FFmpeg is an open source software project whose main purpose is to convert video and audio formats. It also supports some still image formats. It includes:
- libavformat, a library for reading and writing "container" formats and other file formats
- libavcodec, a library of video and audio codecs
- ffmpeg, a command line format conversion utility
- ffplay, a simple media player
