Frequently Asked Questions

Which video formats are supported?

Supported formats depend on your FFmpeg build, but common formats like MP4, MKV, MOV, and AVI are supported.

Is FFmpeg included?

The package includes example FFmpeg command templates. For licensing reasons, you should provide or install FFmpeg on the server. The script can use a bundled FFmpeg binary if legally permitted for your distribution.

Can I customize the UI?

Yes. The front-end uses standard HTML and Bootstrap-compatible structure, and it is easy to customize. You are free to adapt layout, colors, and text according to the license terms.
