Video Conversion info

[Shohreh]

Thanks for the infos.

I'll piggy-back on the thread in case any NT expert is lurking around here.

I need to convert several MOV files into MP4, while converting the audio track as well, but the code I used from here doesn't seem to work:

Code: Select all

c:\>for %%A IN (*.mov) DO ffmpeg -i "%%A" -c:v copy -c:a libmp3lame -ab 128000 -ar 44100 -ac 2 -shortest -f mp4 "%%A.mp4"
%%A was unexpected at this time.

c:\>for "%%A" IN (*.mov) DO ffmpeg -i "%%A"-c:v copy -c:a libmp3lame -ab 128000 -ar 44100 -ac 2 -shortest -f mp4 "%%A.mp4"
"%%A" was unexpected at this time.

Any idea?

Thank you.

Poor idea to piggy-back to a non-topic related post.

You would have been better off to start a new thread.

Yes.

Problem solved:

Code: Select all

for %A IN (*.mov) DO ffmpeg -i "%A" -c:v copy -c:a libmp3lame -ab 128000 -ar 44100 -ac 2 -shortest -f mp4 "%A.mp4"

I do not know why you appended all this info about converting files to a topic about deleting thumbnails - I see no sense or reason for it.

Why can it not go in the MOV file topic - ?
