Converting mkv to mp4 with `ffmpeg`

Essentially just copy the existing video and audio stream as is into a new container, no funny business!

The easiest way to "convert" MKV to MP4, is to copy the existing video and audio streams and place them into a new container. This avoids any encoding task and hence no quality will be lost, it is also a fairly quick process and requires very little CPU power. The main factor is disk read/write speed.

With ffmpeg this can be achieved with -c copy. Older examples may use -vcodec copy -acodec copy which does the same thing.

These examples assume ffmpeg is in your PATH. If not just substitute with the full path to your ffmpeg binary.

This used to be a draft of my blog post "Finding the SqueezeBox Radio Default SSH Password".

Free O'Reilly books and convenient script to just download them.

How to use:

Take the download.sh file and put it into a directory where you want the files to be saved.
cd into the directory and make sure that it has executable permissions (chmod +x download.sh should do it)
Run ./download.sh and wee there it goes. Also if you do not want all the files, just simply comment the ones you do not want.

The repository for the assignment is public and Github does not allow the creation of private forks for public repositories.

The correct way of creating a private frok by duplicating the repo is documented here.

For this assignment the commands are:

Create a bare clone of the repository. (This is temporary and will be removed so just do it wherever.)
