Calling ffmpeg from a C++ program

I have seen a similar question here How to wrap H264 into a mp4 container? and Calling a C++ function from a C program but i still need some examples to understand.

  1. How can ffmpeg command line be launched from a c++ program to for instance convert a video?

  2. Is it possible to use it in a loop for instance where there are a couple of videos in a directory which need to be converted?

I intend converting raw videos in a folder to mp4 but i want to do so using the command line.Relevant link or sample code will be most helpful.

Thanks in advance

  1. The same way you would launch any other external program using C++ program.
  2. Yes. Enumerate the videos you need, parse accordingly.
