The Digital Video Information Network - View Single Post - best workflow to download, edit, upload 600 video files

Ali Jafri · November 21st, 2008, 01:30 AM

Hi people. In a bit of a fix and need some help with this.

There are 600 .MOV files of around 50Mb and 5min each on a website that I need to download, edit, render to flv, and upload to a video sharing site such as youtube.

Before I start on this heavy task I wanted to see what you guys think the best workflow should be. Is there any way I can batch download from the site? I want to download them in serial fashion meaning one by one rather than all together. That way I can start editing and rendering them out immediately. I also want to batch render them in large chunks. Then I have to batch upload them to Youtube.

Anyone got a good, workable, intelligent way of doing this? I'd love to know!

Thanks!
