i want to write the program which can convert .TS file to .MP4 file by using FFMEG.exe, but I meet some problem with coding below.

1.I try to write code command into cmd.exe by give commend control into ffmeg.exe to convert .TS to .MP4 at any folder I need but I don't know how? and when it finish convert .mp4, it can auto to close the cmd screen.

2.I try to create one button click to browse my current folder where I being running the application from. I still can't find any solution about it yet.

I really hope someone can't help me about it.

What I have tried:

VB.NET
Imports System.Threading
Public Class Form1
    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim FileName1 As String = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(OpenFileDialog1.FileName) 'Get only Flie name without extension
        Dim FileName2 As String = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
        Dim programName As String = "ffmpeg.exe"

        System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(Application.StartupPath & "\" & programName)
        Process.Start("cmd.exe", "/k ffmpeg -i " & FileName2 & " -c:v libx264 " & FileName1 & ".mp4")

    End Sub

    Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
        Dim R1 As DialogResult = OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
        Dim path1 As String = OpenFileDialog1.FileName 'Get part file
        Dim FileName1 As String = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(OpenFileDialog1.FileName) 'Get only Flie name without extension

        If R1 = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
            txt1.Text = path1
        End If
        Button1.Enabled = True
        TextBox1.Text = FileName1
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Button1.Enabled = False

    End Sub

    Private Sub bFolder_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles bFolder.Click
        Process.Start(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyComputer))
    End Sub
End Class

You can use FolderBrowserDialog Class (System.Windows.Forms) | Microsoft Docs[^].

If you want the cmd window to close when it finishes then use the /c option.

could you help me to full statement to control the cmd.exe , when it start to process to convert .TS to .MP4, let it create into any specific folder we need, example i want to create mp4 into folder name "Down" and when it finish create file, it auto close the cmd.exe


Process.Start("cmd.exe", "/k ffmpeg -i " & FileName2 & " -c:v libx264 " & FileName1 & ".mp4")

If you type the command into a simple cmd window yourself, you can see, and check, exactly what you need.
Mr.Kim2050 27-Apr-21 7:14am    
what is difference between /K and /C ?
In addition to Richards answer, see this CodeProject article: FFMPEG Video Converter with Progressbar VB.NET[^]

You can use the Application.StartupPath Property[^] to get the directory where your application is running.
