Batch transcode helper for media files using ffmpeg. https://git.dennisfink.me/transcode.sh/atom/README.md?h=v2.1.0 2026-05-23T07:07:20Z 2026-05-23T07:07:20Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-23T07:07:20Z urn:sha1:1c55ed7ccbe2adca05059c7cff12c23d8a8aef67 2026-05-22T20:53:57Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-22T20:53:57Z urn:sha1:98d0febab5289604a3fa4b896c171c97e18c7110 Update the README installation commands to reference the renamed bash completion script with its .sh extension. This keeps the documented install path in sync with the repository filename so copy-paste installation commands work again. 2026-05-22T04:40:27Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-22T04:40:27Z urn:sha1:3e8c51b898eb9cc888a156cb9678ec4c1478cc8d Add --video-stream and [encoding].video_stream so users can choose which input video stream is probed for preset helper variables. Use the selected stream for codec, pixel format, frame rate, output pixel format, and GOP size metadata while leaving preset stream mapping unchanged. Validate CLI stream selectors strictly and ignore invalid config values with a warning so bad configuration falls back to the default v:0 stream. Document the new option in the README and man page, add verbose dry-run output, and provide bash completion for common video stream selectors. Closes #6. 2026-05-19T16:31:43Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-19T16:31:43Z urn:sha1:99e6b7ceb93db5ce9c4b70619c6ead5a2aaa281c Add --ffmpeg-loglevel so users can choose which ffmpeg messages are shown during encoding instead of always using the built-in default. Load the same setting from [output].ffmpeg_loglevel when it is configured and no CLI value was provided. Document the new option in the README and man page, and add shell completion for supported ffmpeg log levels. 2026-05-17T06:54:52Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-17T06:54:52Z urn:sha1:7ec4afb9f14c96db843d9569e0c32c14283ea9a5 2026-05-17T06:52:08Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-17T06:52:08Z urn:sha1:cb2b61479bf74ecd5636b06389b9651216512532 Add release version and revision date markers to the README so release tooling can update visible project metadata automatically. Expose the current packaged version near the top of the README without changing the rest of the documentation structure. 2026-05-16T19:47:14Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-16T19:47:14Z urn:sha1:f7f7769f1a9141da4823e3f33ea6152bbdb254d8 Add SPDX copyright and license markers to repository metadata and documentation files. Use comment styles appropriate for git attributes, gitignore, the commit message template, README, and justfile so license metadata is visible without changing runtime behavior. 2026-05-16T13:08:15Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-16T13:08:15Z urn:sha1:7a33be9034e7d950459c7a30a49d544cf36e5270 Add --skip-codec-override so users can ignore configured skip codecs for a single run and use only codecs provided through --skip-codec. Defer CLI skip-codec parsing until after config loading so the final skip list can be resolved independently of option order. Document the new override behavior in the README and man page, and add shell completion for the new flag. 2026-05-16T10:39:15Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-16T10:39:15Z urn:sha1:054a300fe5b81ed04f84e902e05c4f4efb95a193 Add --backup-dir support so successful encodes can copy the original file to an existing backup directory before replacing it. Preserve each source file's absolute path below the backup directory and avoid overwriting existing backups by appending numeric suffixes when needed. Document the new CLI and config option, and add directory completion for the backup path. 2026-05-16T06:42:23Z Dennis Fink 2026-05-16T06:42:23Z urn:sha1:4bb37025cf1b4516acd2746dc60ec59449e8aab0 Keep nice validation focused on accepting integer values instead of rejecting values outside the standard -20 to 19 range. Avoid failing early for values that nice itself accepts and clamps internally. This gives users behavior that matches the underlying tool instead of turning a non-error into a transcode.sh usage error. Update help text and README wording to describe the option as a nice adjustment, matching the command behavior.
