The avconvert command is a new addition in OS X Lion that allows administrators to quickly and easily convert video from one format to another using presets for video conversion. The presets are mostly common Apple formats tuned to specific devices.

/usr/bin/avconvert --preset Preset640x480 --source /Convert/test.mov --output Converted/test.mov
