[FFmpeg-devel] archive ffmpeg all objs into one lib, feasible?

[Marcus Johnson]

No, it won't work because the libraries are for different purposes.

as per your example, 4xm in the libavcodec directory is for decoding the
file, it implements the actual algorithm. 4xm in the libavformat directory
is for demuxing the codec from the 4xm container, you need both for it to
work.
