Description-en: library to read, create, and modify mp4 files (development files)
The MP4v2 library provides an API to create and modify mp4 files as
defined by ISO-IEC:14496-1:2001 MPEG-4 Systems. This file format is
derived from Apple's QuickTime file format that has been used as a
multimedia file format in a variety of platforms and applications. It is
a very powerful and extensible format that can accommodate practically
any type of media.
.
MP4v2 was originally bundled with mpeg4ip library, but has been moved
into its own maintained library due to a combination of the cessation of
support of mpeg4ip and the usefulness of this library on its own.
.
This package contains development files.
