==== Automatisiertes Konvertieren ====

This is a typical scenario for find and xargs:

  $ find /path/to/basedir -name '*.avi' -print0 | xargs -0 convert.sh

where -print0 and -0 ensure the proper handling of names with spaces.

And in convert.sh, you have your for loop, almost the same as in your first script:

<code>
#!/bin/bash

for i; do
        d=$(dirname "$i")
#       b=$(basename "$i" | cut -d. -f1)
        FILE=(basename "$i")
        b=${FILE%.*}
        ffmpeg -i "$i"  "$d/$b.mp4"
#        ffmpeg -i "$i" -c:v libx265 -crf 23 -c:a copy "$d/X265_$b"
done
</code>

for i without anything means the same as "for all arguments given", which are the files passed by xargs.

To prepend the filename with a string, you must split the name into the directory and base part, and then put it together again.
