[Cin] HEVC hw encoding on AMD Polaris cards

[Phyllis Smith]

@Spitsyn.andrey: concerning your previous message as provided below the
asterisks (***).  A change to the Shell Commands has been checked into GIT
that I believe should get you what you can use when you use the "Add"
option after going to: Settings->Preferences->Interface->Shell Commands.  I
have not documented how to use it yet but I am pretty sure you will
understand how to use it as I barely do.  Be sure when doing the Add to
check the box "run /path/script.sh + argv" to run that script.  I believe
this is all you have to do to get this working:

1) put your script as you described earlier below anywhere on your system
that will not be deleted
2) set up you Shell Command as described in the CinelerraGG_manual.pdf
  basically do an Add, type in the line /{your directory
path}/your_script_file.sh and check the "run" box
3) click all OKs to get back to Cinelerra
4) NOW to execute your script from inside Cinelerra, assuming you have
loaded your video files/assets, highlight the 1 file in the Resources
Window that you want to proxy using your script, then use the Shell Cmds
icon to find the Add that you did and click on it.  I would suggest you
look at the output on the window from where you started up Cinelerra to
make sure it is working or your script could include an output log file.

You can also use $1, $2, ... more args  in your script and then highlight
multiple files.
Let me know if this works for you or what the problem is if it does not.
Thank you as this was a good addition for us.  gg/Phyllis
