FFmpeg

FFmpeg is a free software project that produces libraries and programs for handling multimedia data.

Current versions of Pano2VR do not require a separately installed FFmpeg executable. Poster-frame extraction, media conversion, and animation-video output use Qt Multimedia and the codecs available in the application’s media backend.

This glossary entry is retained for projects and documentation referring to older Pano2VR versions, which required users to install and configure an FFmpeg executable.
