Well, as that's not the command I suggested, perhaps you should ask whoever
gave that version.

Firstly, it looks like you're running a script, which could change things.
Take one file. Use its name.

If it is called my file.mpg use this command

ffmpeg -i myfile.mpg -vcodec msmpeg4v2 -acodec wmav2 newfile.avi

If you don't type exactly those commands, don't bother posting what
happened.
No scripts, no Handbrake. If someone is giving you those commands, you are
better off asking them.

Make sure the file doesn't start with a $. Have it start with a letter or
number NOTHING else.

I repeat. the command is

ffmpeg -i myfile.mpg (using the file name) -vcodec msmpeg4v2 -acodec wmav2
newfile.avi

Yes.
If you want the first two minutes of the video

ffmpeg -i myvideo.avi -t 120 1111.avi

The -t is for time, usually in seconds. (So if you want two minutes, use
120.)

Then if you want the next two minutes

ffmpeg -ss 121 myvideo.avi -t 120 2222.avi

The -ss is to seek position. It is not exact, but it should be close
enough for your purpose. It should be before the -i <video-name>
otherwise, it takes a much longer time.

I've never looked into that. You can make a repeating gif easily enough.

ffmpeg -i input -vf scale=320:-1 -r 10 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm - |
convert -delay 5 -loop 0 - output.gif

Which might be easier. Otherwise, I'd probably use a different command.
My page talks about combining videos into one. The easiest thing to use is
mkvtoolnix and use mkvmerge -o myfile file1 + file2 + file3.

There are probably some sizes that wouldn't work, I don't know them by
heart. :)

Sound would probably be the same, assuming you copy the audio. Do you mean
reduce it so it's 25 percent smaller or reduce it 75 percent so that it's
only 256 MB total size? You will probably lose a lot of quality.

They check the time and synchronize the computer's time. So, it isn't a
complete repair, that is, it won't fix the underlying problem, but it will
set the computer clock correctly.

The easiest way is to buy another one (they're inexpensive), put it in the
computer and see if the problem goes away. :)

It's not complicated, but as it changes with all models of computers, you
should try to find someone who knows a bit about computer hardware to do it
for you

OK
so
can I do those things:

Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (High) (H264 / 0x34363248), yuv420p, 720x576
Make the quality of every picture worse by reduce the size of picture?

Is it possible to split every ṕicture of a video.

Example

11111
22222
33333
44444

You can see this picture during 2 minutes video.

can ffmpeg do that?

11111
22222

and the other things are destroyed

or can
split ffmpeg

11
22
33
44
55

and can I make with ffmpeg out of a 2 minutes video an one hour video
by making copy paste 59 times like a time loop?

OK.

My questions:

I can convert a pic from 300 dpi to 100dpi
and can I convert a video to any size or are there some sizes only possible?

Question:
Here is a video a.avi with 1 GB
now I reduce the size of the picture to 25% and same avi-container.

Is now the space for the file 250 MB or less and the sound is the same?

Regards Sophie

No, that was my fault. In my follow up email, I mentioned that that was an
incorrect URL, sorry about that.

The ffmpeg program is not necessarily included with every version of Linux.
In addition, many distributions based on Debian, including some of the
Ubuntu programs, apparently got in an argument with the ffmpeg people, and
now they ship something callled avconv, which is very similar.

Also, the program is called ffprobe, (not ffmprobe).

I'm not sure what you mean by general way. As I said, the original format
you asked for is deprecated, so I wouldn't try to use it since the second
one did work and is easy to find.
