mogrify Batch conversion of BMP > TIFF
Posted: 2011-03-08T15:46:49-07:00
I am trying to convert a folder full of BMP images to TIFF. They are individual frames from a movie.
they are all named by their frame number
I have tried a number of commands but the one i really thought would work is this
which gives me this error
or this
which gives me the same error code
it doesn't seem to like the wildcards
what am I doing wrong? I saw examples just like this online and I've searched all around for the answer, it must be really easy!
