I just tried this again on a new install, 9.10 64-bit.
1.
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion zlib1g-dev
2.
Code:
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer
cd mplayer
./configure
make
sudo make install
Then, just do it (this command does not downscale the picture)
Code:
mencoder 00001.MTS -o 1.avi -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=10000 -fps 50 -vf scale=1920:1080
There's also another variation, a bit higher quality but about 3 or 4 times larger file size.. There's no point, actually, but anyway (if someone knows how to make video quality ALMOST identical but with smaller file size, let us know...)
Code:
mencoder 00001.MTS -o 1.avi -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vqscale=2 -fps 50 -vf scale=1920:1080
This script just works, just follow the commands above and you should be good with it!
And then converting the whole directory:
Code:
sudo apt-get install csh
Make a file, name it convert and place it in /bin -folder. Then open the convert-file and put the stuff in it:
Code:
#!/bin/csh
# For NTSC change -fps 50 tp -fps 60000/1001 below
foreach f ($*)
mencoder $f -o ${f:r}.avi -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=10000 -fps 50 -vf scale=1920:1080
end
Allow the file to execute as a program. Now, just go to your .MTS-folder and write
See all your files converting...
