    Hey, I am looking for a way to automate downloading and remuxing files for iOS consumption.
    I have done the downloading and extracting part which was the easy part.

    What I want it to do next is automatically detect new mkv files in certain folders and put them through XMedia Recode which seems to be the best mkv to mp4 repacking app I have found for Windows. Now I can probably find a way to monitor a folder and trigger a script and the script is what needs to have the information to put the file through XMedia Recode. The only thing that XMedia needs to do is convert the audio, and the video is just left as it is using the "video copy" option.

    I can't even find a way to keep "video copy" a default option in XMedia Recode.

    I could not find anything on Google or this forum related, the closest I got was someone else asking the same question.

    Thanks in advance!

    I don't think it's possible with xmedia recode.

    Maybe easier with some command line tools like ffmpeg or check other mkv to mp4 tools like mkv2mp4.

    Yeah I've started to try things with batch scripts for ffmpeg.
    So far, I've been able to convert all the files in the directory and it's sub folders successfully however if I want to move the converted files after conversion it says:

    Code:
    A duplicate file name exists, or the file cannot be found
    I am using the line :

    Code:
    MOVE "*.mkv" "D:\Movies\English\converted"
    Any advice on how to get them to be moved after conversion otherwise they'll be converted again when I run the script again.
