In 2003 or 2004 I had a job doing video installations with Linux systems in a variety of museums. That was the first time I learned about FFMpeg. Used it for everything, still one of the first things I install on any system, and whenever I need to do anything with video conversion or resizing or taking a slice out, I use FFMpeg. It is awesome.

Although, after all these years I still have to look up every single incantation except for the most basic things.

Wish it was easier to get Nvidia's encoder working with it. Too often it maxes out my CPU and the GPU is idle.

On most Linux package managers these days, FFmpeg is built with support for hardware encode, decode, and filtering out of the box.
