NOTE: ffMPEG is a separate program and required for media compression. Website: Price: 18.99 Euros (about $22 US) But… like all powerful tools, if you invest the time to learn how to use it, you are rewarded with results you can’t get from Adobe Media Encoder or Apple Compressor.įf-Works is a flexible, powerful and comprehensive software compression tool for power users who demand outstanding quality and are willing to spend the time to learn how to use it. Installation is cumbersome, there are only two video tutorials on the program that I’ve been able to find, help files are essentially non-existent and the user interface is overwhelming. However, when combined with ffMPEG, which is developed by a separate organization, it is a powerful media compression tool. You’ll find it here.įf-Works is a front-end to ffMPEG, a highly-regarded, open-source compression engine that is normally used by programmers to integrate into their software.īy itself, ff-Works allows in-depth technical analysis of media files. NOTE: I created an in-depth webinar showcasing how to use this software.
If you want to improve the look of your final output, keep reading. I now do almost all my compression in this program. It is tricky to install, difficult to use and the help files are written by programmers for programmers.īut, oh, my! The image quality is amazing, the file sizes are tiny, and the flexibility and control this program provides are second to none. For the last six weeks, I’ve been working with a new media compression program called ff-Works.
