I remember way back when I was still intimidated by the command line, I was having issues with a video, and the only info I could find was on using ffmpeg to do some conversions directly. I laugh at the memory of me being nonplussed at trying to launch ffmpeg and expecting a GUI to pop up.
I am glad that I spent some time getting to know ffmpeg directly. There's been a few times where knowing that it was ffmpeg under the hood helped me.
