This shell script lets the user convert their .mp4 video files to .mov video files.
BlackMagic's DaVinci Resolve does not have support for .mp4 files on Linux, so this might come in handy if someone plans to edit videos with DaVinci Resolve on Linux.
Download or clone (git clone https://github.com/AAVVIronAlex/MP4-to-MOV.git
) and then go the .sh file to the directory your video is stored in, use the cd
command to do that. When at the location in the termninal simply type ./mp4_to_mov_converter.sh
in the terminal.
This might take some time depending on the speed of your computer.
After the video has been converted it will appear in the folder called transcoded
in the same directory as the ./mp4_to_mov_converter.sh
file is.
To run this shell script you will need the ffmpeg
terminal program.
If you do not have ffmpeg
installed you will have to download it.
