            Bug ID: 374799
           Summary: Feature request - ability to convert video files
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.3.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: BatchQueueManager
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: roger.foss at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Some of my older video files recorded with a digital camera are .MOV files
containing Motion JPEGs with audio. I would like the ability for digiKam to
convert these to a different format, say AVI, MP4 etc.

Preferably video file conversion should be possible with the batch tool.

One of my reason for this feature is that uploading old MOV files to Google
Photos causes them to get today's timestamp. This may be caused by the lack of
metadata / timestamps in the original .mov files.

I would like to see digikam be able to call FFMPEG or some other tool with
appropriate parameters to convert video files.
