ramdomize the execution of the command echo 'hello world!'

It happened to me that I got a season of a tv-show which had all files under the same folder like /home/blah/tv_show/season1/file{1,2,3,4,5,...}.avi

But I like to have them like this:

/home/blah/tv_show/season1/e{1,2,3,4,5,...}/file{1,2,3,4,5,...}.avi

So I can have both the srt and the avi on one folder without cluttering much. This command organizes everything assuming that the filename contains Exx where xx is the number of the episode.

Takes an mpeg video and coverts it to a youtube compatible flv file.

The -r 25 sets the frame rate for PAL, for NTSC use 29.97

-vn removes tha video content, the copy option tells ffmpeg to use the same codec for generating the output

The quality ranges between 0 to 9, with the smaller number indicates a higher quality file but bigger too.
