Bash script to autmatically adapt media formats. Contribute to gardiol/media_fixer development by creating an account on GitHub.

(crossposting, because i think it can be interesting here too)

I like my video collection nicely organized and omogeneous as formats, codecs and resolution.

I know there are already pleanty of solutions like Tidarr, but i find them a bit too much for my needs, and also pretty complex to use.

I wrote a simpler approach in a bash script called “Media Fixer”, the URL is at the top of this post.

Feel free to check it out, play with it. I hope it can be useful for others as well as me.

It’s released under the GPLv3.

    Very cool and nice share !!

    I’m also an organize freak and also have my own bash script to loop over my files and encode everything to AV1 :).

    While my script is ugly as fuck (not a coder here so I’m doing what I can XD) it works and fills my need.

    I won’t use your script directly, however I will take inspiration of your bash script code ! That’s okay I guess?

    Thanks for sharing with the community !!

    seems handy. hardware acceleration would be cool but it can be a clusterfuck on linux

      There is no real need for GPU, since its not ideal to use GPU for storage. GPU transcoding is better suited for streaming, and it has lower quality than CPU transcoding.

      Anyway, just enable it by setting the proper ffmpeg flags as stated in the readme and there you go.
