So I have found this neat guide on converting video quality https://gist.github.com/dvlden/b9d923cb31775f92fa54eb8c39ccd5a9

To convert a video to 480p I run the following

ffmpeg -i input.mov -preset slow -codec:a libfdk_aac -b:a 128k -codec:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -b:v 1000k -minrate 500k -maxrate 2000k -bufsize 2000k -vf scale=854:480 intro-480p.mp4

However currently I am doing this to transcode and add a watermark to all our videos in a directory

find /home/video/archive -type f -execdir ffmpeg -i '{}' -filter:v drawtext="fontfile=/root/FreeSans.ttf:text='www.website.com':[email protected]:fontsize=26:y=h-line_h-30:x=w/20*mod(t\,120)" -f mp4 -vcodec libx264 -preset fast -profile:v main -acodec aac -movflags +faststart '/home/video/watermarked/{}.mp4' \;

However I am having trouble combining these two commands into one. Whatever I try the watermark doesn't show, just the quality changes to 480p. How can I achieve both with one command? Also please add it to the command above so I can convert all files in a folder.

Use

find /home/video/archive -type f -execdir ffmpeg -i '{}' -filter:v "drawtext=fontfile=/root/FreeSans.ttf:text='www.website.com':[email protected]:fontsize=26:y=h-line_h-30:x=w/20*mod(t\,120),scale=854:480" -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:v libx264 -preset slow -b:v 1000k -minrate 500k -maxrate 2000k -bufsize 2000k -c:a libfdk_aac -b:a 128k -movflags +faststart '/home/video/watermarked/{}.mp4' \;
