+such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.
+
+## Libraries

+* `libavcodec` provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
+* `libavformat` implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
+* `libavutil` includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
+* `libavfilter` provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
+* `libavdevice` provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
+* `libswresample` implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
+* `libswscale` implements color conversion and scaling routines.
+
+## Tools
+
+* [ffmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html) is a command line toolbox to
+ manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
+* [ffplay](https://ffmpeg.org/ffplay.html) is a minimalistic multimedia player.
+* [ffprobe](https://ffmpeg.org/ffprobe.html) is a simple analysis tool to inspect
+ multimedia content.
+* [ffserver](https://ffmpeg.org/ffserver.html) is a multimedia streaming server
+ for live broadcasts.
