I'm developing a system which needs to store videos in the form:
/path/to/video/<md5 of the file> So I do not have an output extension. I'm using ffmpeg to convert those videos, but it seems that it uses output file extension to determine the output format, so here's my problem.
Due to the fact I don't have an output extension in file names, is there a way to specify the output format directly in the command line without create temporary files or dirty solutions like this ?

ffmpeg is a command-line tool that converts audio or video formats. It can also capture and encode in real-time from various hardware and software sources such as a TV capture card. ffplay is a simple media player utilizing SDL and the FFmpeg libraries.
FFmpeg can input most container formats natively, including MP4, . ts, MOV, AVI, Y4M, MKV, and many others. This is the output file. No switch necessary; just the file name.
Use the -f parameter to tell ffmpeg which output-format to use. E.g
ffmpeg -i input.mpg ... -f mp4 output.mp4 If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
