convert.sh

#!/bin/bash -x

#This script is a simple bash script that checks the directory (and subdirectories) that it is
#run in and tries converting any ISO images to H.264 videos using Handbrake. You will need
#dirname installed on your machine along with HandBrakeCLI.
#
#WARNING: It WILL change the extensions of your .iso images to .osi. Comment the second to last
#line in the script if you do not want this to happen.
#
#Be sure to edit the script and change "/path/to/converted_movies" to whatever directory you
#want the converted files to be placed in. The script is written to create a folder in this
#directory with the name of the name of the directory the ISO image is found in. In the case
#of subdirectories, the directory name in the converted directory is created with the name of 
#the "root" directory and the filename the same as the source file, sans .iso extension. See below for an example.
#
#../Movie Name/A Subdirectory/Another Subdirectory/Example.iso
#
#will result in
#
#../path/to/converted_movies/Movie Name/Example.mp4

#Enabling debug mode so we can see what is happening.
