FFmpeg 5.1

FFmpeg 是影音處理領域的旗艦級開源框架，能解碼、編碼、轉碼、封裝、拆封、串流、濾波與播放幾乎所有已知的影音格式，從早期罕見的古老規格到最新的壓縮標準都涵蓋在內。它最具辨識度的特色就是格式支援的廣度與深度，堪稱業界事實上的標準工具。此專案長期活躍維護，版本更新頻繁，在同類工具中屬於主流首選，使用者評價普遍不錯，是許多專業軟體背後的運算核心。

這套工具適合需要批次轉檔、影音處理或開發相關應用的進階使用者，例如影片剪輯、格式轉換、串流伺服器建置等情境。與 KMPlayer、K-Lite Codec Pack 等播放器或解碼包相比，FFmpeg 是命令列工具，功能更全面且可程式化，但學習門檻較高，沒有圖形介面。它採用開源授權，可自由使用與修改，但官方僅提供英文介面，且 Windows 版本需自行下載對應的執行檔，使用前最好先熟悉基本指令操作。

FFmpeg is the leading multimedia framework, able to decode, encode, transcode, mux, demux, stream, filter and play pretty much anything that humans and machines have created.

It supports the most obscure ancient formats up to the cutting edge. No matter if they were designed by some standards committee, the community, or a corporation.

It is also highly portable: The software compiles, runs, and passes testing infrastructure FATE across Linux, macOS, Microsoft Windows, the BSDs, Solaris, etc. under a wide variety of build environments, machine architectures, and configurations.

It contains libavcodec, libavutil, libavformat, libavfilter, libavdevice, libswscale, and libswresample which can be used by applications.

As well as ffmpeg, ffserver, ffplay, and ffprobe which can be used by end-users for transcoding, streaming, and playing.
