I have a bunch of mkv files that I'm trying to convert their audio while copying the video with this command:

for %i in (*.mkv) do ffmpeg -i "%i" -c:a aac -ar 44100 -b:a 128k -c:v copy "?"

I want ffmpeg to rename the output files into either "output1.mkv" "output2.mkv" etc or to copy the source names and add converted to them, for example, "X.mkv" into "X converted.mkv" etc.

Since you've used %i as your variable with for,

%~ni = File name
%~xi = File extension
(See for /? for more.)

So use "%~ni converted%~xi".
