- wtffmpeg is a command-line tool that translates plain English descriptions of video/audio tasks into ffmpeg commands using a local LLM.
- Features include natural language interface, local execution, interactive command review, GPU acceleration, and customization.
- Installation involves cloning the repository, setting up a virtual environment, installing llama-cpp-python with hardware acceleration, and downloading a GGUF model.
- Basic usage: `wtff "your ffmpeg instruction in quotes"` with examples for file conversion, audio extraction, and clip creation.
- Interactive mode allows command review and editing before execution, with `!command` syntax for running arbitrary commands.
- The tool may generate invalid commands; users should review carefully before execution.
