Module: avcodec
Type codec library
First VLC version -
Last VLC version -
Operating system(s) all
Description Various audio and video decoders/encoders delivered by the FFmpeg library. This includes (MS)MPEG4, DivX, SVQ1, H261, H263, H264, WMV, WMA, AAC, AMR, DV, MJPEG and other codecs
Shortcut(s) -

libavcodec provided by the FFmpeg project. A full list of supported codecs may be found with modules/codec/avcodec/fourcc.c

Options prefixed with ffmpeg- or sout-ffmpeg- were deprecated in 2.1.0 to reflect the new module name avcodec. The only option that seems not to have been replaced later is --avcodec-vismv, removed in 3.0.0.

Options as of 3.0.6:
