FFAStrans forum

Hello,

I need to encode some DVCAM files, so I use ffmbc in a Command Executor process. The syntax is:

%ComSpec% /c ""ffmbc" -loglevel quiet -i "%s_original_full%" -r 29.97 -ac 2 -aspect 16:9 -target dvcam "%s_original_path%\Resultado\%s_original_name%.dv""

FFMBC needs the output filename as a parameter. The way I wrote the command makes the workflow to end after the command (I think). How should I change the hardcoded output filename in the command to have the possibility to use other processors and continue the workflow?

Hey LCA,
welcome to the forum and thank you for using FFAStrans!

Thats easy, in the cmd processor you fill in the input "Set %s_source% variable to:"

"%s_original_path%\Resultado\%s_original_name%.dv"

The next processor will work with your generated dv file as source file.

Check out how %s_source% works here:

You could aso set s_source using a populate variables node.

It worked.
Thank you.
