I have a bunch of text files that I created with mousepad in xfce. I didn't really think I would need to share them, but I guess I have to. Is there anyway I can batch convert these to rtf so they could be viewed on a windows client?
View 4 RepliesI have few thousands of icons from my OS/2 PC and I would like to convert them to format acceptable by LINUX GUI (*.png, *.xpm).I attempted to open an OS/2 *.ico files with few LINUx graphical apps (GIMP,Fspot, gThumb,Gwenview,Kolourpaint,Okular) but none can understand the format. It's somewhat problematic for me
to convert under OS/2 now so I'm looking for a LINUX app.Are there any LINUX apps that can convert OS/2 *.ico files to a LINUX format in BATCH MODE? If it requires manually "open then save-as", I can't repeat it few thousands of times.
I have an pdf file on my linux RHEL 4.7 machine. I can open that file but when i click on 'saveas' to save the file in 'Text' format there are no options i see there. I need to save the 'pdf' file to 'text' format. could anyone tell me how to save the pdf file to Text format. Iam using 'KDE'

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a file with about 6 .flv files and I wish to batch convert them to libmp3lame. I have tried making a #!bin/bash script with all the files in e.g.
Code:
ffmpeg -i filename.flv -sameq -acodec libmp3lame -f asf filename.mp3
I have inserted all the filenames individually into the script but when I ran it I got too many errors and i was wondering if someone knew a quicker way to do it e.g. a script that would batch convert all .flv files in that folder to .mp3 format.
So I have a php script that is setup to stream flash video (.flv) and I absolutely love having it. The problem is that any files I want to stream have to be in .flv format for it to work properly as .avi and others obviously don't stream well. Up until now, I've used FFMpeg to change the format from .avi to .flv, however the process takes a lot of time if you have a lot of videos, added to that you have to do one file at a time definitely makes it a pain.Does anyone know of a bash script that can take all the files (i.e. avi, .wmv, .mkv, .mpeg4) in one folder and automatically convert it to .flv? Then possibly delete the old files? Low resolution is fine, so long as it at least viewable. Does anyone have a script or know of a program that can do this (I run Ubuntu 10.04). I think FFMpeg has the best chance of doing this, but I don't know the syntax to actually do so.
I've searched the internet, and while I have found a few scripts, they didn't work for me (still looking into two scripts I found.I am currently messing with them to see if I can get them to work).It would be immensely helpful if someone knew of a way to do this.I also forget to mention that I have used Winff, but I was looking more for a bash script to do this so that I can set a cron job to convert them every hour or so.
I have many video files that I'm trying to convert from *** to .mp4..Currently I'm using Handbrake which does a good job but getting it started is very tedious. In Handbrake I need to confirm and add to queue all of the files. When there are over 200 files at a time it takes way too long. If there is a way to not confirm all of the files please let me know.What program can I use to just add a folder and have it automatically add all of the files to my queue?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not asking for help here, just documenting something I just discovered. Yesterday I wanted to batch-convert a bunch of old wma files to ogg vorbis. Not wanting to go through intermediate wav files, I tried to use ffmpeg to do it in one go. I first tried using the following command (in a loop, which I won't print here).
Code:
ffmpeg -i $file -f ogg -acodec vorbis -ab 192k outputdir/$file "vorbis" turns out to be the built-in libavc implementation of the codec. In the process I discovered that the -ab value is always ignored. No matter what value you put, the output is always the default 64k (average, but of course it's vbr). You can however use the poorly-documented -aq option to set the audio quality used. The values don't correspond to the oggenc values though, being a number ranging from 10-100 (or more, I don't know what the maximum is). It's not exactly clear what number corresponds to what average bitrate, so you have to experiment. ~30 seems to give you an average-rate file, while anything above 60 is probably overkill.
Switching to the external libvorbis gave me more flexibility, although at a cost of much longer encoding times (note that ffmpeg must have been compiled with libvorbis support first).
Code:
ffmpeg -i $file -f ogg -acodec libvorbis -ab 192k outputdir/$file
ffmpeg -i $file -f ogg -acodec libvorbis -aq 6 outputdir/$file
I could use both -ab and -aq (with the numbers corresponding to the oggenc values), with no problems. ffmpeg does display some wrong values in it's output text, however. In addition, there's one more difference. The vorbis (libavc) codec provides an entry in the header of the ogg container reporting the average bitrate, but it doesn't appear to provide a similar bitrate header in the vorbis stream itself. Some programs may not report the bitrate value because of this.
libvorbis provides both headers, avoiding that problem. So to summarize, libvorbis appears to be a better codec choice than vorbis.
I really need help with this part of a shell script which I am trying to migrate to DOS batch script.
View 3 Replies View Relateda movie is encoded with AC3 in 6 channel audio, what I get out is all of the sounds except for voices, which in 5.1 would be sent to the center channel. What I usually do is fire up avidemux and convert the audio to mp3 stereo, as converting to a 5.1 format usually ends up with a very odd sound (like running everything through an echo chamber). What I'd like to do is run a script to batch-convert these files from AC3 to MP3. The video format may vary, but they are usually XVID. I am comfortable at the command line, but I am not well-versed in audio/video tool terms. I don't need anything extravagant, I just want something that works. Heck, even if it is done one at a time, having a shell script that I can use to simply type:

I have a large (~60GB) collection of music in various formats on my hard drive. It is organised in the form Artist/Album/*.ext
The formats include M4A, FLAC, MP3, and OGG. What I would like to do is convert the entire directory, keeping subfolders and ID3 information intact. I would preferably like to be able to do this with a single script.
I am running Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64. I am fairly adept with BASH and the command line, so I foresee no problems there. If I have to write my own script, these are the things I'm not sure about:
(a) maintaining the directory structure.
(b) how to tell the script which converter tool to use (LAME, FLAC, etc.
(c) keeping ID3 tags.
I have some .mp4 files. While open this file using vlc-player the resolution is fine. Then I convert this .mp4 format to .avi format using "ffmpeg". While open the .avi file using vlc-player the resolution is not fine.
