Until one melts your drive :-) Of late I'd been doing a lot of stuff with 'ffmpeg'. It's an all-purpose tool BUT to get what YOU want often involves ten or fifteen CL flags and such AND in a particular order. Plenty of 'examples' to be found online - not all agree with each other. Basically you need the skills to put the evil eye on such 'free' code BEFORE you run it, looking for that little 'gotcha'. Look up those commands, their params, the 'why', before you go too far. Being a computer jock, even in the AI age, is a learned skill ... not something Granny can just jump into.
