Actually, the actual command line usage of ffmpeg discussed here is very
platform-neutral. Even platform-specifics are evenly split - e.g. I see
the same amount of questions regarding v4l or alsa (Linux) input devices
as for avfoundation (Mac) or dshow (Windows).

But for controlling a command line program from the shell: You're at a
total loss with Windows, unless you learn and use PowerShell (or
Cygwin, but that's basically Unix). Loops? Switch/case statements?
grep? cut? Regular expressions? How do you do that using Windows? Not
as easily. Windows is just the wrong tool to use with ffmpeg, not the
other way around. ;-)

That is true. :-)
