Converting media to m4v format using ffmpeg

Rails
1

Can anyone help me convert media to m4v format. I guess ffmpeg would
be a nice choice coz I have a rails application where I need to do the
conversion. I google, but could not find the solution.

BTW I am using jplayer for playing video which only takes m4v video
file and thats the reason I need to convert video submitted by user.

Thanks in advance.

I just used FFmpeg to merge video files. Personally, it’s complicated to operate. Now, I am making use of Joyoshare Media Cutter. It’s an easy-to-use and all-in-one video editor. Not only can it convert media files to any other format at 60X speed without quality loss but also give various editing options. You can try it to convert your media to M4V.

Well, did you try using other editors?

I was also wondering about this. Does anyone have an idea about this? Kindly share!

I am just using third-party programs such as movavi video converter because it has all the formats I need.

Are there any alternatives? I use linux, and does it convert gifs to mp4?

try cloudconvert, it should work for you

I have never heard of the FFmpeg tool. In my opinion, this is just software that has little functionality and is well advertised on the market. I prefer to use more professional software with an intuitive interface. I’m talking about programs like Movavi Video Converter. It supports all popular formats and changes video format without losing quality—more details on how this program works here.

ffmpeg is super simple to do this with. Are you meaning to do this in a Rails environment?
