Encode videos in an html5 video compatible format

mediaplay-encode

A command line utility to encode video files into an html5 video and SmartTV/DLNA friendly format.

Under the hood, it wraps ffmpeg to encode almost any input video format into an opinionated, pre-defined output format that should work on most browsers and SmartTVs
