Design and implementation of multimedia format converter based on FFmpeg

Abstract

FFmpeg is free software licensed under the LGPL or GPL. It is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. But it's complex and inefficient to use, for it doesn't have a GUI (Graphical User Interface). We develop a multimedia format converter with GUI based on FFmpeg, which is designed and implemented based on Qt framework, under Linux environment. It is more efficient and convenient for users than ffmpeg.exe. Its GUI is concise, and easy to use and update. Users can use it to convert the file from the source format to any other format they want without complex settings. © 2012 Springer-Verlag GmbH.
