INPUT=$*
OUTPUT=$(basename $INPUT .MTS)
### Fast version, just copies streams to mp4, but failed on one MTS file
#echo ffmpeg -i $INPUT -c:v copy -c:a aac ${OUTPUT}.mp4
### Slow version, re-encodes, but works on every file
echo ffmpeg -i $INPUT -y -c:v libx264 -crf 23 -c:a aac -b:a 128k ${OUTPUT}.mp4
