I hope this is clear and transparent and if anyone has any advice, I'm all ears. Select New and add ‘C:\ffmpeg\bin’ to the list. Select Path in System variables and select Edit. Select Environment Variables in the bottom of the window that appears. Select Advanced system settings in the left menu. Right click on This PC and select Properties.

The comma separating the "hwdownload" and "format" returns everything before the comma and ends with the output file name which misses everything about audio conversion, etc. Rename the folder to FFMPEG to make life easier. For private archive I recommend setting up Constant RF (rate factor) to between 16 and 18 (lower higher quality and larger size). Response.preset += `,-map 0 -c:v hevc_nvenc -rc:v vbr -cq:v 19 $ -vf hwdownload,format=nv12` (as an example) I suggest you encode to x264, its currently most commonly used coded and you can have quite small file while preserving good quality. The reason I have commas is because I'm trying to establish a couple filters and it seems the only way to do more than one is via a comma. I'm assuming this has to do with JSON formatting and am wondering if anyone has seen this and has a possible fix.

I've done some testing and editing of some plugins created for Tdarr and have found that if ever I put in a comma in the response.preset appended statement or input, it stops the ffmpeg command right there and the other information after the comma is lost.
