How do you convert an entire directory with ffmpeg?

Question

How do you convert an entire directory/folder with ffmpeg via command line or with a batch script?

Answer 1

Only this one Worked for me, pls notice that you have to create "newfiles" folder manually where the ffmpeg.exe file is located.

Convert . files to .wav audio Code:

for %%a in ("*.*") do ffmpeg.exe -i "%%a" "newfiles\%%~na.wav"
pause

i.e if you want to convert all .mp3 files to .wav change ("*.*") to ("*.mp3").
