Simple-Video-Converter

Simple Video Converter is a high-performance, secure, and offline GUI frontend for FFmpeg, designed to make video conversion easy and fast.

The application comes bundled with its own FFmpeg 7.1 engine (Static Build), specifically compiled to leverage the full power of your Linux hardware.

What's New in v1.4:

• Total Hardware Acceleration: Full support for NVIDIA (NVENC) and Intel/AMD (VA-API/QSV).
• International: Interface available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese (Brazil).
• Strict Mode: Runs in a secure sandbox to protect your system and guarantee stability.

Key Features:

• 100% Offline: Your files never leave your computer. Privacy first.
• Batch Processing: Convert multiple files at once.
• Output Formats: MP4, MKV, AVI, WebM.
• Modern UI: Beautiful interface with multiple themes (Cyberpunk, Neon, Dark).
• Smart Presets: Simple configurations for immediate use without complex settings.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Accessing External Drives (USB / Secondary Drives)

By default, the strict security confinement prevents the app from reading your USB sticks or external hard drives. If your videos are stored on removable media, you must grant access by running this command once in your terminal:

sudo snap connect simple-video-converter:removable-media
