Linux simple script to execute a 3rd program

Post by runnerma »

Is anyone out there to help me make a script?
I run Sabnzb On a Qnap NAs with linux On it.
I want a post processing scripts that after the download finish, to run mtm.exe (thumbnailer) with the correct parametres.
The problem is that I dont know at all if that is possible and if it is hot to make it.
The path for the mtm is W:\mtn\mtn.exe -w1600 -c 4 -s 60 -o _ss.jpg

It's not possible to let a Linux NAS execute a Windows program.

Let's try to make clearer what your question is versus what you already know:

1) Do you know how to use and run mtn? Do you know what the options mean?
2) Can you test run the mtn linux version on your QNAP NAS?
3) Do you know how to run an existing post processing script on SABnzbd, and specifically on your QNAP?

OK, after you've done 2 and the answer is Yes, come back and let us know what mtn command (with which parameters) you want to run, and what your question is.

Reason: if your answer is Yes, Yes and Yes, my initial thought is that you can handle it all by yourself.

EDIT ... but of course, I'd love to help if you know which command you want to run on your Linux system.
