I am using Shotcut CLI  and it is quite good for converting mov videos to mp3. It is a command-line interface (CLI) of Shotcut, a free, open-source video editor. While Shotcut is primarily known for its graphical user interface (GUI), it also provides command-line capabilities that allow users to automate video editing tasks or perform batch processing without manually interacting with the GUI.

Below is an example of batch converting mov to mp4 on a Windows 11 PC:

for file in *.mov;  do 
     shotcut --MLT "$file" -o "${file%.mov}.mp4" done
