    Arrow Is it possible to edit Transmageddon settings?

    Hi.

    Is it possible to have Transmageddon to have the Output Format set at webm as default instead of ogg? Is it also possible to save output videos on the Desktop instead of in ~/Videos?
    I see no config file in the home directory.

    Thanks.

    The config file may not be in /home. That type of thing may be in /usr/share.

    Transmageddon is a python script. to adjust to Desktop you'd edit /usr/share/transmageddon/transmageddon.py
    Easiest for ~/Desktop is to edit the default XDG UserDir line for videos - Blue is by default VIDEOS

    Code:
           # Set the Videos XDG UserDir as the default directory for the filechooser
           # also make sure directory exists
           #if 'get_user_special_dir' in GLib.__dict__:
           self.videodirectory = \
                       GLib.get_user_special_dir(GLib.UserDirectory.DIRECTORY_DESKTOP)
           self.audiodirectory = \
                       GLib.get_user_special_dir(GLib.UserDirectory.DIRECTORY_MUSIC)

    Ah yes, I found it here: /usr/share/transmageddon

    Not sure what to edit though.

    It seems odd that a program would not have a home dir config file.

    Is it also possible to add a queue to Transmageddon like the Enqueue feature in Handbrake?

    Thanks you mc4man. This works fine.

    Re: Is it possible to edit Transmageddon settings?

    Would it be ok to run multiple instances of Transmageddon to run lets say 2 to 3 transcodings at once?
