Converting movies one by one Thu Jul 12, 2012 1:29 am • by Helmi
Hi,

i'm currently using Hazel to move my tv-recordings via SMB from the satelite receiver that does the recordings to a mac mini, keep the .ts (MPeg2 Transport stream) files and throw away everything else which isn't needed. I'd now like to convert them to mp4 files one after the other and throw away the .ts files.

I guess handbrake cli should be the way to go here? I don't know of any other converting tool that could work this way.

I wonder how i could make sure only one after the other file is converted and not 2 or 3 at the same time.

Any tips for that? Also for the video conversion part probably?

Thanks for helping,

Frank

Hazel works on files one-by-one so that part shouldn't be an issue. Check the Tips & Tricks forum as I believe people have posted their handbrake workflows there.
