How can I convert a 1080p video to a 720p video, preferably without any external software? If so, can this be done in a Command Prompt?

It cannot be done in Command Prompt as it won't be able to re-encode a video from higher to lower resolution. Use software like Handbrake or Any Video converter to do the same for you.

Also check this command line video converter.

  • Or how about just using [ffmpeg](http://askubuntu.com/questions/99643/how-can-i-convert-a-1080p-wmv-video-to-a-720p-video)? Works on Windows too. – Rik Dec 18 '13 at 10:13
