This can be time consuming if your input video is big in size.. cheers.

I cut and pasted the shell script into my /bin and I was good to go! Thanks for doing the work for me!! Much appreciated.

Just to say that I've changed some part of the script to get 720x576 videos at high bps output (=high quality) Maybe I will automate it so the parameters can be set from command line. ------------------- mkdir ffmpeg_temp ffmpeg -i $1 -r $3 -f image2 ffmpeg_temp/%05d.png ffmpeg -i ffmpeg_temp/%05d.png -s 720x576 -b 9000k $2 rm -rf ./ffmpeg_temp Hi.
