Hello all: Id like to kno if theres an app that can do my video conversions output functions in the following way. Id like to take a folder that has several folders within, which each have several videos within to be re-encoded or converted, and Id like to throw that top folder into the window/cue/etc of the app, and then have a setting where the outputed converted videos all land in the SAME folder that their source videos originated from. Does anyone know of an app [for Mackbook pro’s], either free or paid, that can do this? Or if not, perhaps a way to make eg Handbrake do this, as it cant in its normal settings?
Theres a Windows app called Pezarra that does this in the “output directory” dropdown menu as “The same as input file”. Its brilliant! But i need this function on my Mac. Thanks for any help!
 
You can always try to make something yourself with HandBrakeCLI or ffmpeg.

Info: Same Path as Source
Thanks Kryten-looked like it had potential but the thread authors came to discuss that their windows solution isnt available on Mac. And Pezara's app is way better/easier on Windows than Handbrake on either platform. Im getting hopeless....:(

Paid for Shutter Encoder but cant get it to work yet. All videos go thru process but at end show a window saying all video failed. Still workin on it.

The app functionality does not depend on the amount paid. That is a donation request, it can be set to 0 $.
