Same question. This not works for me: extractor:
reddit:
client-id: <HIDDEN>
user-agent: <HIDDEN>
postprocessor:
gif to mp4:
name: exec
async: false
command: ffmpeg -i {} {}.mp4 && rm {}
event: after
filter: extension == 'gif'this works: extractor:
reddit:
client-id: <HIDDEN>
user-agent: <HIDDEN>
postprocessors:
- name: exec
async: false
command: ffmpeg -i {} {}.mp4 && rm {}
event: after
filter: extension == 'gif' |

@whoizit Very late reply but it appears you aren't referencing your postprocessor in your first snippet. The following may have a better chance at working (haven't tested it): extractor:
reddit:
client-id: <HIDDEN>
user-agent: <HIDDEN>
postprocessors:
- gif-to-mp4
postprocessor:
gif-to-mp4:
name: exec
async: false
command: ffmpeg -i {} {}.mp4 && rm {}
event: after
filter: extension == 'gif' |

Not sure why that weird YAML-style formatting is used here, but the postprocessor for a specific extractor is defined like this: {
"extractor":
{
"reddit":
{
"subreddit":
{
},
"postprocessors": ["nonpicsort"]
}
}
}So, it's "postprocessorS". "postrpocessor" is defined like this: You can define postprocessors there, and then activate/use them from any (sub-)extractor options. |

Right, but this is the first time I've ever seen it used by someone in issues or discussions.. I mean, it's simple enough, and you can mentally map from TOML or YAML to JSON and back on the fly easy enough, though I personally still prefer JSON. It's human-readable enough in my opinion, and it makes potential issues easier to spot, I think. Whatever, if I see someone posting config stuff here in YAML in the future, I'll just assume that someone knows what they are doing 😄 |

In the next section is my gallery-dl.conf which has done well for me to-date. ;) As issues have occurred I've researched and kinda plugged-in what appeared to resolve my issue-of-the-moment. I do wonder at how to properly implement the two sections:
"postprocessor":
&
"extractor": > "postprocessors":
Are they the same?
Are they in the wrong place?
In my setup, are they actually setup properly to effect anything, lol?
Ultimately my goal is to ensure all video formats encountered are converted to mp4, regardless of the site found (avi, gif, m4v, mkv, mov, webm).
Discussion continues beyond the below gallery-dl.conf.
I know nothing in the above addresses the below. In the next section is the output I am getting from a Reddit link. Note the "error" from that output, immediately below.
Discussion continues past the below.
I just did some copy/pasting of what I think such might look like, but where do I plug it in? Forgive me if it's just a baddddd job..
"postprocessor": ?
"extractor": > "postprocessors": ?
