<p>The libavutil library is a utility library to aid portable |
|
multimedia programming. It contains safe portable string functions, |
|
random number generators, data structures, additional mathematics |
|
functions, cryptography and multimedia related functionality (like |
|
enumerations for pixel and sample formats). It is not a library for |
|
code needed by both libavcodec and libavformat. |
|
</p> |
|
<p>The goals for this library is to be: |
|
</p> |
|
<dl class="table"> |
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Modular</strong></dt> |
|
<dd><p>It should have few interdependencies and the possibility of disabling individual |
|
parts during <code class="command">./configure</code>. |
|
</p> |
|
</dd> |
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Small</strong></dt> |
|
<dd><p>Both sources and objects should be small. |
|
</p> |
|
</dd> |
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Efficient</strong></dt> |
|
<dd><p>It should have low CPU and memory usage. |
|
</p> |
|
</dd> |
|
<dt><strong class="strong">Useful</strong></dt> |
|
<dd><p>It should avoid useless features that almost no one needs. |
