Depending on which version of QGIS you have (3.22, 3.24 - you can
select the "translate" command in the processing toolbox (you'll find
that under gdal -> raster conversion) and either right click the tool
and run as batch process or in 3.24 you can select the batch button from
the translate menu.
You can grab all the imagery from a directory and convert it. I will
admit that batch processing does throw me off just a bit - BUT - work
with it and it should do what you want.

Hello,
I am new to QGIS.
Recently i downloaded a set of MODIS Terra surface reflectance Daily
data for a fixed rectangular area of my interest (118 daily files for
each of the bands 1-4 and for years 2000-2020), using the AppEEARS
tool (NASA-USGS-LP DAAC) in geotiff format (WGS 84; LatLong).
I wanted to convert the original data in 500 m spatial resolution
(0.0041667 arc deg; 2985 col x 1671 row for each scene) to 1 km
resolution (0.00833333 arc deg; 1493 col x 836 row), so that i am able
to create Max.value (& Min. value) Composites (MVCs) for consecutive
8-Day periods at 1 km resolution and then analyse the data sets for
matching with other 8-Day data series available at 1 km resolution
from Modis Terra sites.
No downloaded data from AppEEARS is automatically 'imported" to my
Idrisi software (neither geotiff, nor netCDF; same is the case with my
GlobalMapper 8.0 software also; the same formats from other sites get
converted easily). The file format could be read in my QGIS Desktop
software (ver. 3.18.2; Zurich), and then exported either in geotiff or
other formats (incl. idrisi) in whatever resolution, etc., i chose.
Although i am doing it file by file, this is a huge back-breaking
pre-processing task.
I was thinking if there is any tool in QGIS for automatic batch
processing of the data (say, 50 or 100 at one time, once i select the
"Raster datasets" and "add" them in the given Box under "Data Source
Manager"). Presently, after adding the datafiles, i have to select one
raster image at a time and "Export" it with the desired resolution/
file format, etc. It helps if i am able to select all the files
together, give one output resolution value and one desired file format
for all the files to be processed). It also helps if the output data
file uses the same name as given for the input file, but allows the
user to provide a short prefix to each of them (say 4-6 letters,
either replacing the first 4-6 ones, or adding to the given names).
Once i am able to pre-process the data quickly, i am thinking of
trying my QGIS for cloud removal (by providing a zero, No Data value
to the cloud pixels) and then try it for getting MVCs for consecutive
8-day periods.
Thanks for your patience, and kind regards,
amal kar.
