DESCRIPTION
The libavutil library is a utility library to aid portable multimedia
programming. It contains safe portable string functions, random number

for pixel and sample formats). It is not a library for code needed by
both libavcodec and libavformat.
The goals for this library is to be:
Modular
It should have few interdependencies and the possibility of
disabling individual parts during ./configure.
Small
Both sources and objects should be small.
Efficient
It should have low CPU and memory usage.
Useful
It should avoid useless features that almost no one needs.
