Massive "thank you" to FFmpeg for being an amazing tool. My app pivotally depends on FFmpeg extracting screenshots of videos for users to browse through: https

  If you're making money from it, why not donate for future development? http://ffmpeg.org/donations.html http://ffmpeg.org/donations.html

    This software is available for $3.50 through videohubapp.com $3.50 of every sale goes to the cost-effective charity Against Malaria Foundation. Appears to donate 100% straight to Charity by the looks of it.

      The text is rather confusing. Why not directly mention that the money is fully donated? It's great that the author likes supporting a charity/foundation, but as a customer, I would expect my money to be used to maintain and further develop the software I pay for. Having all the money directly getting donated, makes me slightly worry about longevity/maintenance of a product...

        Maybe if you buy something for $3.50 you should always be slightly worried about the longevity/maintenance of the product...

        Author here. I need to clarify my messaging on the website: $3.50 gets donated with every purchase (even though after fees a $3.50 purchase results in about $3.00 going to my account). The people who choose to pay more (there are many!) cover the fees -- huge "thank you" to them. I'm releasing version 2 in the next 2 months: anyone who ever bought the software (700+ people) will get the download link in their email. I keep a log of all the donations: https://videohubapp.com/blog.html https://videohubapp.com/blog.html -- you can click to see the charity website log as well: https://www.againstmalaria.com/VideoHubApp https://www.againstmalaria.com/VideoHubApp Happy to answer any questions :)

  Aweseome, I've been looking for something like this forever. I hacked my own solution using Spring Boot and Angular but not nearly as many features.
