Having to separately download ffmpeg in the windows distribution does not really make sense
Just bundle it

People that use GUIs/tools for things like ffmpeg, rclone etc really want the developer to autodetect if they have it already, and use that instead of installing a separate version/binary.
How do I know? I built one (

I disagree, I don't want another ffmpeg binary, I already have one. Winget works well, especially since this is already a terminal program.
