This PR adds an option
completion_command
, which, when set, will cause mpv-webm to run the specified mpv command when the encoding completes successfully.The string
%{output}
will be replaced with the path to the output file.This may be useful, for example, to automatically copy the path to the system clipboard, i.e.:
completion_command=set "clipboard/text" "%{output}"
(Note that
set "clipboard/text"
only works on Windows, Wayland, and macOS).Alternatively, if you have a script that copies its arguments to the clipboard (as I do, since I use X11):
completion_command=run "script-for-copying-args-to-clipboard" "%{output}"
(Unfortunately,
xclip
andxsel
don't seem to have the ability to copy from arguments, and I'd rather not invoke a subshell if possible just for piping to their stdin. Thus I wrote a small script that pipes into them itself, from its arguments. I find this a cleaner and less hacky solution, personally.)
