Sometimes need to compress a few videos quickly, but few services allow you to do that or you don’t want to use them at all to save time or your privacy.
Then you might want to consider FFmpeg and a slick trick in the terminal:
mkdir res; for i in *.mov; do ffmpeg -i $i ./res/${i%.*}.mov; done
- mkdir res — will created a folder for processed videos
- in *.mov — is responsible for the file extension on the input
- ${i%.*}.mov — indicates the file extension of the output
