VidCoder presets - file or registry? Where to find to update manually?

[DavidRTurner]

I recently changed over from years of HandBrake use to VidCoder for its speed advantage.
Running most videos at SD quality, I don't notice any differences between the two programs' results, so VC has the advantage.

I download a lot of videos, where MKV is now the standard, but my file management software doesn't like to read MKV details, so I convert to MP4 using the closest settings I can find in the MKV. These days it can be a dozen files a day, of varying quality.

As such, I've created dozens of presets in VidCoder to match as closely as possible the MKV settings (mostly A/V bitrates).
I cannot find the presets location - either in a file or a registry setting -
I'd like to make some bulk changes, edit their names, etc... and sort them for easier selection in the menu.

Anyone know how the presets are stored, and where?
Much thanks...

Looks like the custom presets are in %APPDATA%\Roaming\VidCoder\VidCoder.sqlite. This is SQL data file and you will need a SQL editor to work with it.

Damn! Thanks; don't know why my searches didn't pick that up.

OK - using DB Browser for SQLite, I can see each preset entry; can't sort & re-save them, but can export each one, empty the dbase, then import each one by name so they stay in order. That's good for a one-time cleanup.

Will have to look for a way to actually re-sort the dbase entries into name order for future edits.

Thanks much!

create table temp as select * from presetsXML order by substr(xml, instr(xml, "<Name>") + 6, instr(xml, "</Name>") - instr(xml, "<Name>") - 6);
drop table presetsXML;
alter table temp rename to presetsXML
