Handbrake puts a GUI on ffmpeg, and integrates a handful of other best-in-class open source functions. And it’s free! Highly recommended! Only get it from the official site:

The free, open source version of Handbrake is the only legitimate release of the software. There is no paid version, no additional features to unlock.

There is no video length restriction by Handbrake.
