ok thanks for that, I also updated the bash script to check if ffmpeg or handbrakecli is running. This is my first bash script.

I know {sourcelocation} is the directory, but I want the script to check for and {sourcelocation} subdirectory.


Code:
#!/bin/bash
# ffmpeg and mencoder script
# Grab thumb from avi, start encoding to ITU h264 using mencoder, ffmpeg is doing thumb processing

# Bash script for operating system Ubuntu 8.10 
# packages used : FFMPEG, MENCODER ,MPLAYER ENCODING ENGINE
# VIDEO CODEC ITU H264 AUDIO MP3
