Today I needed to convert an MP4 video, shot via cellphone to MPEG, so it will be viewable on a all platforms.
ffmpegX Main Window
As a Mac user, I wanted to do the conversion on my Mac. I searched the web and found the application ffmpegX, which is a nice front end for the open source project ffmpeg.
ffmpeg, is a tool for playing and converting a movie or audio file from one format to another. The process itself is called transcoding.
ffmpegX includes many video and audio codecs – MPEG, MP4, AAC, Flash (FLV), etc.
Even though it has some UI quirks, ffmpegX is a great tool for converting movies and audio files from one format to another.
Great information! I’ve been looking for something like this for a while now. Thanks!
Very enjoyed this! Well done!
