  ffmpeg -i {{video.mp4}} -vn {{sound}}.mp3
   
• Save a video as GIF, scaling the height to 1000px and setting framerate to 15:
   
  ffmpeg -i {{video.mp4}} -vf 'scale=-1:{{1000}}' -r {{15}} {{output.gif}}
   
• Combine numbered images (frame_1.jpg, frame_2.jpg, etc) into a video or GIF:
   
  ffmpeg -i {{frame_%d.jpg}} -f image2 {{video.mpg|video.gif}}
   
• Quickly extract a single frame from a video at time mm:ss and save it as a 128x128 resolution image:
   
  ffmpeg -ss {{mm:ss}} -i {{video.mp4}} -frames 1 -s {{128x128}} -f image2 {{image.png}}
   
• Trim a video from a given start time mm:ss to an end time mm2:ss2 (omit the -to flag to trim till the end):
   
  ffmpeg -ss {{mm:ss}} -to {{mm2:ss2}} -i {{video.mp4}} -codec copy {{output.mp4}}
   
• Convert AVI video to MP4. AAC Audio @ 128kbit, h264 Video @ CRF 23:

  ffmpeg -i {{input_video}}.mkv -codec copy {{output_video}}.mp4

  ffmpeg -i {{input_video}}.mp4 -codec:video libvpx-vp9 -crf {{30}} -b:video 0 -codec:audio libopus -vbr on -threads {{number_of_threads}} {{output_video}}.webm
