[faec3f7]31 <para>
32 <application>FFmpeg</application> is a solution to record, convert and
33 stream audio and video. It is a very fast video and audio converter and it
34 can also acquire from a live audio/video source. Designed to be intuitive,
35 the command-line interface (<command>ffmpeg</command>) tries to figure out
36 all the parameters, when possible. <application>FFmpeg</application> can
37 also convert from any sample rate to any other, and resize video on the
38 fly with a high quality polyphase filter.
[a161de9]39 <application>FFmpeg</application> can use a Video4Linux compatible video
[faec3f7]40 source and any Open Sound System audio source.

259 To properly test the installation you must have <xref linkend="rsync"/>
260 installed and follow the instructions for the <ulink
261 url="http://www.ffmpeg.org/fate.html"> FFmpeg Automated Testing
[7e1afc9]262 Environment</ulink> (FATE). First, about 1 GB of sample files used to
[dc29e3ac]263 run FATE are downloaded with the command:
264 </para>
265
[a42c273]266<screen remap="test"><userinput>make fate-rsync SAMPLES=fate-suite/</userinput></screen>
[dc29e3ac]267
268 <para>
269 The <filename class="directory">fate-suite</filename> directory is
[2adbd3da]270 created and the files are downloaded there. That command actually runs an
[e200fb6]271 rsync command to obtain the sample files. You may want to compress and
272 keep this directory for testing again, for testing in another system,
273 or for when a new version of ffmpeg is released. Then, unpack the sample
274 files in the source directory, and run the <command>make fate-rsync
275 ...</command> command above to sync with the upstream repository. The
276 download size and time are drastically reduced by doing this. Estimated
277 values in "Package Information" do not include the download SBU. Some
278 samples may have been removed in newer versions, so in order to be sure
279 local and server fate samples are identical when you use previously
280 saved samples, run the following command:
[2adbd3da]281 </para>

[f3429309]285
[2adbd3da]286 <para>
[e200fb6]287 Next, execute FATE with the following commands (there are more than 3800
288 tests in the suite):
