theory-s01e03.avi Not sure if it makes a difference, but I have not been starting/stopping the Docker. I have had it running and I just drop files into the Watch folder.

All good Now I'm seeing this instead. Not an error, but its doing it Every 5 seconds. Lol I suppose it doesn't really matter because its a lot better than Red Text... Eeeekkkkk. I'm planning on using --log-opt max-size=50m --log-opt max-file=1 to keep my log files from blowing up which I normally do on every Docker. Thank you for all your attention on this.

Just gave it a try and this is what its spitting out why I'm copying a file over to the watcher folder. Still seems to rip, but this is what it says during the copy.

Yes they are to different folders. I'll try and recreate the same situation soon and pay attention more to the log files to see if anything stands out as obvious. Watch Folder = /mnt/cache/Handbrake/dump Output Folder = /mnt/cache/zzzzzzzz Your very welcome for the Feedback. Nothing stands out as bad just figured honest/constructive info is always good to share.

Just gave this a go. Couple Observations/Comments 1. Gui Looks pretty sharp 2. I really like the settings in the Template vs trying to hack around in the HandBrake.conf file 3. I like the idea that I can create a preset in the GUI and call it out in the Settings without having to attempt to save it, edit the Handbrake.conf file and it works too. 4. Thank you for adding the option to delete from the Watcher folder. I normally put my copies of originals there so I don't mind if it disappears 5. When I tried to do a Test I used a file like so with the following settings. -- Do not delete the original -- Using a Custom Preset -- Using the Watcher Folder -- "The Watchers S1E05.mp4" and I noticed it ripped the file, but then it erased the file from /Output and attempted to Re-rip the file so I stopped it. I can only guess its because the file had a space. I didn't catch anything error wise in my HandBrake Log -- I can only imagine if I had of set Delete Original it would of worked just fine, but just wanted to point that out. 6. I drug a file to the /Watcher folder and while it was copying I noticed several error messages saying it couldn't read the file as it was copying over in the log. I wanted to say. "Duh, can you wait a few minutes and let it finish first? lol I know Coppit's Handbrake Docker had a "Waiting for Watch Folder Stabilization message, will re-attempt in 10 seconds" Not a big deal most of use might ignore this error message since once things are running smoothly in our day to day operations.

Lol. No worries. You got me exactly where I needed to be.

@Jorgen Thanks. I'll give that a try soon. Totally makes sense in what your saying. Knowing how picky Linux is I've always tried to keep things space proof so I'll just keep it simple and leave out spaces or do my favorite. this_is_how_I_use_spaces or this.is.how.I.use.spaces. I'm getting this when I run it via the Watcher. My custom file is in the same folder with the Handbrake.conf file in the /appdata/system/Handbrake/ 152 (process ID) old priority 0, new priority 19 [10:25:28] hb_init: starting libhb thread [10:25:28] thread 2b701f772700 started ("libhb") unknown option (--import-preset-file) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Found the little mistake that was messing me up. the import and preset was swapped. Not a big deal you had me on the right direction and a little GoogleFu fixed it right up. Old HANDBRAKE_COMMAND='HandBrakeCLI --import-preset-file /config/mycustompreset.json -i "$SRCDIR/$SUBDIR/$FILENAME" -o "$DESTDIR/$SUBDIR/$BASE.mp4" --preset "mycustompreset"' New HANDBRAKE_COMMAND='HandBrakeCLI --preset-import-file /config/mycustompreset.json -i "$SRCDIR/$SUBDIR/$FILENAME" -o "$DESTDIR/$SUBDIR/$BASE.mp4" --preset "mycustompreset"'

Something that is confusing me. I edited my /cache/appdata/Handbrake/Handbrake.conf to iPad2 I created a iPad2 preset because I want my files to be 1024x768 and now when I run this its not running. I checked my logs and its seeing the file hit the WatchFolder, but its skipping right over the files. I'm dropping files that are at least 1280x720 and it should be working. If its because of the custom preset how can I force the GUI to save any of the presets to 1024 since it keeps wanting to create new ones? ******Update****** Logs say iPad2 is an invalid preset.... How can you change the already set presets to a configuration that you actually need?

KewJoe did you setup your WatchFolder location in the Docker Template as well as the Output?

Worked Great. So am I to assume that after it rips a movie from the Watch Folder to the Output Folder it will periodically check for new files in the Watch Folder, but compare to already done files in the Output folder. Basically I have two copies of the same movie, but one is the original that resides in the Watch folder and the converted file in the Output folder.

Exactly what I'm running.

So glad I re-installed this.

So this one has a working Watching Folder?

Cool addon Squid I can think of several things I could use in that Tab. Is there any way to install multiple instances of the Plugin for multiple Tabs?

I personally use a Portable Drive along with Unassigned Devices plugin and just run a monthly schedule to copy my appdata in dated folders.

I have Hardware all over my house and my 7year old and my 11year old guard it from everybody when we have visitors. They know there movies and what not are on it so they are pretty protective because they don't want Dad upset.
