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?
My internet speed doesn’t allow for this unfortunately. On Usenet I can reach 1mb/sec when lucky. And 6Tb of stuff takes time to find and download again.
That’s a sticky spot to be in. Is another HDD out of the question? 6TB of encoding is going to take a lot of time too. When I first built my current server, I went ahead and bought a bluray drive with the intent of encoding bluray discs and gave up after about a dozen because of the time requirements.
