Miro Video Converter is super simple way to convert almost any video to MP4, WebM (vp8), Ogg Theora, or for Android, iPhone, and more.
This is an in-progress rewrite of the existing application. If you're looking for that code, it's over here.
- Python 2.7
- FFmpeg
- FFmpeg2Theora (for conversions to Theora/Ogg)
- GTK2 and its Python bindings (for the GTK UI)
On Debian/Ubuntu, that looks like:
$ sudo apt-get install -y python2.7 ffmpeg ffmpeg2theora python-gtk2
$ git clone http://github.com/pculture/mirovideoconverter3
$ cd mirovideoconverter3
$ python2.7 test/runtests.py # Unit tests
$ python2.7 -m mvc.ui.gtk_ # GTK interface
$ python2.7 -m mvc.ui.console [filename to convert] [conversion type] # console interface
