# FFMPEG-Based-Video-Compressor

 A script based on FFMPEG running through WSL, which compresses videos for targeted filesize

 

 Requirements;

 WSL with:

 `sudo apt install ffmpeg`

 `sudo apt install jq`

 

 Usage;

 Drag and drop video file (all FFMPEG supported ones) onto the corresponding batch file and wait for FFMPEG conversion to happen.

Configuring the values in the config;    

"size" This value sets the maximum file-size the output video may have, such as 8M representing 8 Megabytes.

"quality" The general quality the video will retain, 0 being practically lossless, 17 visually lossless and anything higher slowly worsening.  

"audiobitrate" Defines the bitrate the audio runs at

"vertical/horizontalresolution" Self explanatory, defaults to 720p 16:9

"preset" At what speed the program will compress the video, has a considerable impact on compression efficiency
