Free batch file utility software for windows

Livid Batch Export Utility 1.26 is created to be an easy to use yet effective tool for Mac OSX and Windows XP program with which you can recompress and resize a folder of quicktime media to a different format. Many live video applications perform best with a low-cpu intensive codec, such as PhotoJPG, but the variety of codecs your video library may vary wildly. Movies downloaded from the internet, shot with a DV camera, or captured with a video digitizer will all be encoded in different formats: the Batch Export Utility lets you unify your library in four easy steps.

It can also be used to compress movies for internet delivery and streaming, enhancing clips by adjusting the brightness and contrast, upsampling and resizing clips for use in a video editing program, or exporting the first frame as a still image thumbnail.

Enhancements: May include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Domain Change Configuration Utility is a free and useful utility that will come in handy.

A few command line utilities to simplify the batch script editors life a bit. all tools are released under the terms of the gnu gpl (except for 3rd party units), delphi 7 sources are included.
Some of the utilities (crc1632, direxist, macid and nocrlf) can also be compiled with turbo pascal 5.5 to create a dos version of them.
The package contains these tools:
Crc1632 calculate the crc16 or crc32 for files or text from stdin
Direxist test for directory existence. sets errorlevel to 0 if the given path exists, and to 1 otherwise (similar to "if exist xyz\nul", but also works on remote and ntfs drives)
Display view and modify display settings from the command line (resolution, frequency, bit depth)
Errlv sets the errorlevel to the given value
filesize sets the errorlevel to the size of the specified file. new as of version 08-21-2005: filesize now can compare a files size to a reference value (bugfix in 08-21-2005a)
Flushdrv flush windows file system buffers (similar to un*x sync, successor of the former flushdrv download)
Forcedir creates a whole directory\subdirectory\... path at once
gpcvreg/gpscript these two programs can modify w2k/xp local group policy files ("registry.pol") via commands from textual control files
Ini2reg reads data from an ini-file and stores it in the registry
instfont install or uninstall fonts via command line
Iskeydown checks if one or more keys are pressed (also control, shift etc.) and sets the errorlevel
Logger enhanced "echo" command, output additional information (like date, time, username...) to a logfile and/or stdout

Moveex can rename or delete files which are currently locked at next reboot
Msgbox displays a windows message box and sets the errorlevel depending on the user input
