I was going to write an app to do all this - and may still do that (just no time at the mo). No iTunes integration which I will be adding to the script.
A script can be automated within windows so simple.ģ. It also leaves the original in the source location which messes with my servers as they show duplicates on my players.Ģ. No backup of my files - I only want to delete them once I am happy the conversion was 100%. $BackupFile = $SourceFile.Replace($MoviesFolder, $MoviesBackupFolder)ġ. New-Item -ItemType File -Path $BackupFile -Force $BackupFile = $SourceFile.Replace($TVShowsFolder, $TVShowsBackupFolder) & $HandBrakeCLI -i $SourceFile -o $TargetFile -preset=$HandBrakePreset $TargetFile = ::GetDirectoryName($SourceFile) + "\" + ::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($SourceFile) + ".m4v" $Prox = Get-WmiObject Win32_Process -Filter "Name like '%powershell%'" | select-Object CommandLine | where | sort $HandBrakeCLI = "C:\Program Files\Handbrake\HandBrakeCLI.exe" $MoviesBackupFolder = "E:\Backups\Media\Movies\" $TVShowsBackupFolder = "E:\Backups\Media\TV Shows\"

I will update the second post if your changes are worthy Any new content will then be converted and backed up.Įnjoy! And if you have any better ways to do this, feel free to comment. Automate it to run at specified intervals. So depending on the size of your collection, expect it to take some time.ġ. On my Quad Core 3.2Ghz Xeon server, it converts around 1GB per 15 to 20 minutes depending on the codecs uses in the source file. You can delete files from your backup location once you feel satisfied that Handbrake did it's job correctly. Ensure you have sufficient write permissions in your backup location. Once completed, it will move the original source file to your backup location. The converted file is stored in the same location as the original source file. This script will find all *.mkv,*.avi,*.mpeg,*.mpg files in collection and convert them to m4v.
I had to open Handbrake and instantly it updated it's preset list.
#SUBLER TVDB INSTALL#
On initial install of Handbrake the script failed as it could not find this preset. I chose AppleTV 3 as it is the most current. $HandbrakePreset: This is the preset to use. $HandbrakeCLI: This is the app used to do the actual work.
#SUBLER TVDB MOVIE#
$MoviesBackupFolder: Once a Movie is converted, the original file will be moved to this folder retaining the folder layout. $TVShowsBackupFolder: Once a TV Show is converted, the original file will be moved to this folder retaining the folder layout. $MoviesFolder: This is the root folder for your Movies. $TVShowsFolder: This is the root folder for your TV Shows Usage: Set the first 6 variables with you root paths Run Powershell as Administrator and execute the following: Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned If you have an issue running this script it is more than likely permission related.
#SUBLER TVDB MODS#
If you make any handy mods to the script please post it here and I will update the first post with it. The second post contains the script and the post will be updated as the script is updated. The script was only written yesterday and still in it's early stages. For this I use Handbrake with a PowerShell script. I decided to convert my collection to m4v for native compatibility with XBox and ATV. Videozilla offers a simple and clean solution to convert video files into other format. SWF, FLV, F4V, MPEG-4 (iPhone/iPad/MP4/ IPOD/Mobile/PSP/Tablet), 3GP, 3G2, M4V, MKV, VOB, DAT, WEBM, OGM, OGV, Blu-ray, MTS, M2T. Top Software Keywords Show more Show less
