Thanks for sharing, really helpful!
do these commands work just the same way on windows 10?
Thanks for sharing. I found that StreamFab can help you convert Netflix to MP4, then you can play them on most devices. You can learn more by https://streamfab.com/ .
Great discussion !
By the way if you want some dvd processing tools, theses one are highly recommanded.

Read this article published by KeepStreams very helpful
After conversion, would you think about enhancing the video quality? Here an AI video enhancer software offers a turnkey solution.
Wouldn't it be much easier to use video compressor software? There are quite a few wonderful and high quality video compressors out there.

ffmpeg is video compression software (among many other things), as far as I can tell the only difference is that you run it from a command line instead of a GUI, and it's free.
does anyone know why I do not get any audio when I use ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vcodec h264 -acodec mp2 output.mp4 or ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vcodec h264 -acodec mp3 output.mp4?
I found a solution that works with ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vcodec h264 -acodec copy output.mp4 but it does not solve the problem with the audio converting and I would really like to know what's the problem with the audio
tbh I got a pretty niet 650M file out of 2.7G
