Media Transcoding

bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills

This wraps FFmpeg in preset-driven bash and Python scripts for video normalization. You get five presets (web_standard, mobile, ultra_compact, archive, web_high) that handle resolution capping, CRF encoding, and faststart flags so you're not Googling FFmpeg syntax every time. Batch mode lets you convert entire directories with one command, and it backs up originals before touching them. The practical win is consistency: same output quality across projects without maintaining notes or reinventing flags. If you're preparing videos for web delivery or compressing a media library down to reasonable sizes, this handles the repetitive parts and logs everything for audit trails.

Media Transcoding (FFmpeg)

Overview

Use FFmpeg presets to normalize video outputs for web streaming, mobile delivery, or archival quality. Your hf-videos repo already includes a simple bash script and a more advanced Python script with presets, backups, and logging.

Quick Start (hf-videos)

./ffmpeg_convert.sh check
./ffmpeg_convert.sh web_standard "My Video.mp4"
./ffmpeg_convert.sh batch_web_standard

Outputs are written to converted/ with backups in backup/ and logs in conversion.log.

Preset Summary (hf-videos)

web_standard: 1080p max, CRF 23, 128k audio, +faststart
web_high: 1080p max, CRF 20, 192k audio
mobile: 720p max, CRF 25, 96k audio
ultra_compact: 480p max, CRF 28, 64k audio
archive: original res, CRF 18, 256k audio

All presets use H.264 + AAC with +faststart for streaming-friendly MP4s.

Batch Workflow

Run a single-file conversion first to validate output.
Run batch conversion once the preset is confirmed.
Verify output sizes and playback.

Batch commands:

./ffmpeg_convert.sh batch_web_standard
./ffmpeg_convert.sh batch_mobile
./ffmpeg_convert.sh batch_ultra_compact
