I was originally a PHP engineer. As demand for PHP declined and the broader economy entered a downturn, I lost my job.By chance, I later began studying audio and video technologies. I am now an audio and video engineer.
The FFmpeg Principle series will consist of the following four volumes, which are being published gradually:
- FFmpeg Principle, Volume 1—Getting Started, Compilation, and Debugging
- FFmpeg Principle, Volume 2—Using the APIs
- FFmpeg Principle, Volume 3—Analyzing the Source Code of the
ffplay.cPlayer - FFmpeg Principle, Volume 4—Analyzing the Source Code of
ffmpeg.c
There may be a fifth, sixth, or even an Nth volume in the future.
Volume 1 uses FFmpeg version n4.4.1. You can download the source code here:
