yes.

it's a commandline tool.
put the ffmpeg files (from the build linked to in the guide because it wont work with
other ffmpeg builds) in the same folder as your .evo file,
open the command shell in windows. click 'start' -> 'run' -> type: 'cmd'
navigate to your working folder and run the commands.

what gui?

Winff would be ok.
but you'd still have the source properties step to do, to get the mapping.

Avanti would be better,
but the new version isn't up yet,
and the old is down.

working off the command shell is simple enough
