I was hoping this was about the command-line tool, which is quite daunting to learn once you start getting into the filters and combining/merging multiple audio and video sources.
In a recent project I eventually had to write a script to do 2 passes of ffmpeg after spending a good day trying to figure my way through all the filter documentation to do a 5-step process in one pass..
This isn't a knock against ffmpeg, which is an amazing open source package, but it's complicated, so I'm sure this repo will be of great help to many.
The ffmpeg commandline tool is ultimately just a frontend to all the internals.
So understanding how everything works internally will translate directly to a better grasp on how to use ffmpeg at the commandline.
Even though this document is very new I now understand why fiddling with the PTS value in the filtergraph would slow down/speed up some video I was tinkering with a while back, for example.
