FFmpeg

FFmpeg is a software library for reading and writing a wide range of image, movie and audio files. It is used by the Movie File In TOP and the Movie File Out TOP as well as other audio and video reading/writing nodes.

ffmpeg.exe is included in TouchDesigner's bin folder. TouchDesigner TOPs do most of what ffmpeg.exe does. Where they do not, one of many sites with ffmpeg.exe examples is labnol.org
