### Before Build

install homebrew, git, yasm

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" brew install git brew install yasm

export ANDROID_SDK=

export ANDROID_NDK=

on Cygwin (unmaintained)

install git, make, yasm


- If you prefer more codec/format

cd config rm module.sh ln -s module-default.sh module.sh cd android/contrib

cd ios

sh compile-ffmpeg.sh clean


- If you prefer less codec/format for smaller binary size (include hevc function)

cd config rm module.sh ln -s module-lite-hevc.sh module.sh cd android/contrib

cd ios

sh compile-ffmpeg.sh clean


- If you prefer less codec/format for smaller binary size (by default)

cd config rm module.sh ln -s module-lite.sh module.sh cd android/contrib

cd ios

### Commercial Use
ijkplayer is licensed under LGPLv2.1 or later, so itself is free for commercial use under LGPLv2.1 or later

But ijkplayer is also based on other different projects under various licenses, which I have no idea whether they are compatible to each other or to your product.

[IANAL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IANAL), you should always ask your lawyer for these stuffs before use it in your product.


*Note that all licence references and agreements mentioned in the ijkplayer README section above are relevant to that project's source code only.
