Tiny Rust safe wrapper for SVT-AV1

docs

Warning

This crate must be used with SVT-AV1 2.3.0 version. SVT-AV1 library API is subject to change with new releases, so if you want to use it with different version, do it at your own risk!

Usage

Before using this crate, you have to follow two steps:

1. Choose one of two crate features: static or dynamic
2. Provide compiled SVT-AV1 library files

The crate has two features:

• static - link SVT-AV1 as static library (using .a or .lib file)
• dynamic - link SVT-AV1 as dynamic library (using .so, .dylib or .dll file)

For example:

svt-av1-enc = { version = "0.1", features = ["static"] }

Providing library files can be done in two ways:

1. Specify SVT_AV1_LIB env variable, which contains path to compiled library files (recommended way)
2. If you not specify SVT_AV1_LIB variable, build script will use pkg-config (make sure it installed) to find installed in a system SVT-AV1 files

I highly recommend compile SVT-AV1 from source and set SVT_AV1_LIB env variable to complied files. Many distros have outdated version of SVT-AV1 and it can cause problems using this crate. Building SVT-AV1 from source is relatively ease and doesn't require a lot of dependencies. Build guide can be found here
