Write in a path

[barabba2005]

Hi all

I'm using this command:
ffmpeg -i C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\444.mov -af astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavf i.astats.Overall.RMS_level:file=namefile.txt -f null
but the namefile.txt is wrote in the ffmpeg root folder.

Is possible give an exactly path?

Thanks in advance

Why start a new thread ?

Did you actually try using the redirect from the other topic ?

It is very confusing to discuss Windows things within ffmpegX forum (ffmpegX is Macintosh OS).

Becouse i thouught was a problem with another goal.
Not for converter but redirect a path.

Can i ask for FFMPEF in windows?

What do you not understand about asking about ffmpeg commands using Windows in a Macintosh forum..

Wrong forum or wrong question? in other words is your question about ffmpeg on Windows or Mac?

My question is about FFMPEG on Windows.

Generally your problem is OS dependent and ffmpegx is Mac application - i strongly advise to use different forum thread not ffmpegx.

If you are interested in locating file in current local folder you can use variable %CD% , if you are interested in different default OS variables just open cmd window and write SET then enter.

so in case your batch it will be something like:

ffmpeg -i C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\444.mov -af astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavfi.astats.Overall.RMS_level:file=%CD%\namefile.txt -f null

However seem you providing full path at the input then you also must provide full path for namefile.txt so your code should look more or less like bellowe:

ffmpeg -i C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\444.mov -af astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavfi.astats.Overall.RMS_level:file=C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\namefile.txt -f null

Normally this is done in a not hardcoded fashion by using variable as input argument (for example %1 for first argument) then some of this process can be automated.

Look at this:

Thaks a lot.

I've made some test but

ffmpeg -i C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\444.mov -af astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavf i.astats.Overall.RMS_level:file=C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\namefile.txt -f null -

doesn't work, in this mode FFMPEG create a file in the FFMPEG root folder with 0Kb size.

So i've solve my problem running FFMPEG from mov folder:
C:\\ffmpegfolfer\ffmpeg.exe -i C:\Users\HP-620\Desktop\Event\59\444.mov -af astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavf i.astats.Overall.RMS_level:file=namefile.txt -f null-

Sorry for diturb.
