Supported external libraries

Currently the ffmpeg-android-maker supports only external libraries from the table below. The script automatically downloads their source code and builds according to specified script arguments.

External libraries don't depend on each other. You are free to enable only those you actually need.

Library name	Flag to enable	Notes
libaom	‑‑enable‑libaom or ‑aom	The encoder in this library requires Android API at least 18 to be compiled (‑android=18). The decoder can be built without this argument (the fallback is API 16).
libdav1d	‑‑enable‑libdav1d or ‑dav1d	Uses Meson build system. Certain versions of Meson can't build the library for reasons. 0.52.1 and 0.53.2 are ok. Also this library requires nasm >= 2.14 and ninja >= 1.9. If installing all necessary software is an issue for you check out the Docker support page.
libmp3lame	‑‑enable‑libmp3lame or ‑mp3lame or ‑lame
libopus	‑‑enable‑libopus or ‑opus
libspeex	‑‑enable‑libspeex or ‑speex
libtwolame	‑‑enable‑libtwolame or ‑twolame	Currently without libsndfile dependency
libwavpack	‑‑enable‑libwavpack or ‑wavpack
