Anyone know this program, not necessarily in and out, but enough to explain it to me so I will?

Alost every video transcoder you download is a freaking front end to this program. Yet there is no real good documentation.

 
Sorry, man. If their official documentation is not good enough, I don't know if there are any better ones. I don't know the first bit of it. (Ha, ha, bit.) I just use SUPER from time to time as a front-end. Best of luck to you.

I ended up figuring out what I needed to do, but it involved basically tearing apart video from audio streams, then re-encoding video and afterwards reattaching audio.

Seriously this is 2012, this stuff should be simpler. Like one click, I'd like this movie to play please and advanced options should be on what class of processor.

 
When I used Windows and needed to transcode video, I'd always use a GUI front-end that made it stupid simple to configure ffmpeg. I can't remember for the life of me what GUI I used (I switch to Macs back in 2002) but I'd seriously just use a GUI front end instead of f'ing with ffmpeg directly.
