This library provides a Rust interface for FFmpeg libraries. Rather than supporting all FFmpeg features, we focus on safety and simplicity of the interface.
- Demuxing any self-contained media container
- Muxing any self-contained media container
- Setting metadata
- Seeking
- Decoding audio and video
- Encoding audio and video
- Video frame scaling and pixel format transformations
- Audio resampling
- Bitstream filters
- FFmpeg v4.x or v5.x libraries. The following libraries are required:
- libavutil
- libavcodec
- libavformat
- libswresample
- libswscale
The following env. variables can be used to set correct paths to FFmpeg header files and libraries:
FFMPEG_INCLUDE_DIR- path to the FFmpeg header filesFFMPEG_LIB_DIR- path to the FFmpeg libs
If you prefer static linking, you can force it using:
FFMPEG_STATIC=1
Even though this library is distributed under the MIT license, the FFmpeg project has its own license policies that need to be respected. See https://ffmpeg.org/legal.html for more details.
