Alternative to Miro Video Converter for Linux? Back in the Windows/Mac days, I used the wonderfully easy to use Miro Video Converter to convert videos I have into either the more open and Freerer Theora or WebM formats. Two problems: (1) No Linux binary that I could use. (2) No advanced options that let me control the conversion process, such as embedding subtitles. Is there an alternative FLOSS on Linux that does this? Thanks!

I'd suggest a frontend to `ffmpeg`. There are several out there, for example

* Sinthgunt
* WinFF
* Transcoder
* HyperVideo Converter



Sinthgunt looks the most promising to me - it looks relatively discoverable, and comes with loads of preset formats to convert into.
