Setup

HandBrake CLI - Windows Context Menu Batch Encode

To get you started:

1. Download and install HandBrake: HandBrake UI
2. Download HandBrake CLI (command line utility) HandBrakeCLI
3. Extract HandBrakeCLI zip and place in folder: "C:\Utilities\HandBrakeCLI"
4. From the 'dist' folder of this project, copy the file "BatchEncode.exe" to above folder
5. From the "Context Menu Setup" of this project, edit the "SetupContextMenu.reg" file (using notepad or another text editor):

You'll need to be somewhat familiar writing registry files. Here you set your presets (that you export from HandBrake UI)

6. Run the "SetupContextMenu.reg" file to import into the registry. You'll then be able to right click on a folder in Windows and select a preset.

The batch program will then look for any video files and start the batch job.

Feel free to continue development on this and push back here.
