mpv and saving

[natty]

I am using mpv https://mpv.io/manual/stable/

but how on earth do you save the video you are altering

You have just copied the link I put above. Did you not read what I said. I need to know how to save changes you make

Probably this https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#configuration-files
It seems to me too complicated for everyday using....

follow this https://pastebin.com/5B8w0ZLk
it is nicely explained with examples, I have mpv portable and I have mpv.conf in portable_config directory (located in the same directory as mpv.exe is)
then:
mpv whateverin.avi -o new.mp4
works, that mp4 is created
EDIT: that config is not set up correctly like that, it is just some defaults, so investigate why or just setup x264 variables in that command line

Thanks all but I still have not had a reply on how to save any alterations you have done to a video, plus like Bernix said, its a bit too complicated also for me too, so will give up on it. Im no good at all this scripting stuff, too old for all that.
