FFmpeg can make use of the OpenH264 library for H.264 encoding.
Go to @url{http://www.openh264.org/} and follow the instructions for
installing the library. Then pass @code{--enable-libopenh264} to configure to
enable it.
@section x264
FFmpeg can make use of the x264 library for H.264 encoding.
Go to @url{http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html} and follow the
instructions for installing the library. Then pass @code{--enable-libx264} to
configure to enable it.
@float NOTE
x264 is under the GNU Public License Version 2 or later
(see @url{http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html} for
details), you must upgrade FFmpeg's license to GPL in order to use it.
@end float
@section x265
FFmpeg can make use of the x265 library for HEVC encoding.
Go to @url{http://x265.org/developers.html} and follow the instructions
for installing the library. Then pass @code{--enable-libx265} to configure
to enable it.
@float NOTE
x265 is under the GNU Public License Version 2 or later
(see @url{http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html} for
details), you must upgrade FFmpeg's license to GPL in order to use it.
@end float
@section kvazaar
FFmpeg can make use of the kvazaar library for HEVC encoding.
Go to @url{https://github.com/ultravideo/kvazaar} and follow the
instructions for installing the library. Then pass
@code{--enable-libkvazaar} to configure to enable it.
@section libilbc
iLBC is a narrowband speech codec that has been made freely available
by Google as part of the WebRTC project. libilbc is a packaging friendly
copy of the iLBC codec. FFmpeg can make use of the libilbc library for
iLBC encoding and decoding.
Go to @url{https://github.com/TimothyGu/libilbc} and follow the instructions for
installing the library. Then pass @code{--enable-libilbc} to configure to
enable it.
@section libzvbi
libzvbi is a VBI decoding library which can be used by FFmpeg to decode DVB
teletext pages and DVB teletext subtitles.
Go to @url{http://sourceforge.net/projects/zapping/} and follow the instructions for
installing the library. Then pass @code{--enable-libzvbi} to configure to
enable it.
@section AviSynth
FFmpeg can read AviSynth scripts as input. To enable support, pass
@code{--enable-avisynth} to configure. The correct headers are
included in compat/avisynth/, which allows the user to enable support
without needing to search for these headers themselves.
For Windows, supported AviSynth variants are
@url{http://avisynth.nl, AviSynth 2.6 RC1 or higher} for 32-bit builds and
@url{http://avs-plus.net, AviSynth+ r1718 or higher} for 32-bit and 64-bit builds.
For Linux and OS X, the supported AviSynth variant is
@url{https://github.com/avxsynth/avxsynth, AvxSynth}.
@float NOTE
AviSynth and AvxSynth are loaded dynamically. Distributors can build FFmpeg
with @code{--enable-avisynth}, and the binaries will work regardless of the
end user having AviSynth or AvxSynth installed - they'll only need to be
installed to use AviSynth scripts (obviously).
@end float
@section Intel QuickSync Video
FFmpeg can use Intel QuickSync Video (QSV) for accelerated encoding and decoding
of multiple codecs. To use QSV, FFmpeg must be linked against the @code{libmfx}
dispatcher, which loads the actual decoding libraries.
The dispatcher is open source and can be downloaded from
@url{https://github.com/lu-zero/mfx_dispatch.git}. FFmpeg needs to be configured
with the @code{--enable-libmfx} option and @code{pkg-config} needs to be able to
locate the dispatcher's @code{.pc} files.
@chapter Supported File Formats, Codecs or Features
