Gopu Govindaswamy 94c20de429 avcodec/libx265: use x265 Multi-library Interface to query the API
ffmpeg can now use the x265 multi-library interface to make a runtime
selection between a number of libx265 libraries (perhaps 8bpp and 16bpp).

ffmpeg will link to one build of libx265 (statically or
dynamically) and this linked version of libx265 will support one
bit-depth (8 or 10 bits). At runtime, ffmpeg now has the option to request the
encoder to use a different bit depth(8 or 10). If the requested bitdepth
is zero, or if it matches the bitdepth of the system default libx265 (the
currently linked library), then this library will be used for encode.
If ffmpeg requests a different bit-depth, the linked libx265 will attempt
to dynamically bind a shared library with the requested bit-depth from the install
location (default or user-specified).

new x265 API:
     const x265_api* api = x265_api_get(int bitDepth);
     x265_api - holds the libx265 public API functions
     bitDepth - requested API for 8bpp or 16bpp

     note: Use 0 to indicate native bit depth of the linked libx265 and
           x265_api_get(0) is guaranteed to return a non-null pointer

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • ffserver is a multimedia streaming server for live broadcasts.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
