FFMPEG 0.5 Released
« on: March 12, 2009, 04:08:59 AM »
Just FYI the latest version of FFMPEG has been released.

http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/

I'll have a play around with it once I get it compiled for Windows.

Some of the highlights are:

Quote
Significant work to support at least decoding of all widespread mainstream proprietary codecs, such as:
decoders and encoders
ALAC
Flash Screen Video
WMAv2 decoder fixed, WMAv1/v2 encoder
decoders
Atrac3
MLP/TrueHD
On2 VP3 improvements and VP5/VP6 support
RealAudio Cooker and fixes for 14.4 and 28.8
RealVideo RV30/40
WMV3/WMV9/VC-1 and IntraX8 frame support for WMV2/VC-1
Broad coverage of widespread non-proprietary codecs, including:
decoders and encoders
DNxHD
DVCPRO50 (a.k.a. DV50)
Floating point PCM
GSM-MS
Theora (and encoding via libtheora)
Vorbis
decoders
AAC with ADTS support and >2x the speed of FAAD! (no HE AAC support yet)
AC-3 that is faster than liba52 in 5.1, up to 2x faster in stereo and also supports E-AC-3! Hence liba52 is now obsolete.
DCA
DVCPRO HD (a.k.a. DV100)
H.264 PAFF and CQM support, plus slice-based multithreaded decoding
Monkey's Audio
MPEG-2 video support for intra VLC and 4:2:2
Musepack
QCELP
Shorten
True Audio (TTA)
Wavpack including hybrid mode support
Highlights among the newly supported container formats:
demuxers and muxers
GXF
MXF
demuxers
NullSoft Video (NSV)
muxers
iPhone/iPod compatibility for MP4/MOV
Matroska
NUT
Ogg (FLAC, Theora and Vorbis only)
ShockWave Flash (SWF)
libavdevice
ffserver is working again.
a shiny, new, completely revamped, non-recursive build system
cleaner, more consistent code
an all new metadata API
