file-converter

A file converter made with AutoHotkey and ffmpeg.

File types supported (input and output):

Audio Video Image
.aif .avi .gif
.flac .flv .ico
.m4a .mkv .jpg
.mp3 .mov .png
.ogg .mp4
.wav .webm
.webm

Installation

Since ffmpeg.exe is greater than 100 MB, it has to be uploaded to GitHub using LFS, and therefore has to be downloaded separately. To download it, simply click on the ffmpeg.exe file in the file tree, and then click Download. Finally, replace the placeholder file (called ffmpeg.exe but is only one kilobyte large) that was downloaded with the rest of the code with the file you just downloaded.

Alternatively, the ffmpeg.exe file can be downloaded directly from ffmpeg.org.

If you are using File Converter.exe, ffmpeg.exe has to be in the same directory as File Converter.exe for the program to work properly.

Usage

image of UI

This program gives you the ability to convert a single file or a multiple files at once.

Single File

To choose the file to convert, click File... and then locate and select the file in the browser that pops up.

After that, choose the extension you want the converted file to have. You are also able to decide whether you would like to keep the original file or have it deleted after the conversion is done.

In this example, I am converting a .jpginto a .png and deleting the original file.

To convert the file, press Convert. The converted file will be found in the same location as the original file.

Multiple Files

To convert multiple files, place them all in a folder, and select that folder after pressing Folder.... The program will search through subfolders for more files, so make sure all the files within the selected folder are files you want to convert.

After selecting an extension, the program will attempt to convert ALL files within the selected folder into that file type.

In this example, I am converting a folder of videos into .mp4s and not deleting the original files.

To convert the files, press Convert and wait for the conversions to complete. The converted files will be found in the same location as the original files.
