find: missing argument to -exec

Question

I was helped out today with a command, but it doesn\'t seem to be working. This is the command:

find /home/me/download/ -type f -name \"*.rm\" -exec ffmpeg -         


        

Answer 1

I figured it out now. When you need to run two commands in exec in a find you need to actually have two separate execs. This finally worked for me.

find . -type f -name "*.rm" -exec ffmpeg -i {} -sameq {}.mp3 \; -exec rm {} \;
