Batch Convert
Posted: 30 May 2007 05:25
The script was tested by Tonsofpc's and found to work. So enjoy batch transcoding you massive media colleciton.
My server is tied up for the next few days so I can't test this but if any one has a few spare CPU cycles give this a shot.
It should in theory convert all the files in the directory its executed in that have the targeted format to the selected output format.
Thanks,
Scott

Code: Select all
vcodec="h264"
acodec="mp4a"
bitrate="1024"
arate="192"
ext="mpg"
mux="ts"
vlc="/usr/bin/vlc"
fmt="VOB"
for a in *$fmt; do
$vlc -I dummy -vvv "$a" --sout "#transcode{vcodec=$vcodec,vb=$bitrate,acodec=$acodec,ab=$arate,channels=6}:standard{mux=$mux,dst=\"$a.$ext\",access=file}"
vlc:quit
done
Thanks,
