Yes it looks very nice, problem fixed :)!

While we are at it, right now first Google entry for "ffmpeg
documentation" points to http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-doc.html, which is
badly outdated, and it happens that sometimes users report
problems/issues depending on this outdated documentation.

Best would be to remove that page from the server, and/or create a
redirect from ff*-doc.html -> ff*.html.
