Video Transcoder

Wrapper around ffmpeg to transcode media to Apple's ProRes codec.

This will prepare your videos to be used in DaVinci Resolve or other editing programs that don't like H.264 / H.265 encoded media.

Installation

You need to have ffmpeg installed on your system.

Then, download the binary for your OS on the releases page and execute it.

Usage

videotranscode -source=/path/to/folder/with/source/videos -target=/path/to/place/transcoded/folder

Note: In the target folder a new folder will be created that has the same name as the source folder with a -transcoded postfix.

Overwrite existing files

By default existing transcoded video files in the target folder are not overridden. You can change this by passing the -overwrite flag.
