FFMPEG convert and scale videos or GIFs to MP4
Raw
ffmpeg_covert_n_scale.txt
## Simple script i use to convert larger files or GIFs to smaller MP4s for using in BlueSky or Discord.
## Change the 'SOURCE' to whatever path to your file. And change 'EXPORT.mp4' to whatever you want the final file to be.
## The 'trunc(iw/2)' gives you control of scale. '/2' is half size, '/4' is quater size, etc.
ffmpeg -i SOURCE -movflags faststart -pix_fmt yuv420p -vf "scale=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2" EXPORT.mp4
