The script also produces `ffmpeg` and `ffprobe` executables that can be used in Android's terminal directly or can even be embedded into an Android app. They can be found in `build` directory after the successful build.

## Customization
The actual content of `output` directory depends on how the FFmpeg was configured before assembling. The [master](https://github.com/Javernaut/ffmpeg-android-maker) branch of ffmpeg-android-maker builds 'vanilla' version of FFmpeg. This means all default components and libraries are built (according to the image).

The [what-the-codec](https://github.com/Javernaut/ffmpeg-android-maker/tree/what-the-codec) branch contains certain customizations in build scripts of FFmpeg and certain external libraries. These customizations are meant to be an example of how this project can be tuned to obtain the only functionality that is actually needed. The [WhatTheCodec](https://github.com/Javernaut/WhatTheCodec) Android app uses only a subset of FFmpeg's functionality, so the redundant parts are not even compiled. This gives much smaller output binaries.
