convert_bik_to_webm.ps1 - How to convert bik media to webm

[LambdaCore21]

convert_bik_to_webm.ps1 is located in ...\steamapps\common\Portal 2 Community Edition\sdk_tools\converter

1. Extract ffmpeg-2022-09-22-git-af919cf780-full_build into something like C:\Program files... (using 7-zip)

2. Add the location of ffmpeg.exe to your system’s path environment variable (the path should end with ...\ffmpeg-2022-09-22-git-af919cf780-full_build\bin\ffmpeg.exe)
   

3. In PowerShell, use the command cd to navigate to the converter (the path should end with ...\Portal 2 Community Edition\sdk_tools\converter)

4. In the command prompt, run the command:
   powershell -executionpolicy bypass -File convert_bik_to_webm.ps1 [folder_name]

Where [folder_name] should be replaced by the relative or absolute filepath of the folder containing the bik’s that you would like to convert to webm’s
(don’t include the square brackets)

Will update it soon so you don't need ffmpeg on the path, and it can just go next to the script
