Free FPS is an open‑source desktop app and scripts to change a video file frame rate (FPS) using FFmpeg. Unlike video editors, it does not add effects or alter content - it only adjusts playback speed and, if needed, re-encodes audio as well. Useful if you work with multiple videos shot at different frame rates that cannot be combined or edited without interpolation or frame loss. Also doubles as a fast video compressor: keep the original FPS and raise compression (e.g., higher CRF or lower bitrate) to reduce file size. What it does: Changes video FPS via FFmpeg. Keeps or re‑encodes audio if requested. No effects, no content edits. Writes results to a separate output folder by default. Also doubles as a fast video compressor: keep the original FPS and raise compression (e.g., higher CRF or lower bitrate) to reduce file size. Important: The program is intended for users who understand what FPS conversion does. Changing the frame rate affects the speed and duration of the video
