The shared architecture provides various services ranging from bitstream I/O to DSP optimizations, and makes it suitable forimplementing robust and fast codecs as well as for experimentation. @c man end DESCRIPTION @chapter See Also @ifhtml@url{ffmpeg.html,ffmpeg}, @url{ffplay.html,ffplay}, @url{ffprobe.html,ffprobe},@url{ffmpeg-codecs.html,ffmpeg-codecs}, @url{ffmpeg-bitstream-filters.html,bitstream-filters},@url{libavutil.html,libavutil}@end ifhtml @ifnothtmlffmpeg(1), ffplay(1), ffprobe(1),ffmpeg-codecs(1), ffmpeg-bitstream-filters(1),libavutil(3)@end ifnothtml @include authors.texi @ignore @setfilename libavcodec@settitle media streams decoding and encoding library @end ignore @bye
