mov2mp4

A bash script that converts QuickTime .mov videos to .mp4 using ffmpeg.

• ffmpeg — install with brew install ffmpeg

# Convert a single file
./mov2mp4.sh video.mov

# Convert multiple files at once
./mov2mp4.sh clip1.mov clip2.mov

# Convert all .mov files in the current directory
./mov2mp4.sh *.mov

Output files are saved alongside the originals with the .mp4 extension.

• Video is encoded with H.264 (libx264) at quality level 22
• Audio is encoded with AAC at 192k
• Files are optimized for web streaming (faststart)
