andbrake is arguably the most popular open source video converter, but it isn’t the only game in town. One of its peers is Shutter Encoder, which exposes the video-editing prowess of FFmpeg via a graphical interface.
Right off the bat we’ll tell you that Shutter Encoder doesn’t have what you’d call a pleasing interface. A large part of this is due to the fact that unlike editing images, video editing is an involved and cumbersome process. On top of that, FFmpeg is a dexterous tool, and rolling all its functions into a graphical interface results in Shutter Encoder looking rather busy.
