Description

Hi,

First I would like to thank you for the initiative. I have few suggestoin for your project:

  1. Add a section for FFMpeg compilation and/or links for Windows/Linux. For instance, add links to Zeranoe builds. Explain the limitation of codec/mux and licenses issues, the interest of the non-free flag for compilation.
  2. A small guide/links explaining how to compile ffmpeg with specific options, how to add/remove a codec from a build.
  3. Differenciate version of FFMpeg. There are many API changes, maintaining multiple version of the sample code can be great.
  4. Add a small tutorial for synching audio & video when there is no constant FPS input (I already have some stuff for this one).

I can participate to some of these points. Let me know if you are interested by a contribution!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the tutorial structure and its existing FFmpeg/libav sample sections. Scope the requested compilation guidance, codec and licensing notes, version-specific API examples, and variable-FPS audio/video synchronization material with the maintainer before editing. Done means the agreed sections or links are added and the relevant examples remain consistent.
