ffmpegGUI

by the HaikuArchives Team

ffmpegGUI is a graphical interface to help constructing the commandline for ffmpeg to encode/convert video files. You can also encode files directly with ffmpegGUI and avoid having to open Terminal to paste the assembled ffmpeg commandline. You can also create encoding jobs to process them all in a batch later.

Building ffmpegGUI

It's very easy, just a make followed by make bindcatalogs to include translations.

For the Help menu to work, the contents of the "documentation" folder needs to be copied to, for example, /boot/home/config/non-packaged/documentation/packages/ffmpeggui.
