If you mean to change only the container format then I believe the following command will work: $ ffmpeg -i foo.avi -f mov -acodec copy -vcodec copy foo.mov Otherwise if you want to transcode the video to those commonly associated with the mov container format than the following command should do the trick: $ ffmpeg -i foo.avi foo.mov Reading some ffmpeg documentation would be a good idea as well. -- Raymond Lewis Rebbeck -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
