>>> I wish there was a nicer, contextual UI for ffmpeg.

There was one on HN a while back with a graph based UI with nodes and stuff.

Had a brief look but can't find it now.

Handbrake works pretty well for many use cases too, although it doesn't expose nearly everything you can do with ffmpeg.

On the Mac there is ff·Works. It is a terrific GUI for ffmpeg. The way it works fits my brain better than the command line interface. I can stack up a bunch of jobs with any of the parameters I need and it munches right through. Works on a single file or 60 files with different setup for each one. Cheap and actively maintained.

Thanks, this looks really good.

Also, as someone trying to sell my own apps, I appreciate the no-bullshit pricing and the structure of their product page.
