Batch video conversion from command line - eviltoast

Hi fellow sailors,

i have lots of downloaded… ISOs… that i need to converto to save space. I would like to make them all of the same size, let’s say 720p, and same format, let’s say h265.

I am on linux and the… ISOs… are sorted into a neatly named hierarchy of sub-folderds, which i want to preserve too. What is the best tool (CLI) for the scope? I can use ffmpeg with a bash script, but is there anything better suited?

    Yes. I believe the paid version only gives you more possible nodes (where the transcoding is done), and more reports? But yes, you have the entire suite of tools necessary in the free version. It’s worked great for me, I’ve used it for a year and a half now
