can VLC display

Postby edwardsmarkf » 31 Jan 2024 19:19

hello -

LONG TIME Vlc fan here but first time posting. Vlc has worked so perfectly that i never needed to ask a question for years and years now.

i have a rather large vid conversion job and it appears that Vlc will handle the job flawlessly.

is there any way i can convert just ONE video and then somehow "capture" the CLI command that would do the job? thinking then just write some sort of loop and take the command & substitute some variables in where the file name is.

sorry if this is not the correct forum. i am doing this all on windows.

this appears to be my solution: (so far anyway)

-vv "Verbose verbose". Verbose output (debug infos can be displayed by selecting "Debug logging" interface under View->Add Interface menu)

in case this helps anybody else, here is my solution (line breaks for readability, maybe BAT files have some way to put in line breaks??)

"c:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" \

"c:\Users\mark\Desktop\ogv-conversion\mediaFiles\american\ogv\phoneticVideo\6-vowel.ogv" \

-I dummy \

--sout=#transcode{vcodec=VP80,vb=2000,acodec=vorb,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100,scodec=none}:std{access=file{no-overwrite},mux=webm,dst='C:/Users/mark/Desktop/ogv-conversion/mediaFiles/american/webm/phoneticVideo/6-vowel.webm'} \

vlc://quit
