Having trouble with something I think should be pretty simple...

Hi All,

Having a bit of trouble with setting up my first work flow and it feels like what I am trying to do should be really easy to setup in FFAStrans, but I am hitting a wall.

I record with OBS and the end results are mkv files with multi-track audio. I have a little batch file that I run that basically repackage the mkv file into a mp4 with no quality loss.

The part of my batch file that does the magic is: ffmpeg -i "filename.mkv" -c copy -map 0 "K:\filename.mp4"

What is the best way to replicate this in FFAStrans?

Thanks in advance

Hey youknowgeekfu, thank you for using ffastrans ;-)

For mimic the ffmpeg command you write, you need at least 2 processors in your workflow:
1) Encode - custom ffmpeg: uncheck audio and video codec (but set the correct extension at bottom) and enter "-c copy -map 0" in Options.
2) Deliveries - folder

For mimic the full stuff end to end (including recording with OBS) i would need to know a lot more details ;-)

Let me know at what specific spots you have problems.
cheers,
