This current COVID19 has given me ample of time to take backups and cleanup pics and videos from my camera.
Just a few commands to convert between formats to save space and archive.
converting between containers:
1
| ffmpeg -i <my-video.mkv> -c:v copy -c:a copy <my-video.mp4>
|
for bulk converting in a directory:
1
| for %f in (*.mkv) do (echo "ffmpeg -i %f -c:v copy -c:a copy %~nf.mp4")
|
encoding m4v
to mkv/mp4
(hbcli is handbrake-cli):
1
| hbcli -i <my-video.m4v> -o <my-video.mkv/mp4>
|
encoding mov
to mp4
with hbcli:
1
| hbcli -i asdf.mov -e qsv_h264 -q 20 -B 160 -o asdf.mp4
|
encoding mov
to mp4
with ffmpeg:
1
2
| ffmpeg -i asdf.mov -c:v libx264 -c:a aac -movflags +faststart asdf.mp4
ffmpeg -i asdf.mov -preset slow -c:v libx264 -a:a aac -b:a 128k -b:v 2500k -pix_fmt yuv420p -minrate 1500k -maxrate 4000k -vf scale:-1:720 asdf.mp4
|
copying mov
to mp4
without encoding, basically just changing container:
1
2
| ffmpeg -i asdf.mov -qscale 0 asdf.mp4
ffmpeg -i asdf.mov -q:v 0 asdf.mp4
|
extracting audio from video:
1
| ffmpeg -i <my-video.mp4> -f mp3 -ab 192000 -vn <my-audio.mp3>
|
converting png
as webp
one image at a time:
1
| cwebp -q 75 <image.png> -o <image.webp>
|
converting png
as webp
in bulk (be careful what the current directory is):
1
| find ./ -type f -name '*.png' -exec sh -c 'cwebp -q 75 $1 -o "${1%.png}.webp"' _ {} \;
