Hello, I would like to know what "Ffmpeg" programs with a graphical interface would you recommend. I personally use Axiom regularly for MP4 to WEBM conversions, but I would like to know your opinion.
Sorry for my bad english

Dunno, I've never settled on one. I'll install one, use it for a while, run into something absolutely silly or broken about it, find a different one, and repeat the process. Haven't tried Axiom before, I'll give it a look.

Ok, thks for you opinion :)
If it's for e621, I would just use the basic ffmpeg CLI. I keep a .txt file with ffmpeg commands, their explanations, and other advanced PC operations that I won't remember next time I need them. The fewer steps between ffmpeg and the source file, the better. Don't want third-party programs using unasked for pre-configured settings on top of your file conversion. Don't want them hiding or excluding functionality either, as GUIs often do.
For other uses, a lot of programs come bundled with ffmpeg and/or ffprobe to do some needed media operations, but the user won't have much control over that. Technically, those are GUIs with ffmpeg lol. StaxRip is a capable multi-encoder using ffmpeg and other stuff. Has a preview but not really an editor. Development was on hiatus for a while, but a new dev came in and has been doing a lot of work.

Thanks, I'll take a look at its functionality and see how it works for me.
Could this help if I don't know the basic "Ffmpeg" configurations very well?
Edit:I already took a look at the program and it impressed me, it has more "freedom" when configuring the audio, video codecs, etc. Thank you for your recommendation Abadbird

^^^^ This! Saner ones will actually provide you a copy of the command line that they'll send to the CoDec program (ffmpeg or FLAC or whoever).
