Hi and thanks for the update!!
I was just thinking about the possibility to shutdown the computer after finishing the screenlist generation?
For example to run over night.
Don’t know if this request is actually for Videonizer or VTM.
What do you think?

I think it is asking too much for dev to implement that feature. But yeah I feel your pain with how long it takes to make the screenlists. Just finished a 30 hr screenlist job myself recently. You can make your own shutdown feature with windows 10 easy. here is a good guide. you basically make a schedule task and it will shut the PC down when it is idle for a set time.

There are timer shutdowns but I tried figuring out the time of completion with spreadsheets but the time changes with the resolution of the video file. bigger file more time, old codec more time. I thought it would be cool to make a count down timer benchmark for when you process screenlists but its no good, too many variables. first calculation had it complete in around 9hrs...turned into over 20hrs. Best to use idle function. :?
