It would be helpful if the RunTime duration be in terms of minutes rather than milliseconds. Question3-- Can the ffprobe handle multiple files e.g. ‘NCIS*.wtv’ _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
