This software uses code of FFmpeg licensed under the LGPLv2.1, and its source can be downloaded below.
ConvertIt includes a command-line FFmpeg binary for certain video and audio conversions. ConvertIt runs FFmpeg as a separate process; it does not link FFmpeg libraries into the application.
The bundled FFmpeg build is compiled without --enable-gpl and without
