I have no idea what I just did, but it works! Thank you! I'm so happy that I now don't have to wait hours anymore to convert an mkv into an mp4 file

how do i make it so that files that already are mp3 are overwritten automatically? without typing y for every one of them? with your code

Hi I'm getting a: zsh: parse error near "/R" . Using ffmpeg on Silicon Mac FYI. regular -c copy works just not the batch.

Can this command compress video file size?

Thanks for the video. Do you have the ffmpeg command for normalizing the audio in mp4, or mkv files? Thanks again.

How weird, nothing happens at all when I do this. No error, no output, just moves on to the next command line entry string.

Hi! This video is very helpful, but I'm having a small problem. I'm actually trying to convert a lot of FLAC files to MP3 so that I can play them on my phone, and when I convert these files, the metadata for them is cleared. Is there a way to fix this? I'd really like to keep my metadata and also have them converted to mp3 to save space.

Also, is there a way to make these all go into a seperate output folder? That would make sorting them a lot easier.

Didn't work...
" 'ffmpeg' is not a recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"
Error message

Edit: Nevermind apperantly I had to transfer the executeable around for it to work.

Why is there no audio on the mp4 file :(
