Is there a better webm conversion application that this?
It has problems: >file size limit doesn't see it when I put decimals, and I have to add the . to the command line manually >file size limit is ignored regardless of the set size limit >Cannot limit framerate in 60fps footage to something more suited for compact webms like 25fps >Have to manually calculate a smaller resolution than 1280x720 because the -1 function doesn't work >Sometimes the webm doesn't cut off on time, going past the size limit. If I cancel the webm conversion before it reaches the 3MB Sup Forums limit, Sup Forums will think the file length is longer than 2 minutes or something. >multithreading crashes the application because I have an AMD. (it was cheap, don't judge me)
> Cannot limit framerate Then what is this? > Sometimes the webm doesn't cut off on time, going past the size limit Calculate the bit rate manually and\or use raw ffmpeg.

as most ""video converters"" are
what is ultimately better? programming in rust or assembly? >inb4 binary
ffmpeg doesn't have any of the issues OP mentioned

That's the worst one actually, the only reason some people use it is because it has a GUI.

Command line interaction is user unfriendly and slower than a visual interface. You have to look up the commands as well, and remember them as you type them in. This is annoying if you want software that serves a purpose other than feeling like a l33t haxx0rz

you're going to have to learn something if you want to do anything advanced with ffmpeg
there's lots of gui attempts for it out there, but they're either; A. extremely simple, doing only a fraction of what ffmpeg is capable of B. a clusterfuck of buttons and sliders which is harder to use than just writing what you want out in text
once you start learning how to use it, you'll quickly realize it's just better to use ffmpeg from the command line, using the manual as a reference.
why do people hate manuals? it's like everyone tries so hard to avoid them, not realize they're only making things harder for themselves

>gitgud.io/nixx/WebMConverter I tried this. It seems to have all the functions I wanted, but after converting a 1minute and 30 second webm I ended up with a 750KB filesize instead of the 3MB limit.
I don't understand.

Look at this shit
Logan Morales
time to bite the bullet and learn how to use real software that won't do shit you didn't tell it to do friend ffmpeg.org/

I increased the bitrate manually since converting is now so fast since I can use 16 threads to I can check what it ends up as and then adjust the bitrate as needed, and it'll still be 10x faster than how I used to do it.

Manual for Ffmpeg is pretty good compared to various trash I've seen. Not to mention you can find a lot of examples featuring generic use cances.

Holy fucking shit is that some tenchu?
John Williams
Yeah bro. Tenchu is ultimate

fuck off nixx, kindly kys

You have a few options:
1. Learn FFmpeg. 2. Use the nixx version. 3. Use a video editor to convert to your settings (e.g. 60 fps) then output to webm or then recovert with the converter. 4. Write your own FFmpeg GUI wrap-around.
I use the latter 2 options interchangeably, depending on the situation.

Tried using the crop function and set it to cut off the black bars at the side. But then this happened.
