Context: We use HBBB to batch-convert videos we record (we used to record in the .mkv format when using OBS, but as of 9.27.22, we use Bandicam to record .mp4 files, and we plan to use Streampix to record .mp4 files in the future. The .mp4 files recorded at 70% quality in Bandicam can be further compressed with HBBB!) into smaller .mp4 files. These compressed .mp4 files are then processed through our actigraphy pipeline, and ultimately used for HomeCageScan.

We can give HBBB multiple source folders (see settings pic below <- 9.27.22 TO DO, HBBB currently in use) and multiple destination folders. Once started, HBBB will convert files in the source folders and make new compressed .mp4 files in the destination folders.
