			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Recently, don't ask me how this happened because I have no idea, the PIN of my Laptop changed. I thought, no problem, I'll just log into my Micro$oft Account and create a new one. Things are never quite that simple. The email address I used is long since dead and unrecoverable. <br />
<br />
In any case, I had a number of Batch files to do various things with <a class="contentlink" href="https://www.videohelp.com/software/ffmpeg" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">FFMpeg</a>, such as add thumbnails to MP4 files in bulk. I managed to recreate several of them but they are have a common problem. I can't remember the batch command to read a filename, do whatever, (such as add an image as a thumbnail), then save the file with the original filename, then move on the the next one.<br />
<br />
Can anyone refresh my 70ish failing memory here? I would appreciate it very much. :)<br />
<br />
Ax</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I have a video that has speech in a foreign language. I would like to ultimately convert the speech to English subtitle/caption for this video.<br />
<br />
Looking for local computer, offline software that does speech to text conversion, preferably, directly to English. That is, automatic language translation from foreign language to English text caption/subtitle, all done in one step.<br />
<br />
Least desirable option is for the software to convert the video foreign speech to foreign text first. This means that translating the foreign text would have to be done manually later as another step to translate to English text captions/subtitles.<br />
<br />
I don't want to use any online service as I don't know what else, if anything, these online services will do with the uploaded videos?<br />
<br />
Preferably the conversion/translating software should be free.<br />
<br />
And post translation, it should be possible to directly edit the converted/translated English text as translations are often not accurate.<br />
<br />
Thank you.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I'm having difficulty removing black borders from an mp4 with <a class="contentlink" href="https://www.videohelp.com/software/HandBrake" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Handbrake</a>. I'm a novice. I <i>think </i> I want the image to stretch/distort rather than crop, but I'm also wondering if it thinks that the black borders on the top and bottom are part of the picture, so maybe a crop would work better? Bizarrely, in my first attempt, the black borders had shrunk to an acceptable width, but later when I re-opened it, it had reverted back to wide borders. I've attached an image of the dimensions tab. Can someone tell me what values to enter?<br />
