\fBffcvt\fR \- ffmpeg convert wrapper tool
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
ffcvt [flags] [video_filename]
.SH "OPTIONS"
For \fBflags\fR, run \fBffcvt\fR without parameters to see the comprehensive list and explanation\.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Command \fBffcvt\fR is an easy to use video converter that takes the burden of such daunting task from normal Joe, to harness the fantastic high efficiency audio/video codec/encoding capability long been available in \fBffmpeg\fR, by simplifying the convoluted \fBffmpeg\fR command line parameters\.
.P
To encode a video, all you need to do is to give one parameter to \fBffcvt\fR, i\.e\., the path and file name of the video to be encoded, and \fBffcvt\fR will take care of the rest, using the recommended values for both audio/video encoding to properly encode it for you\.
.P
It can't be more simpler than that\. However, beneath the simple surface, \fBffcvt\fR is versatile and powerful enough to allow you to touch every corner of audio/video encoding\. There is a huge list of environment variables (or command\-line parameters) which will allow you tweak the encoding methods and parameters to exactly what you prefer instead\.
.P
Moreover, to encode a directory full of video files, including under its sub\-directories, you need just to give \fBffcvt\fR one single parameter, the directory location, and \fBffcvt\fR will go ahead and encode all video files under that directory, including all its sub\-directories as well\.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
\fBffcvt\fR comes with comprehensive online documents\. For further details, please go to:
