iPod Video Encoder is a command line tool for convenient encoding of video files for use on iPod video. iPod Video Encoder project uses the ffmpeg tool for the actual encoding.
It features recursive encoding of all files in a directory, and generating a podcast.xml file for convenient use in iTunes.
It can be used in a cron job that periodically checks directories for new files and encodes them without user intervention.
Main features:
- Encoding of single files
- Optional specification of a/v bitrates
- Recursively encode all files in a directory
- Generating a podcast.xml for convenient use in iTunes
Options:
--version show programs version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-R, --recursive Process directories recusively
-f, --force Force re-encode existing iPod videos
-t, --test Only encode first 10 seconds, to produce test videos
-e EXTENSIONS, --extensions=EXTENSIONS
Comma separated list of input extensions. Default: avi
-i IPODEXT, --ipodext=IPODEXT
iPod extension. Default: .ipod.mp4
-b VIDEO_RATE, --video-rate=VIDEO_RATE
Video bit rate, in kbps (default: 1024)
-a AUDIO_RATE, --audio-rate=AUDIO_RATE
Audio bit rate, in kbps (128)
-W WIDTH, --width=WIDTH
Video width, in pixels (default: 320)
-H HEIGHT, --height=HEIGHT
Video height, in pixels (default: 240)
-P, --pretend Do not really encode, just print out the ffmpeg
commands which would be executed
-v, --verbose Enable verbose output

-p, --podcast Generate a podcast.xml file for each directory.
--podcast-documentroot=PODCAST_DOCUMENTROOT
Podcast document root; eg. /var/data/Movies/
--podcast-baseurl=PODCAST_BASEURL

Video::Frequencies is a Perl module that has many, many frequency constants and lists.

SYNOPSIS

use Video::Frequencies;

while (my($name,$list) = each %CHANLIST) {
print "$namen";
while (my($channel,$freq) = each %$list) {
printf " %-4s %9dn", $channel, $freq;
}
print "n";
}

This module exports (yes, exports!) frequency constants as well as hashes with channel => frequency relations for digital and analog video and audio broadcast. Another, shorter way to put it is "worldwide channel/frequency list". All frequencies are given in kHz.

Its a good idea to use perldoc -m Video::Frequencies to get an idea on how the various constants and lists look like.

thin liquid film project is an application which allows linux users to quickly and easily convert video files into a format suitable for playing on the video capable ipods. I wrote this application, after purchasing a video ipod, and being frustrated that the only real option for converting video was either via command-line, or via a servicemenu with no ability to configure the resulting video file.
TLF uses the ffmpeg engine to do the encoding. It is written in pyqt, so it should work with a default kde installation, and is very easy to install.
