FFmeg CLI under Linux - dummy how to sets the path ?

[feelart]

Well, it's stupid I can use the ffmpeg CLI under Windows and not under Linux.

Under windows, these 2 methods work:


Either I open a Dos window, go to the folder directory of the file I want and launch:
ffmpeg -i test.avi -acodec copy r.mp3


Or If I'm in root C, this also works

ffmpeg -i "c:\Documents & Settings\Angel\Mes Documents\Downloads\test.avi" -acodec copy "c:\Documents & Settings\Angel\Mes Documents\Downloads\test.mp3"


Now, under Linux
Method 1 does not work, nor

ffmpeg -i "\mnt\sda2\Documents & Settings\Angel\Mes Documents\Downloads\test.avi" -acodec copy "\mnt\sda2\Documents & Settings\Angel\Mes Documents\Downloads\test.mp3"

Of course sda2 is mounted.


What do I miss??

I've no idea why method 1 isn't working without seeing an error message.

The last example is going to fail because you're using backslashes. The path should be "/mnt/sda2/" etc

OK working, it's case sensitive !I typed as input file

test.mp4 instead of test.MP4
