image

Features

  • Handles most simple FFmpeg tasks
  • Can process directories
  • Allows additional parameters
  • Progress bar (rudimentary)
  • Extra animations

Installation

Installing FFmpeg (Prerequisite)

If you don't have FFmpeg installed, the program usually helps you download and install it automatically (sometimes administrative privileges). If the installation fails, you can install it manually:

Windows

  • Using winget: 
    winget install "FFmpeg (Essentials Build)"

Linux

  • Not sure how to do it

Method 1: Download Precompiled Executable

  1. Visit the Releases Page
  2. Download the latest .exe program
  3. Run the program

Method 2: Git Clone

  1. You should know how

Usage

  1. Drag and drop files into the window or select files
  2. Enter parameters (optional)
  3. Select the target format
  4. Click the Execute button
  5. Wait for the conversion to complete

Parameter Examples

Input

-ss 00:00:10 -t 00:01:00

Output

-vf "scale=1280:720,transpose=1" -af "volume=2" -b:v 1M -b:a 320k -c:v libx264 -crf 23

Explanation:

  • -ss 00:00:10: Start processing from the 10th second of the video
  • -t 00:01:00: Process for 1 minute
  • -vf "scale=1280:720,transpose=1": Apply video filters
    • scale=1280:720: Scale the video to 1280x720 pixels
    • transpose=1: Rotate the video 90 degrees clockwise
  • -af "volume=2": Apply audio filters
    • volume=2: Increase volume by 2 times
  • -b:v 1M: Set video bitrate to 1Mbps
  • -b:a 320k: Set audio bitrate to 320kbps
  • -c:v libx264: Use libx264 video codec
  • -crf 23: Set Constant Rate Factor to 23

For more details, see the FFmpeg Documentation.

P.S.

  1. Single files will be saved in the same directory with the format xxx_converted.xxx, and folders will be saved in the converted_files directory.
  2. To disable progress animations, create a text file named no_animation_plz.txt in the same directory (contents of the file don't matter).
  3. The program will not automatically exit unless something goes wrong. Normally, If "Finished" is displayed immediately after execution and the window animation continues, it means finished easily, OR FFmpeg encountered an error. You can close it at this point.
  4. I don't know coding, this is just a project for fun.
  5. No matter what happens, try to assume it's normal.
