Notes

• Don't mind the terminal! Convertophile interfaces with FFmpeg through terminal commands. This means the terminal is the easiest way to display real-time progress to you, the user.
• The embedded video player does not support some video formats. It's a limitation of Windows video codecs, and is why the FFplay button exists. FFplay will open a playback window and supports most video formats.
• If you discover any bugs, have any feature requests, or would like for a video format to be added, please make a post in the Itch.io community forums.

Future Road Map

• Hardware acceleration
• Advanced settings (e.g. change codecs)
• More video formats
• General improvements
• Batch video conversions

Licensing and Credit

This application is built with the power of the open-source tool FFmpeg. It wouldn't be possible without it. And, because the version of FFmpeg I am using falls under the LGPL license, I have made its executables accessible to replace in Convertophile's directory. You can download replacement builds here.
