      Hello I share this script to run it on the PC if anyone can use it.

      The script in this case converts all mp4 and mkv files in the folder where you run it to an Ubuntu Touch readable mp4. The script does not delete the originals, it will put them in the Converted_videos folder at the same level.

      #!/bin/bash
       
      mkdir Converted_videos
       
      for i in *.mp4
      do
          withoutExtension=$(echo "$i" | cut -f 1 -d '.')
          ffmpeg -i "$i" Converted_videos/"$withoutExtension".mp4
      done
       
      for i in *.mkv
      do
          withoutExtension=$(echo "$i" | cut -f 1 -d '.')
          ffmpeg -i "$i" Converted_videos/"$withoutExtension".mp4
      done
      

      I also share the original entry in Spanish
