##### **FFmpeg** is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

FFmpeg is the leading multimedia framework, able to decode, encode, transcode, mux, demux,
stream, filter and play pretty much anything that humans and machines have created.
It supports the most obscure ancient formats up to the cutting edge.
No matter if they were designed by some standards committee, the community or a corporation.
It is also highly portable: FFmpeg compiles, runs, and passes our testing infrastructure FATE
across Linux, Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, the BSDs, Solaris, etc. under a wide variety of
build environments, machine architectures, and configurations.

*This BINARY codec/library is especially useful for Opera and other Chromium-based web browsers as those do not support proprietary playback out-of-the-box.*

***This is the pre-built LIBRARY from [nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt](https://github.com/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt)***.

Opera Chromium builds for Linux are built on top of **EXTENDED** / **STABLE** Chromium versions for **Windows**; more at:
