i cannot fix her. I’d let her read the wiki or just install canvas
I find it wild there are countless “convert videos online for free!” sites on the Internet full of bonus malware which are all just thin wrappers around ffmpeg. And yet they persist because people want googleable answers to their problem which don’t need a command line or downloading anything.
Personally I’ve got a Python script which provides a slightly friendlier wrapper around ffmpeg for my common use-cases.
But honestly ffmpeg is such a beast, so much of what we use daily depends on it under the hood.
Why learn when you can do what I do and look it up every single time you want to do something as though you are but a goldfish who learned to type?
Humans are fish who learned to type. And on average pretty golden
It’s very simple.
ffmpeg -i input_file <deep-dark-magic-you-should-be-afraid-of> output_fileCouldn’t be simpler.

fr feels like its own programming language
This is literally only for the ffmpeg filters 😅
I fucking love the default video. Classic.
the video it pulled for cross-fade was fun too
More like ffmpreg amirite?
Why do you need to learn ffmpeg
Wanting to do anything with video for one
don’t let your dreams be dreams
create that ffm pegging video
Not true. You can:
- create
- delete
- copy
- move
- spend an afternoon with windows movie maker
- think you are creating but forgot to reinstall the sd card
- upload to youtube without any editing like a boss
So many things you can do without ffmpeg
YouTube uses ffmpeg to convert the video, even if you don’t edit the video.
Does it still convert if you upload in its formats (AV1 & Opus)?
You really named probably the only video editing software that isn’t using
ffmpegsomewhere.I guess I should clarify that I’m talking from a video engineering perspective.
