We support any format that ffmpeg supports, if you can't seem to convert a video please contact us (or find a fix yourself and send a pull request) and we'll try to get it sorted for you.
We support three different output formats at the moment: .ogg, .webm and .mp4. If you want more, send a pull request with your tested code and we'll add it.

Usage
Well we guess you don't want to convert videos to HTML5 formats just to take up space on your hard drive, once you have the hang of converting videos to HTML5 format you should probably head over to videojs.com or similiar and embed your shiny new videos right there in your browser. Once you show this to girls you are bound to get laid.
Go to the github page and follow the instructions like a boss. We tried to make it easy to install and use, if you find anything that isn't up to your high standards then you know what to do ;).
