Thread: Keep original video title when converting in handbrakeCLI

so whenever try convert video renames files video.mp4

how keep original title of movie after conversion?

asked in ubuntu irc , said handbrakecli cannot that. don't believe that.

here code convert videos

code:

handbrakecli -i /home/christoph/videos/ -o movie.mp4 --preset="iphone & ipod touch"

if handbrake doesn't function documentation/help indicate, shell script may easiest fix.

code:

#!/bin/bash  handbrakecli -i "$1" -o video.mp4 --preset="iphone & ipod touch"  mv video.mp4 "$2"

save "brakewrap.sh" (or whatever want) in ~/bin/ (or other place in path). , use "brakewrap.sh source.mpg result.mp4"
