Convert MKV to MP4 Using Avidemux Command Line?

Computer Help
1

I have several x264 MKV videos that I need to convert to MP4 format without re-encoding. With Avidemux GUI, I can easily achieve this by copying the video and audio streams from the MKV file and then changing the container to MP4. Now, I want to automate this process for all the files in a specific folder using Avidemux’s command line interface (CLI).

You can use to create a batch (.bat) file to convert MKV to MP4 using Avidemux command line. Here is some example code:

set avidemux="path\to\avidemux_cli"
set videocodec=Copy
set audiocodec=Copy
set outfmt=MP4
for %%f in (*.mkv) do %avidemux% --load "%%f" -video-codec %videocodec% --audio-codec %audiocodec% --output-format %outfmt% --save "done/%%f.mp4" --quit
  • Place this code in a text file and save it with a .bat extension (e.g. convert_mkv_to_mp4.bat).
  • Make sure to create a folder named “done” to save the converted files before running the script.
  • Double click the batch file to execute it. It will convert all MKV files in the same directory to MP4 format using Avidemux command line interface.
