@section FFmpeg does not support codec XXX. Can you include a Windows DLL loader to support it?
No. FFmpeg only supports open source codecs. Windows DLLs are not
portable, bloated and often slow.

@section I get "Unsupported codec (id=86043) for input stream #0.1". What is the problem?
This is the Qcelp codec, FFmpeg has no support for that codec currently. Try mencoder/mplayer it might work.
@section Why do I see a slight quality degradation with multithreaded MPEG* encoding ?
@section Why do I see a slight quality degradation with multithreaded MPEG* encoding?
For multithreaded MPEG* encoding, the encoded slices must be independent,
otherwise thread n would practically have to wait for n-1 to finish, so it's
quite logical that there is a small reduction of quality. This is not a bug.

@section Are there examples illustrating how to use the FFmpeg libraries, particularly libavcodec and libavformat?
Yes. Read the Developers Guide of the FFmpeg documentation. Alternatively,
examine the source code for one of the many open source projects that
already incorporate ffmpeg at (@url{projects.php}).

@section Can you add automake, libtool or autoconf support?
No. These tools are too bloated and they complicate the build.
@section Why not rewrite ffmpeg in object-oriented C++ ?
@section Why not rewrite ffmpeg in object-oriented C++?
ffmpeg is already organized in a highly modular manner and does not need to
be rewritten in a formal object language. Further, many of the developers
favor straight C; it works for them. For more arguments on this matter,
read "Programming Religion" at (@url{http://www.tux.org/lkml/#s15}).
@section Why are the ffmpeg programs devoid of debugging symbols ?
@section Why are the ffmpeg programs devoid of debugging symbols?
The build process creates ffmpeg_g, ffplay_g, etc. which contain full debug
information. Those binaries are strip'd to create ffmpeg, ffplay, etc. If
you need the debug information, used the *_g versions.

You can also try to hack it and remove more, but if you had problems fixing

@section I have a file in memory / a API different from *open/*read/ libc how do i use it with libavformat?
You have to implement a URLProtocol, see libavformat/file.c in FFmpeg
and libmpdemux/demux_lavf.c in MPlayer sources.
