FFmpeg scripting?

[Phil Davis]

Hi Tim,

Here is a resource whose "ffmpeg basics" PDF I have found well worth the 
money:

     http://ffmpeg.tv/

I've used the same approach as Alex - constructing the commands and then 
running them via shell() - with ffmpeg, mediainfo and other apps from 
within LC.

Best -
Phil Davis
