How to watermark all files in folder with ffmpeg? (Windows)
I'm using the following command to resize and watermark videos: ffmpeg -i "input video.mp4" -s 640x480 -vf "movie=watermark.png [watermark]; [in][watermark] overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10 [out]" "output video.mp4"
With this command I have to add each video line by line. How can I simply do the same thing to all videos in a directory, and specify an output folder? I'm using Windows.

You're looking for a batch shell script. For windows you can use:
for %%a in ("C:pathtodirectory*.mp4") do ffmpeg -i "%%a" -s 640x480 -vf "movie=watermark.png [watermark]; [in][watermark] overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10 [out]" "C:pathtooutput_directory%%~na.mp4"
pause
Just paste the above in your terminal after updating your paths to files, of course.
Good Luck

Finally got this working after monkeying around with this for a few tries.
This is what I came up with that works great..
1) I put the following files/folders INSIDE the same folder with ALL of the videos I want to be watermarked.
a) ffmpeg
b) an empty output folder named "newfiles"
c) the intended watermark image named "watermark-image.png"
d) the batch file named "watermark.bat"
2) Place the following code into the bat file:
for %%a in ("*.mp4") do ffmpeg -i "%%a" -i watermark-image.png -filter_complex "overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/2" -codec:a copy "newfiles%%~na.mp4" pause
3) Works perfectly! This script will do your entire folder of videos at once.
Thanks to the contributors before me that I pieced this together from.
PS:
i. I sized my watermark png to the exact dimensions of my video for simple perfect
logo placement.
ii. Operating System: Windows 10
Kindly, Brandon

You're looking for a batch shell script. For windows you can use:
for %%a in ("C:pathtodirectory*.mp4") do ffmpeg -i "%%a" -s 640x480 -vf "movie=watermark.png [watermark]; [in][watermark] overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10 [out]" "C:pathtooutput_directory%%~na.mp4"
pause
