docs: document desktop launch parameters (/video:, --video, /batchconvertui)#11401
Merged
Conversation
Add a "Launch Parameters" section to the Main Window page covering the desktop app's CLI arguments. None of these were documented before: - positional subtitle path - /video:<path>, --video:<path>, --video <path> (restored in db0e6b2) - /batchconvertui / --batchconvertui (standalone batch-convert window) Note that an explicit --video flag overrides Settings > Video > AutoOpen so existing sync scripts behave the way users expect when invoking SE from the command line.

User feedback: only the legacy /video: syntax should be advertised. Also dropped the --batchconvertui alias from the table entry for the same reason (single-form per row). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
