A small yet quite capable Bash shell script written for the GNU/Linux and BSD operating systems for encoding video files to the H.264/AVC video format using FFmpeg and the libx264 library. Targeted primarily at encoding of full-length feature films and film series but it can be used for other content as well.

User Reviews

  • Continuing in the tradition of h264enc - this little utility is brilliant. With very regular updates. Just set it and forget it. If a build crashes half-way through - you've got a saved shell script to restart it. You can easily comment out a completed first pass encode - that has been completed successfully... Great stuff! Really easy to use. The script will even run on a headless server - which makes it really versatile!
