A small script that takes source_dir, image, destination_dir. All it do is to get all mp3s from the dir and convert them to music videos with one image for the whole song. Like the most youtube videos are. It's really handy if you need to upload a lot of songs to youtube.

songs_to_videos.rb

if ARGV.member? 'help'
	print <<-help
		first argument is directory with all the songs you convert to videos
		second argument is the image you want to put on the videos
		third argument is directory where videos will be saved
	help
else
	dir_with_songs = ARGV[0]
	image = ARGV[1]
	output_dir = ARGV[2]

	Dir[File.join(dir_with_songs, '*.mp3')].each do |s|
		song_name = File.basename s, '.mp3'
		`avconv -i "#{s}" -loop 1 -shortest -i "#{image}" -r 24 -acodec copy "#{File.join(output_dir, song_name)}.mkv"`
	end
end
