<!-- --8<-- [start:introduction] -->

The FFmpeg command line tool is a universal media converter. It can read a wide variety of inputs,
filter and transcode them into a plethora of output formats. For new user it can be extremely
convoluted to use, and read the output. When converting a video file for the first time,
understanding the progress of the current task from the output is quite the confusing task.

This is where PFFmpeg comes in. It's CLI is just on top of FFmpeg's, and delegates everything to it.
The output of the FFmpeg is parsed and "patched" to display a progress bar while running an action
such as a video compression. PFFmpeg philosophy is to alter as little as possible the FFmpeg experience,
and simply add the progress bar when needed, unlike other project who just wrap and hide all of the
output behind a progress bar. In terms of style, the
[`rich`](https://rich.readthedocs.io/en/latest/progress.html) progress bar was chosen.
