Thanks Moritz,
Would I enter this right into my command prompt, or would I create a separate file to run
this statement from? I keep getting an error saying "File unexpected at this
time". Apologies for any ignorance. I am new to using the command window, though I
do have coding experience in php and java (though I am not sure that will help here).
Thanks!
You might find it beneficial to have 1 dir in your home dir that you
keep scripts
and add something like this
SrcDir=/media/BlahBlahpathtoVideoSourceFiles
cd $SrcDir
it will then "do" all in the dir BlahBlahpathtoVideoSourceFiles
---snip---
#!/bin/sh
SrcDir=/media/BlahBlahpathtoVideoSourceFiles
cd $SrcDir
for file in *; do
SIZE=`stat -c %s "$file"`
if [ $SIZE -gt 209715200 ]; then # > 200 MiB
COMPRESSION_V="-b:v 1500k"
elif [ $SIZE -ge 104857600 ]; then # >= 100 MiB
COMPRESSION_V="-b:v 1100k"
else # < 100 MiB
COMPRESSION_V="-b:v 555k"
fi
ffmpeg -i "$file" $COMPRESSION_V -b:a 128k "$file".new.extensio
done
