Hello, i am having issue where i am running command:
echo "Input video filename or path to convert and hit enter:"
read -r i
echo "Quality: 25=identic, 30=a bit worse but small file size, or other numbers:"
read -r q
ffmpeg -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -i "$i" -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload' -c:v hevc_vaapi -f mp4 -rc_mode 1 -qp "$q" "$i.hevc.mp4"
It asks to input the file name or path to file, i add it in various ways:
"/home/me/file name.mp4" '/home/me/file name.mp4' /home/me/file name.mp4 "file name.mp4" file*
etc. but it always says: “…”: No such file or directory
yet. when i copy and paste the path it says does not exist and do stat or ls, it is found, so i really do not know how that command and input should look like?
When i rename the file to file.mp4, then the ffmpeg accept it. So what is the universal input format to use no matter which characters and spaces the file name contains?
