Right now https://jeena.github.io/recoder/ which I just released and here is why (copied from the website):
🎬 Why Recoder?
I used to edit family videos in Kdenlive without a problem — it handled footage from all our devices without complaining. But then I switched to DaVinci Resolve, and suddenly nothing worked right. My Sony Alpha 7C, my Galaxy S24, and my wife’s iPhone all produced files that Resolve couldn’t handle without transcoding.
😤 Too Much Fuss, Too Many Steps
Every time I wanted to edit, I had to hunt down the right ffmpeg settings and manually run them on each video — a frustrating and repetitive task.
My typical workflow is simple: I create one folder per event on an external HDD and drop in videos from all our cameras. A script renames the files based on the date and time so I can easily sort them. But for Resolve, everything has to be transcoded to DNxHD — which only supports resolutions like 1920×1080 and 1280×720.
🔄 Vertical Videos? Extra Pain
That also meant vertical videos couldn’t work. So now, I rotate them during transcoding to preserve resolution and rotate them back in Resolve during editing.
✨ Enter Recoder
I built Recoder to automate this annoying step — so I could spend more time editing memories and less time fiddling with command-line tools.
In Japan sind alle Onzen Geschlechter getrennt, man geht da aber auch ganz nakt rein. Sauna ist ja auch oft getrennt. Sogar die Toiletten sind getrennt, wobei ich nie verstanden habe was man da beim händewaschen großartig anrichten kann, aber ist ja auch egal so lange man Leute nicht diskriminiert.
