NAME

mc-encode - use the Media::Convert library to transcode a file from one format to another

SYNOPSIS

mc-encode --input input.mkv --output output.webm --profile webm --multipass

OPTIONS

--input=FILE

Use FILE as the input file to read video data from. Passed unmodified to ffmpeg(1)'s -i parameter. No default; required.

--output=FILE

Use FILE as the output file to write the transcoded video to. Passed unmodified to ffmpeg(1) as the output file name. Default: the base name (with whatever comes after the final dot, if anything, removed) of the input file, supplemented with the default extension for the used profile.

--acopy

Enable the acopy option to the Media::Convert::Pipe being used, which tells ffmpeg that it should not transcode the audio but just copy it from one container to another, unmodified.

--vcopy

Enable the vcopy option to the Media::Convert::Pipe being used, which has the same effect to video that --acopy has to audio.

--multipass

Enable a 2-pass transcode.

--profile

Select the profile to be used.
