FFmpeg.app is a web-based front end to FFmpeg, the free and open-source application and libraries for processing of video and audio files. Its purpose is to serve as an easy front-end to this powerful tool, so anybody can discover and use it with no setup (or command-line access) necessary.

Honestly, I generally just ask ChatGPT with very good results.

I was thinking that it'd be good if you could combine chat GPT with this web app prompt but I don't know much about how it works and I thought you'd have to do something to tailor it to this use. Does just plain old chat GPT accessed via the public website already know the correct commands for FFMPEG and is capable of translating written English requests in to the appropriate set of commands? That's fantastic if so.

Yes, you can ask it and see. Sometimes it misses, but it's generally easily fixable, sometimes you can even ask it to fix it.

It not only gives you the command with a handy "copy" button, but also explains why it chose each argument.
