How to transform a cmd AND this ffmpeg command to a batch file ?

[kngw]

Hi,
I'd like to learn how to transform this (ffmpeg command) :

ffmpeg -c:v h264_cuvid -i 891.mkv -c:v hevc_nvenc -map 0 -rc vbr -cq 29 -qmin 29 -qmax 29 -tag:v hvc1 891-x265.mkv

AND this (cmd command) :

"C:\Program Files\MKVToolNix\mkvmerge.exe" --ui-language fr --priority lower --output ^"C:\Users\kngw\Desktop\test\891-x265-finished.mkv^" --language 0:ja --display-dimensions 0:1920x1080 --chroma-siting 0:1,2 --color-range 0:1 --language 1:fr --default-track-flag 1:no --language 2:ja --default-track-flag 2:yes --sub-charset 3:UTF-8 --language 3:fr --track-name 3:Forced --default-track-flag 3:no --sub-charset 4:UTF-8 --language 4:fr --track-name 4:Full --default-track-flag 4:yes ^"^(^" ^"C:\Users\kngw\Desktop\testo\891-x265.mkv^" ^"^)^" --title "" --track-order 0:0,0:2,0:1,0:4,0:3

into a batch file.
I can execute the two commands in a row for this file, it is working.
But I'd like to use these two commands to make a batch in order to take all the files in a folder called "Original" which is composed of 1033 videos named "1.mkv" up to "1033.mkv" and to execue both commands on these, then put them on a "Export" folder.
(Currently these commands put the new files in the same folder, so I need to make a batch file which export to another folder)

I'm a newbie so maybe it's easy, I don't really know how everything works.

Still asking.

Check if this works:

for /R D:\Original %%i in (*.mkv) do ffmpeg -c:v h264_cuvid -i %%i -c:v hevc_nvenc -map 0 -rc vbr -cq 29 -qmin 29 -qmax 29 -tag:v hvc1 "%%~pi%%~ni-x265.mkv"

It is working! However, how to do the second part of the code in this batch file?
Thanks.

Try this - create the .cmd file, place a shortcut for it on the desktop, and then just drag&drop input files on it (but set ffmpeg path properly)

@echo off
SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS
set t0=%TIME%, %DATE%

for %%F in (%*) do call :main %%F
goto finalmessage

:main
 SetLocal
  echo -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know how I can thank you, it's fabulous !! Thank you very much, it's working perfectly.

However, if I don't want to keep the "-x265" files (not the one with -finished), how can I edit the code to delete them ? Or at least put them on a "Temporary" subfolder ?

Just add suitable command to the end of main block:

"mkvtoolnix string ...."
del "%~dp1\%newdir%\%~n1-x265.mkv"

here %~dp1 - path to the input file, %newdir% - variable for the output folder, %~n1 - input file name
