I downloaded the recent build, but cannot seem to get the converter to function either.
Open command (the DOS style window, I don't exactly know how it's called in english, think it's command), then go to the folder your ffmpeg.exe is in by climbing the folder structure with "cd Foldername" until you're there, then insert the code spinal posted.
edit: sniped. Yeah. The GUI version should be much easier to use.
