One thing important to note is that if you use linux and bash to separate commands with && versus ; && will not proceed to the following command if the previous command fails whereas ; will run the command regardless. In other words if the conversion command failed and you had it set to delete to input file after conversion, with ; it will delete the file even if the new file was not created, but with &&, the original file will not be deleted (or any other commands after the ffmpeg command). _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
