It is a console program used as a wrapper for ffmpeg use to simplify my video handling functions. I need it to build both on Ubuntu and Windows because I have the same tools on both. In this case I did not modify the interface program for 2 years, but now I need to tweak the ffmpeg call so I must open it in one of my several Lazarus installations on Windows10. Then the same on Ubuntu.
