thin liquid film

thin liquid film

thin liquid film (TLF) is an application which allows linux users to quickly and easily convert video files into a format suitable for playing on the video capable ipods (i.e. 5th and 6th generation ipods).

TLF uses the FFmpeg engine and allows batch processing of any number of files, displays detailed information about source video files, saves default settings for future sessions, has configurable output quality settings, and displays a progress bar.

It is written in pyqt, so it should work with a default KDE installation, and is very easy to install.
