Batch convert a number of MP4's with a lower bitrate
Posted: Sat Apr 06, 2019 5:13 pm
First off I am straight out admit I'm a n00b. I've tried and failed at using the FFMPEG documentation to write my own code and have gone to huddle in the corner using GUI's.
However, each of the software options have had deficiencies in one way or another.
The software that closest meets my needs is called 'FFE FFMPEG'.
I can use it to encode C:\CONVERT\input.mp4 to C:\RECODED\output.mp4 whilst reducing the bitrate to 16000kbps, and setting a constant 25fps.
This leaves me the following:
However this doesn't allow me to convert en masse?
What command is required to batch convert a stack of MP4's in one folder, and place them in a new one with the lower filesize (or at least give the files a different name so I don't overwrite the originals).
Thanks in advance!!!
