My simple yet effective batch file-based solution for converting digital videos in Quicktime MOV format from Panasonic Lumix and other cameras to MPEG-2, MEncode.cmd, now supports wildcards, too.

Now you can run the following command to create MPEG-2 versions of all MOV files copied over from your camera:

MEncode.cmd "C:\Some Folder\*.mov"

MEncode will then take each input MOV file in “C:\Some Folder” and create an MPEG-2 file from it. The original will of course not be touched.

MEncode.cmd can be downloaded here.

This post shows how to use StaxRip, a free tool, to re-encode H.264 video into H.265 quickly by making use of GPU hardware encoding.
