libavcodec - media streams decoding and encoding library
The libavcodec library provides a generic encoding/decoding framework and
contains multiple decoders and encoders for audio, video and subtitle streams,
and several bitstream filters.
The shared architecture provides various services ranging from bit stream I/O to
DSP optimizations, and makes it suitable for implementing robust and fast
codecs as well as for experimentation.
