Handbrake-cli updated and now does not work
Solution 1:
Yes. The repo version is broken. I found a comment from the author, I really can't remember where but he acknowledges the official version is no good.
Good news is that he's got a PPA that works well and works flawlessly on my system.
Here's the terminal stuff -
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-snapshots
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
He said he'll get it fixed in due course, once he's figured out what went wrong.
Solution 2:
Just sudo apt-get upgrade
didnt do it for me. Needed to run sudo apt-get upgrade handbrake-cli
to get it actually upgraded (or downgraded?).
