Martin Storsjö 8a3d9ca603 libavcodec: Add an OpenH264 encoder wrapper
Compared to existing, common opensource H264 encoders, this can be
useful since it has got a different license (BSD instead of GPL).

Performance- and qualitywise it is comparable to x264 in ultrafast
mode.

Hooking it up as an encoder in libavcodec also simplifies comparing
it against other common encoders.

This requires OpenH264 1.3 or newer. Since the OpenH264 API and ABI
changes frequently, only releases are supported.

To take advantage of the OpenH264 patent offer, the OpenH264 library
must not be redistributed, but downloaded at runtime at the end-user's
system.

Libav

Libav is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libavresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • avconv is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • avplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • avprobe is a simple analisys tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
