Using a GUI for this would be a true nightmare. I have some hundreds of hours to transcode, and CLI would be perfect. To point 8: Now with this one, i am totally clueless.Īny help would be appreciated.

To point 5: I think the 386 kbs AAC thing i got right, but how do i have it use the same mixdown, sample rate and transcode all audio streams to output mkv? What to i need to add to have it copy all subs to output mkv? To point 4: AFAIK in default setting FFMPEG would only use 1 subtitle, not all available. Is this right? Would this apply to the command line i wrote, or do i have to add something? To point 1,2,3: AFAIK FFMPEG would do just as i want it in default setting. If someone could help me get the commands right, then i can move on to try to write a batch file with them. I have searched the documentation, googled for hours and hours, but i dont know how to procede. Output file name same as source plus an added '-DONE' or something like that

video stream transcoded to x265 with CRF 22Ĩ.

all audio streams with same mixdown, same Khz, transcoded into 386k AACĦ. Sources are nearly all FHD TV Shows ripped from Bluray or HDTV.įfmpeg -i input -c:v libx265 -preset superfast -crf 24 -c:a aac -b:a 386k output.mkvĥ. Sadly my brain is pretty flawed, so i am trying hard to scrape the right commands together for (batch) transcoding X264 to X265 with FFMPEG. I am quite a noob to CLI encoding, but i have had some experience with it ages ago.
