MobileFFmpeg v4.4

on GitHub

Feature release based on FFmpeg v4.4.x.

Features

• Includes FFmpeg v4.4-dev-416
• Adds async API methods to support executing FFmpeg commands asynchronously
  • Generates a new execution id for async executions, synchronous executions uses the id 0
  • Ability to list all ongoing executions
  • Cancel a specific async execution
  • Log and statistics callbacks/delegates updated to include execution id
• Applies execution specific log levels concept. All executions have their own log level, this log level is isolated from other concurrent executions
• Introduces Config.ignoreSignal() API method to disable handling of signals. This is necessary to ignore SIGXCPU signal on Unity and other platforms that use Mono framework
• Uses Google cpu_features library instead of NDK's deprecated cpufeatures library on Android
• Updates FFprobe.getMediaInformation() implementation to use JSON parsing, which comes with more flexible MediaInformation and StreamInformation classes
• Adds FFprobe.getMediaInformationFromCommand() API method to extract media information from a custom ffprobe command
• Removes internal log line limit on Android
• Adds an API method on Android to allow setting environment variables, Config.setEnvironmentVariable()
• Does not store ffmpeg and cpu-features source code under the repository, downloads them before the build
• Removes avfoundation device in iOS LTS releases
• Removes coreimage references in iOS/tvOS build scripts and documentation, it is not supported under iOS/tvOS
• New versions of chromaprint, freetype, kvazaar, libjpeg-turbo, libvorbis, nettle, openh264, wavpack, x264 and x265
• Adds support for encoding amr-wb via vo-amrwbenc external library
  • libopencore-amrwb library dropped, since ffmpeg already includes a native amr-wb decoder
• Fixes #214, #258, #331, #381, #394, #417, #418, #438, #443, #446, #447, #462, #472, #466, #480, #508 and #511
