<p>Over the past 10 years, the stunning rise of video on the internet as a way to communicate<br />
and disseminate ideas has made it a platform that EVERYONE has needed to get familiar with<br />
and master.  With this rise, came incredible tools like FFmpeg and video file formats like<br />
MP4, that has become the de facto video format on the web.  FFmpeg is a powerful open source<br />
video conversion, compression and streaming tool used by top services like YouTube and<br />
Facebook. Because of the current zeitgeist, it is important to use video on your site to<br />
interact with you visitors in ways that they can relate to and understand.  Communicating<br />
in a standard way using the MP4 video format and making sure those videos are small in size<br />
but good in quality is therefore absolutely imperative.</p>
<p>Open Beacon MP4 Conversion and Compression combines WordPress with FFmpeg to easily convert<br />
files from the popular FLV and MOV file formats to the even more popular MP4 file format.<br />
Existing MP4 files can be radically compressed without any perceptible loss in video quality.<br />
In short, Open Beacon MP4 Conversion and Compression is what any WordPress aficionado needs<br />
if they want to use FFmpeg.</p>
<p>This plugin ONLY works with FFmpeg.</p>
