FFMPEG WINDOWS BUILD CODE

QuoteThis Windows Batchscript setups a MinGW/GCC compiler environment for building ffmpeg and other media tools under Windows. However, there is very straightforward way of doing all this: media-autobuild_suite. However, if you do a lot of conversions, creating a batchfile to run FFMPEG and dragging-&-dropping a group of media files onto the batchfile icon becomes a very easy way to accomplish this.Ĭompiling FFMPEG and all its associated tools & libraries under Windows appears daunting, with many programs needing to be downloaded, and many scripts to be run. So being able to build FFMPEG yourself is quite desirable.įFMPEG is a command-line program, but there are plenty of GUI front-ends for it. And FFMPEG includes a lot of components that you may have no need for.

Also due to licensing, the high-quality Fraunhofer FDK AAC codec (libfdk_aac) can no longer be distributed in built versions of FFMPEG, although you are free to compile it from source code and use it for yourself (as long as you don't redistribute it). While you can get W64 & W32 builds of FFMPEG, sometimes these are significantly older than the source code which is updated very often (on-going development is fast-paced). In fact, so much development has been done on it, it performs better than commercial H.264 software: X264 is a very well regarded H.264 codec. x264.exe, x264_32.exe, x264_64.exe, etc.)Īs well a modified version of x264: x264vfwĪnd adapted FFMPEG & x264 libraries in AVIDemux. When I did a search on my PC for FFMPEG and x264, I found: Although not specifically about ADM, it you are currently using ADM under Windows, it is likely you are already interested in or soon will be interested in FFMPEG and x264.
