FFMPEG, AVISynth and GUIs?

[GAP]

I am looking for programs that will help make my video encoding process somewhat easier as I am still learning how to make my own scripts. I had heard of Avanti, MeGUI, Staxtip and WinFF as a thing but which one is beginner freindly and will help you with your own scripts?

Only encoding?
Did you try VirtualDub?
Or maybe I didn't understand your need.

I was looking for a "cheat sheet" where I can learn how to make my own AVISynth and FFMPEG scripts. I was looking for programs that I will help me do just that.

MeGUI will create Avisynth scripts for you, so you don't need to know anything about Avisynth to use it, but it's Script Creator shows you the scripts and makes it easy to manually modify them. The Script Creator has a preview to make it easy to see the script output, and if you modify the script in a way that produces an error, MeGUI will re-write it for you if you change something in the Script Creator's GUI.

Use MeGUI's File/Open menu to open a video file and follow the prompts.
