There are still countless cases you're not handling. This is nothing but pointless bloat for no reason whatsoever. The command line used is BY DEFINITION right above the avconv output in the terminal. If users can't copy and paste that, what reason is there to believe they can copy and paste *anything at all*? Just drop this silly idea. -- Måns Rullgård [email protected] _______________________________________________ libav-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.libav.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-devel
