Description: graphical video and audio batch converter using ffmpeg
WinFF is a graphical user interface for FFmpeg. It will convert almost any
video file that FFmpeg will convert. WinFF does multiple files in multiple
formats at one time. You can, for example, convert mpeg's, flv's, and mov's
into avi's (or DVD/VCD format or MPEG or 3gp etc.) all at once.
This package provides a variety of preset conversion settings for common
formats and devices. These presets are intended to hit the "sweet spot" for
each individual codec. They have been written with a tip of the balance to
quality.
For most presets to work, it is necessary to have the unstripped version of the
libavcodec package, which can be obtained by installing libavcodec-extra-## as
suggested by this package. It might be necessary to enable additional
repositories to find that package.
