Have latest VLC on Win 7 Pro.

I Want to convert multiple Videos into a .MP4.

I load the videos. Multiple videos as it allows.

Set the conversion to .MP4 and start VLC converting.

Use the append -converted to the filename

After each conversion it says I have to choose Keep or Overwrite.

It will NOT accept KEEP so only Overwrite is available. When done, I
only have ONE conversion. I tried KEEP after each file of the multiple
group.

This is NOT multiple conversions if I have to interact for each file.

Then not be able to get each file converted.

Only one file seem to be converted.

So what is going on ?

Anybody use VLC for multiple file conversions ?

How is it done ?

The FFMPEG program allows both conversion and concatenation.

And it does exactly what you tell it to do, because
it is "command line" programming at its finest.

To concatenate files with FFMPEG, you give a filelist.txt

ffmpeg -f concat -r 30000/1001 -i filelist.txt -c copy N:\concattest2.avi --- fix bogus rate

The rate is approximately 29.97 FPS.

My filelist.txt apparently looked like this. Twelve videos.

file 'G:\WORK\a00.avi'
file 'G:\WORK\a01.avi'
file 'G:\WORK\a02.avi'
file 'G:\WORK\a03.avi'
file 'G:\WORK\a04.avi'
file 'G:\WORK\a05.avi'
file 'G:\WORK\a06.avi'

I simply first convert all files to same forma,e.g. XVID and MP3 then I
use VirtualDub and simply open the first file then using "Append ..."
menu item open the rest one after the other in order I want. Then I
simply "Save As". If you set "Direct Stream Copy" for both audio and
video it's very fast. Result is sane quality as original files.
