Audiovisual content is now widely consumed by almost all users. In this sense, Linux was always seen as the system that had the least applications for this. However, everyday solid, reliable and elegant alternatives emerge to perform various jobs such as file conversion. That’s why in this post I will talk about MystiQ Video Converter on Linux.
MystiQ harnesses the full power of FFmpeg
MystiQ is a front-end for FFmpeg, that is, it is a powerful multimedia (audio and video) file converter. It supports many formats including the most popular ones like Avi, MKV, MP4, Mp3, and others.
Many features make it a very interesting application, but one of them is that it is made entirely with QT5. This guarantees elegance and integration, especially with the Plasma desktop environment.
So, MystiQ features an intuitive graphical interface and a rich set of presets to help you convert media files within a few clicks
On the other hand, MystiQ is available for many Linux distributions like Arch Linux, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and OpenSUSE with precompiled packages. However, it also has a version for Windows and soon for macOS.
