"It's not free..."
Version: iFFmpeg 2.0
Pros
None that I could see
Cons
It isn't free
Summary
I don't know why this is reviewed as being a free product because it is only a free demo version, you have to pay to continue using it after 8 times. Use ffmpegX instead.

"Why Pay for FREE Unix Commands"
Version: iFFmpeg 2.0
Pros
NON ... if you like giving away your Money
Cons
Paying Hard Earned $$$ for yet another Cocoa Wrapper of FREE Unix Commands
Summary
If Unix is to difficult, try FFmpegX - [it does it all and all you have to put up with is an easily dismissed nag screen on startup]
OR check out CLIX - [vast number of Unix Commands & its free - but be careful with some of them] -
