@chapter Encoders
@c man begin ENCODERS
Encoders are configured elements in FFmpeg which allow the encoding of
multimedia streams.
When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported native encoders
are enabled by default. Encoders requiring an external library must be enabled
manually via the corresponding @code{--enable-lib} option. You can list all
available encoders using the configure option @code{--list-encoders}.
You can disable all the encoders with the configure option
@code{--disable-encoders} and selectively enable / disable single encoders
with the options @code{--enable-encoder=@var{ENCODER}} /
@code{--disable-encoder=@var{ENCODER}}.
The option @code{-codecs} of the ff* tools will display the list of
enabled encoders.
