Hi All,
I've got a collection of video files ( avi divx flv m4v mkv mp4 mpg ogv rmvb wmv ) with different video codecs (divx h264 mpeg4 RealVideo WinMedia8 theora xvid etc. ) and different audio codecs (you get the idea).
I've also got a Sanyo TV that only wants to play ... flv mp4 mkv wmv mpg avi with... h264 WinMedia9 xvid-mpeg4 and ... certain audio codecs.
Have any command-line Linux wizards on the list: made up a script file for a batch conversion of video files, searching for certain filespec extensions (wrappers?) and/or codecs, and having transmageddon (or whatever) convert them?
I'm hoping to have something that could work its way through a directory of files, that I could leave it run unattended for a couple days, but could abort it (in case of a need to shut down the system for a while or give other processes system resources).
I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.4 and got Transmageddon 0.15
Thanks very much in advance.
Carl Bayswater

Handbrake has a CLI version that could do that for you but you'd have to script the input output parts, which is what your asking I suppose. -- Colin Fee tfeccles@gmail.com
