What are the prerequisites for running this app?

You need Node.js (v14 or newer) and FFmpeg installed on your system. FFmpeg is essential for all video processing operations.

How do I fix "FFmpeg not found" errors?

Make sure FFmpeg is installed and accessible from the command line. On Windows, add FFmpeg to your PATH. On Mac, run brew install ffmpeg. On Linux, run sudo apt install ffmpeg.

What is the default upload file size limit?

What should I check if uploads fail?

Verify that the uploads/ directory exists and has write permissions. Check the browser console for JavaScript errors and the server logs for any error messages.
