encode-xav-68bt

A command line ffmpeg wrapper for encoding videos in a format suitable for playback on the Sony XAV-68BT head unit.

The encoder matches input files with the file extensions .mkv, .mp4 and .webm.

Output files are downscaled to a width of 720px, saved in the .avi format at 3000k video bitrate, with MP3 audio at 192k bitrate. These encoder settings are not currently configurable.

Installation

Install ffmpeg (e.g. with choco install ffmpeg -y if you use Chocolatey).

Run npm install -g encode-xav-68bt from a command line.
