Readme:
INSTRUCTIONS FOR UBUNTU 18.04 LTS

Ubuntu+Win compatible version was tested on Linux Ubuntu 18.04 using Wine 5.0 (WineHQ).

  • First of all, extract all zip contents to a folder, like /Home/user_name/FFBatch_215.
  • FFmpeg Batch performance is similar to a Windows installation, though interface is not perfectly cloned,
    and some features are missing, like automatic shutdown. Application can fail if resolution is changed during execution.

  • Playonlinux does not seem to work well with FFmpeg Batch.

Follow instructions, be careful to use your current ubuntu version:

  • Running winecfg we can add the Royale style which slightly improves UI.

  • To start, run: wine '/path_to_FFBatch.exe'

  • You may create a desktop launcher like the one included in the zip.
