QVC - Quicktime Video Converter

Automagically convert .mov videos to .mp4 so, once uploaded to JIRA, they will play directly in Chrome Alt Text

How it works

  • The tool watches for new .mov files added to a user specified folder. Once it detects a new video, it automatically converts it to .mp4
  • The videos significantly reduced the video file size (files will be from 5x to 10x smaller)

Prerequisites

  • Make sure you have NodeJs installed

  • Download and install FFmpeg

      brew install ffmpeg
    

Setup

  1. Clone this repo and the run the below to install all dependencies

     npm i
    
  2. Run the below command to create a symbolic link

     npm link
    
  3. Run the below to start the app (make sure to update the path value)

     qvc /path/to/quicktime/videos/
    

Run application in the background

  1. If you want to close your Terminal and still run the tool, you can use pm2

     npm install pm2 -g
    
  2. To start the tool in the background, run the below but make sure to update the path value

     pm2 start "qvc /path/to/quicktime/videos/"
    
  3. To stop/kill the background process, run

     pm2 kill
