Creates remote or local incremental backups. The new backup folders are created by only uploading the changed content and creating hardlinks for the rest. The backup directory will look something like:

convert-videos

Converts all videos from a directory (recursively) with ffmpeg to arbitrary formats.

• Output in a separate or source folder (respecting & creating the subfolders)
• Works for Audio (mp3, ogg,...) and Video (avi, mp4, mkv,...)
• Comparison of filesizes before & after and warning if no reduction was achieved
• Naming conventions and ffmpeg details can be changed with parameters (or in the script)
• creates log file (with size difference and code to move old files to the trash)
