<h3>Transcode to H.264</h3>
<p><code>ffmpeg -i <i>input_file</i> -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a copy <i>output_file</i></code></p>
<p><code>ffmpeg -i <i>input_file</i> -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a aac <i>output_file</i></code></p>
<p>This command takes an input file and transcodes it to H.264 with an .mp4 wrapper, keeping the audio the same codec as the original. The libx264 codec defaults to a “medium” preset for compression quality and a CRF of 23. CRF stands for constant rate factor and determines the quality and file size of the resulting H.264 video. A low CRF means high quality and large file size; a high CRF means the opposite.</p>

<dt>-preset <i>veryslow</i></dt><dd>This option tells FFmpeg to use the slowest preset possible for the best compression quality.<br>
Available presets, from slowest to fastest, are: <code>veryslow</code>, <code>slower</code>, <code>slow</code>, <code>medium</code>, <code>fast</code>, <code>faster</code>, <code>veryfast</code>, <code>superfast</code>, <code>ultrafast</code>.</dd>

<h3>Convert DVD to H.264</h3>

<p>This command allows you to create an H.264 file from a DVD source that is not copy-protected.</p>
<p>Before encoding, you’ll need to establish which of the .VOB files on the DVD or .iso contain the content that you wish to encode. Inside the VIDEO_TS directory, you will see a series of files with names like VTS_01_0.VOB, VTS_01_1.VOB, etc. Some of the .VOB files will contain menus, special features, etc, so locate the ones that contain target content by playing them back in VLC.</p>

<p>Bear in mind that by default, libx264 will only encode a single video stream and a single audio stream, picking the ‘best’ of the options available. To preserve all video and audio streams, add <b>-map</b> parameters:</p>

<p>This command takes two or more files of the different file types and joins them together to make a single file.</p>
<p>However, it only works properly if the files to be combined have the same dimensions (e.g., 720x576).</p>
<p>Some aspects of the input files will be normalised: for example, if an input file contains a video track and an audio track that do not have exactly the same duration, the shorter one will be padded. In the case of a shorter video track, the last frame will be repeated in order to cover the missing video; in the case of a shorter audio track, the audio stream will be padded with silence.</p>
<p>Note that if the input files have different framerates, the output file will be of variable framerate.</p>

Each reference to a specific stream is enclosed in square brackets. In the first stream reference, <code>0:v:0</code>, the first zero refers to the first input file, <code>v</code> means video stream, and the second zero indicates that it is the <i>first</i> video stream in the file that should be selected. Likewise, <code>0:a:0</code> means the first audio stream in the first input file.<br>
As demonstrated above, ffmpeg uses zero-indexing: <code>0</code> means the first input/stream/etc, <code>1</code> means the second input/stream/etc, and <code>4</code> would mean the fifth input/stream/etc.</dd>

<p>If no characteristics of the output files are specified, ffmpeg will use the default encodings associated with the given output file type. To specify the characteristics of the output stream(s), add flags after each <code>-map "[out]"</code> part of the command.</p>
<p>For example, to ensure that the video stream of the output file is visually lossless H.264 with a 4:2:0 chroma subsampling scheme, the command above could be amended to include the following:<br>
<code>-map "[videoOut]" -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -preset veryslow -crf 18</code></p>
<p>Likewise, to encode the output audio stream as mp3, the command could include the following:<br>
<code>-map "[audioOut]" -c:a libmp3lame -dither_method modified_e_weighted -qscale:a 2</code></p>
