Recently, I want to learn ffmpeg, download the code, configure the environment, and compile it successfully. There was no problem when I came all the way down, but when I wanted to study the code, I found that it was a bit inconvenient.
Third-rate programmers like me don't really need some IDE-like tools to facilitate jumping like this. vim is impossible vim, vim is impossible in this life. I can only use ide like this, the jump of ide is convenient...
Fortunately, ffmpeg officials have introduced how to import ffmpeg projects on eclipse, which is really good news.

It seems to be possible to use visual studio, but this is unofficial, and the packaging method of makefile needs to be converted to visual c++.
