Batch processing FLVs on Linux

Hello,

Does anyone know of an application for Linux that can batch process video files, or better yet 'watch' a folder for video files to process, and convert to FLV files?

I know that Sorenson's product has this capability but it doesn't run on the Linux platform. I am hoping to upload video files to a server, have them automatically processed to FLVs and play them back using the Flash Media Server app.

Thank you.

I would suggest you give Flix Engine a try. It is a transcoder that works on Linux and I believe it can do what you are looking for. The other solution that won't work on Linux yet is called FlipFactory by Telestream. Flip is a transcoder that will monitor specific areas you want and automatically transcode files. I have been nagging Telestream to death to make a Linux port of it, and yet they haven't.

Let me know what you come up with. I couldn't get Flix to work properly on my Gentoo Linux OS, but it may work on yours.

Good luck.

You can do the video but not the audio!

Maybe you can do it by ffmpeg?
