FFMPEG
Extend LevelOne with virtually any file type
By default LevelOne supports all major audio file formats (such as WAV, AIFF, MP3 and some more). But there are hundreds of file types and codecs around. To analyse and process these files we've created a bridge to FFmpeg. FFmpeg is a library that includes virtually every available codec (including video codecs). Once FFmpeg is installed, LevelOne will take care of all interaction with the library. Files will be analysed and processed in the same manner as native supported file types are handled.
Please keep the following in mind when using FFmpeg:
- FFmpeg is not being developed by us and we're not affiliated with FFmpeg.
- FFmpeg includes virtually every codec available, some codecs are proprietary and require licensing to use. Please see this page for more info.
