Requirements

• python
• python-argparse
• ffmpeg
• libavcodec-extra-52

Usage

A simple script to provide a simple, easy to use interface to calculate a span of time between two dates. To be able to calculate a future date based on a span of time. To illustrate the difference in time using conventional methods that are technically accurate.

usage: mp4ize.py [-h] [--version] [-a RATE] [-b RATE] [-v] [-w WIDTH]
                 [-t HEIGHT] [-i] [-4] [-n THREADS] [-o dir] [-f]
                 file [file ...]
