=============

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content

such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

## Libraries

* `libavcodec` provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.

* `libavformat` implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.

* `libavutil` includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.

* `libavfilter` provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.

* `libavdevice` provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.

* `libswresample` implements audio mixing and resampling routines.

* `libswscale` implements color conversion and scaling routines.

## Tools

* [ffmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html) is a command line toolbox to

  manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.

* [ffplay](https://ffmpeg.org/ffplay.html) is a minimalistic multimedia player.

* [ffprobe](https://ffmpeg.org/ffprobe.html) is a simple analysis tool to inspect

  multimedia content.

* Additional small tools such as `aviocat`, `ismindex` and `qt-faststart`.
