The software underlying ffmpeg exists as several libraries, called (if I
remember correctly) avcodec, avformat, avfilter and avutil. On linux systems
they tend to be called "libavformat" etc, on windows they are often compiled
into the executable but are sometimes found as "avformat.dll" or similar.
It is possible to use these libraries independently of ffmpeg, but the
documentation is extremely thin and you will need to know what you're doing.
Most of the projects that use them seem to hire members of the informal group
that works on them.
