FFmpeg libraries for Windows

[Sergey Tkachenko]

For your convenience, we uploaded FFmpeg binary libraries on our site:
http://www.trichview.com/resources/thir ... ffmpeg.zip

It includes both 32-bit and 64-bit libraries.
32-bit DLLs are in build_ffmpeg_shared_32\bin\.
64-bit DLLs are in build_ffmpeg_shared_64\bin\.

FFmpeg does not require special installation. Just place *.dll files in the folder of your application, or in any folder included in the PATH environment variable.
When uninstalling your application, simply delete these files.

The version of FFmpeg above is rather old.
While the version above is ok for playing video, it offers a small count of codecs for encoding (and some of them were experimental).
I suggest taking newer version of FFmpeg from ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/ (RVMedia 5.3 or newer is required to use the newest version of FFmpeg 4; choose the "Shared" option); or create your own build of FFmpeg.

Update 2020-09-21: Unfortunately, Zeranoe FFmpeg builds were closed.

IMPORTANT: do not use FFmpeg version 4.3.1, it crashes with RVMedia.
Use either older versions (4.2.1 and older), or newer versions (for example, ffmpeg-20200809-6e951d0-win32-shared is OK).

Since the old Zeranoe link does not work anymore, we need to find other download sources.

Two of them can be found here:

Unfortunately, only Win64 builds are available.
I hope 32-bit libraries will be available too.

RVMedia supports FFmpeg versions 2.x, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x
