Movie Audio Compressor (MaC)

A Python script to quickly compress the audio dynamic range of video files, preventing large volume fluctuations (e.g., to play a movie at night, or at low volume).

Note: Original file format and subtitles are preserved, video track remains untouched

Requirements

• Python 3.6+
• FFmpeg (Add to PATH)
• colorama pip install colorama

Usage

1. Drag and drop file(s) directly onto the script (files that don't include an audio stream will be ignored)
2. Select audio track (if multiple are available)
3. Choose output directory

Configuration

Modify CONFIG at the top of the script to adjust:

• Audio codec and bitrate _{Default: AAC 320kbps}
• Audio filter settings _{Default: Custom downmix to stereo (see FFmpeg documentation) and use of dynaudnorm for compression}
• Console window size
