Hi,
Many thanks for your reply. Yes, sorry, what I meant is convert preserving the maximum quality. I tried the options you suggested and it worked: ffmpeg.exe -i test.mov -vcodec mpeg4 -q:v 2 test.mp4 What I had tried before that didn't work (I got the "qscale option is ignored" warning) was the exact same command without the -vcodec option fmpeg.exe -i test.mov -q:v 2 test.mp4 Why does it work with the -vcodec mpeg4 option you suggested, and not without? Anyway, many thanks for your help. It does work now.

Since this is nearly impossible, the unavoidable question is: Why? Or do you want to ask: I want to convert to a WMP-compatible mp4 file loosing as little quality as possible? > I have tried to do this using the qscale option, but Yes, -vcodec mpeg4 -qscale 2 is a possible solution. > a warning appears saying qscale option is ignored. Command line and complete, uncut console output missing.
