Description-en: ffmpeg convert wrapper tool
ffcvt - ffmpeg convert wrapper to make it simple to do high efficiency
audio/video compression (Opus/H.265) encoding, and for youtube as well.
.
The next-generation High Efficiency Video codec, HEVC and VP9 can produce
videos visually comparable to libx264's, but in about half the size;
Meanwhile the Opus audio codec is becoming the best thing ever for
compressing audio -- A 64K Opus audio stream is comparable to mp3 files of
128K to 256K bandwidth.
The ffcvt makes use of such fantastic high efficiency audio/video
codec/encoding capability while shielding people from the
complicated ffmpeg command line option settings, while versatile
and powerful enough to allow advanced users to touch every corner
of audio/video encoding.
