Hi fellow sailors,

i have lots of downloaded... ISOs... that i need to converto to save space. I would like to make them all of the same size, let's say 720p, and same format, let's say h265.

I am on linux and the... ISOs... are sorted into a neatly named hierarchy of sub-folderds, which i want to preserve too. What is the best tool (CLI) for the scope? I can use ffmpeg with a bash script, but is there anything better suited?

OK, I installed tdarr and... Well, not impressed. Quite messy, low quality UI and... Paid features. Meh

Tomorrow will try Unmanic, feels much more refined, I will see.

Nothing against "paid" in tdarr, just doesn't seems worthwhile given the low quality of the UI.

I am sure I am judging the book by the cover, but hey, even the Unmanic documentation feels better.
