Batch converting JPEG and MP4 to HEIF

Photography Asked on April 13, 2021

is there a way to batch/bulk convert JPEG and MP4 files to HEIF/HEIC? There are a lot of tools to convert in the other direction one by one.

Since people asking: online converters are not suitable since the library has 300 GB of JPEG and 200 GB of MP4.
They are not able to bulk process such an amount of data.

I want to convert all files on a Windows system.

Thank you.

It seems that GIMP is capable of exporting in HEIF format (see section 1.2.2 in docs).

It also looks like Irfanview is possibly capable of it (I can't vouch for this as I am on a mac, and don't want to spin up a VM just to test). Irfanview also seems to have batch processing, which I can't seem to find in GIMP.

Recent versions of ImageMagick support HEIC so batch conversion could be as simple as

for f in *.JPG;
do
   magick convert "$f" ${f%%.*}.heic
done
