SDK API Reference
FFmpeg Customization
We have forked the original FFmpeg and added customized features to provide more video frame information including the frame's width and height, frame rate number, etc. These features will help to implement video hardware decoding.
The SDK Sample Code uses code of FFmpeg licensed under the LGPLv2.1 and its source code can be downloaded from this Github Page.
Video Hardware Decoder Open Source
