I mean in general. I ordered a book from Amazon (Real World Video
Compression-Andy Beach) and I have read the ffmpeg documentation, like
reading an ingredient list more than anything, I have read posts on
different forums. My task is this, to learn the ins and outs of a/v
transcoding and conversion. I aim to create another CDN that can accept any
of the major video formats and auto convert them into something web
friendly; desktops, tablets and smart phones. Yep, that's how I've always
been jump right into the deep end with both feet.

This kind of reminds me how I felt when I first dove into website building,
Holy Data Turds but there's a lot to learn!
