Description

Keeps older multimedia applications working by supplying FFmpeg library versions 55 that current FFmpeg no longer provides. It helps legacy software continue using the codec and container APIs it was built for.

Compatibility libraries are dependency packages, not user-facing apps. Prefer maintained applications because old multimedia libraries may lag behind current security fixes.
