Thomas. Sorry, I got distracted and missed your mail. While GTK2 is going to be killed in the somewhat near future it also fails to do what it's designed to do namely transcode to anything modern. As I wrote in the commit, it doesn't support "current available formats". It isn't aware of anything that's recent by a decade, such as h264, h265 or av1 which all are common formats/codec. Audio is even more odd with no selections at all and container support also seems poor at best. I did even list an alternative which does all this and is actively maintained. Best regards, Daniel
