There seems to be a trend of people building frontends to already existing tools, then advertising their software as though it was itself implementing the underlying functionality.

- giancarlostoro 3y agoConsidering the original tool was abandoned, I think its fair game. They also noted they made some improvements over the original tool. I assume the author wanted a simple tool like the original but found some bugs, dug into the code, realized he could re-write it in what he was comfortable in.
- Gormo 3y agoWhen was FFMpeg ever abandoned?

- giancarlostoro 2y agoRight, and GUIs dont have GUI specific bugs ever? Thats what you seem to be implying, or the underlying dependency becomes incompatible.
