09:18 schestowitz; <blockquote>
09:18 schestowitz; <p>ffmpeg has been described as the Swiss army knife of multimedia. It incorporates hundreds of video, audio, and image decoders and encoders, muxers and demuxers, filters and devices. It provides a CLI and a set of libraries for working with its tools, and is the core component of many video and audio players as a result (including my preferred multimedia player, mpv). If you want to do almost anything with
09:18 schestowitz; multimedia files re-encode them, re-mux them, live stream it, whatever ffmpeg can handle it with ease.</p>
09:18 schestowitz; <p>Let me share an example.</p>

12:47 schestowitz; <p>The reason, of course, is copyright, because Amazon only has the rights to use The Lord of the Rings books, which include the appendices mentioned above. As the ScreenRant article notes, this has forced the team behind The Rings of Power to come up with clever but rather convoluted solutions in order to explain key elements of the earlier Tolkien world, without drawing on forbidden
12:47 schestowitz; materials like The Silmarillion.</p>
