Developer utility

FFmpeg command tool

A small .NET utility that assembles repeatable FFmpeg commands so common media jobs do not depend on hand-edited command lines.

Case study

The need

Repeated media jobs meant copying and editing long FFmpeg commands by hand, which was slow and easy to mistype.

What I built

I built a .NET command builder that assembles the required processing steps from reusable options and runs the resulting FFmpeg command.

What changed

Common jobs are quicker to repeat, and the command setup is easier to review than a copied one-off string.

Build notes

Decisions kept practical

  • The tool wraps FFmpeg rather than replacing it.
  • Repeated command pieces are defined once and then composed as needed.
  • Keeping the scope narrow makes the utility easier to change when a job changes.

This is a personal utility. The preview uses sample filenames and contains no employer media or data.
