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 nam=
ely transcode to anything
modern. As I wrote in the commit, it doesn't su=
pport "current
available formats". It isn't aware of anything that's rece=
nt by a
decade, such as h264, h265 or av1 which all are common formats/co=
dec.
Audio is even more odd with no selections at all and container suppo=
rt
also seems poor at best. I did even list an alternative which does all=

this and is actively maintained.

Best regards,

Daniel
