Video as a Code

It’s all about using: https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg

For Linux:

#sudo apt update && sudo apt install ffmpeg
ls *.MP4 | sed "s/^/file '/; s/$/'/" > file_list.txt #add .mp4 of current folder to a list
ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i file_list.txt -c copy output_video.mp4 #original audio
#ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i file_list.txt -c:v copy -an silenced_output_video.mp4 #silenced video

You can also do same tricks for Windows like so, as seen here

#choco install ffmpeg -y
#ffmpeg -version #I got the version 7.1-essentials_build
Get-ChildItem -Filter "*.MP4" | ForEach-Object { "file '$($_.Name)'" } | Set-Content file_list.txt
ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i file_list.txt -c copy output.mp4 #simple join

Converting Video

If people around you have iphones…

The main difference between iPhone .mov and .mp4 files is the format, compatibility, and intended use: .mov is Apple’s native format designed for high-quality video editing on Apple devices, while .mp4 is a globally accepted standard optimized for compatibility and efficient sharing across platforms.

Lossless Container Conversion (no re-encoding): This transmuxes your MOV to MP4 instantly if both audio and video codecs are already compatible with MP4, preserving quality.[3][5]

ffmpeg -i input.mov -c:v copy -c:a copy output.mp4
