FFMpegCore is a .NET Standard library that provides a clean and fluent wrapper around FFmpeg and FFprobe, enabling developers to integrate media processing directly into C# applications. It simplifies the complexity of command-line FFmpeg usage by offering a strongly typed API that allows chaining operations such as transcoding, filtering, and streaming. The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous execution, making it suitable for scalable and responsive applications. It also enables media analysis through FFprobe, allowing extraction of metadata such as duration, codecs, and stream information. FFMpegCore supports working with files and streams, enabling flexible workflows including in-memory processing. Developers can build complex pipelines using a fluent argument builder while maintaining readability and control. Overall, it serves as a powerful bridge between FFmpeg capabilities and modern .NET development environments.
