For me, it wasn’t so much learning ffmpeg, as it was understanding containers/codecs/encoders/streams/etc. Learning all of the intricacies there made ffmpeg make a lot more sense.

Almost no one cares to understand the domain of the tool anymore, they only want result and expect a simplified interface that already does the unique thing they want to do, but can’t accept that a power tool can only be used with training.
