Unfortunately not updated anymore, but in essence it was just an interface to ffmpeg options. So either create pre-defined script modules for all your ffmpeg tasks, or video language scripts. Practically it doesn't really matter, but I think I'd go for simple scripting modules out of familiarity.

Ya, I haven't updated video in years. I'm perfectly happy to do it, but I just haven't had a need, and no one asking for updates. :D
There is a lot of overlap between video and ffmpeg's filtergraph. The biggest difference, however, is that video tries to provide a full language on top of it, that tries to use NLVEs as an abstraction, rather than pure filters.
It worked out very well for lots of videos with very similar composites (in my case it was making conference recordings). But frankly, OBS also fit the bill almost as well so we started using that.
