On your website, you claim that "Converting video and audio has never been
so easy." > https://ffmpeg.org/
And you give an example how to use your software:
"$ ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.avi"
However, real experts on that topic disagree. They think this simple
command is not sufficient to convert a video as this will destroy color
space and lead to poor video quality. >

I asked: "Should every user of ffmpeg do a 'Bachelor of Color
Management'?" > https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/7037#comment:66
And the answer was "Yes." and even " I fear it requires more..." and they
furthermore said "functionality and user friendliness seemed to dislike
each other..."
Then I ask you to change your website and tell the truth. Please change
text to:
"ffmpeg is a library for audio or video experts who know every aspect of
their topic and are well aware of all the options that need to be tuned
for the desired output."
or similar...
