Dedicated to the creators and supporters of free and open source software
FFmpeg is much more capable than this, but it is this intuitive interface and support for a wide variety of formats that has won it millions of users.
The FFmpeg project was originally started by a French programmer named Fabrice Bellard in the year 2000. It is now being developed by a large team of open source software developers spread around the world.
This book can serve as an easy FFmpeg tutorial, hack collection, and a ready reference. However, it is not possible for one book to cover everything that FFmpeg can do. FFmpeg has a very huge online documentation with which you may have to craft your commands. While this book may seem more than enough for most users, the documentation will open up vastly more possibilities. DO NOT avoid going through the documentation.
libav libraries: These are FFmpeg programming software or libraries that are used by programmers to create audio/video processing software such as media players, browser plug-ins, and audio/video editors. The libav libraries have been used to build some parts of popular software such as VLC, xine, Blender, and Kodi.
ffmpeg command-line program: This is the FFmpeg end-user software that most people can use. The ffmpeg command-line program internally uses the libav libraries.
In this book, we will ignore the libav libraries and instead focus on the ffmpeg command-line program.
All code snippets used in this book are available in a plain-text file, complete with chapter and section titles and comments. It is actually a MarkDown/CommonMark file. You can easily convert it to an HTML, ODT, DOCX, or PDF file. Conversion instructions are in the text file.
Videos of several code examples used in the book are available in an online video playlist.

The publisher Apress who insisted on not using any third-party video in the screenshots, as the author did in the original self-published book (FFmpeg Quick Hacks). Most screenshots in this Apress book were taken from the authors own videos. The rest used videos and images that were in the public domain (Archive.org, Pixabay.com, and Unsplash.com). This led to a rewrite of most of the content, and in the process, several mistakes were eliminated.
