For a scientific project i need to compress video data. The video however doesn’t contain natural video and the quality characteristics of the compression will be different than for natural footage (preservation of hard edges for example is more important than smooth gradients or color correctness).
I’m looking for a library that can be easily integrated in an existing c++ project and that let’s me experiment with different video compression algorithms.
Any suggestions?
Look at FFmpeg. It is the the most mature open source tool for video compression and decompression. It comes with a command line tool, and with libraries for codecs and muxers/demuxers that can be statically or dynamically linked.
