A safe and ergonomic Rust interface for FFmpeg integration, designed for ease of use.

fn main() {
    // docs.rs builds documentation in a network-blocked sandbox and may lack a
    // matching FFmpeg dev environment, so the crate compiles its FFI call sites
    // as stubs there (see the `#[cfg(docsrs)]` / `#[cfg(not(docsrs))]` gates
    // throughout `src/`). docs.rs sets `DOCS_RS=1` in the build environment;
    // mirror that into a `docsrs` cfg so those stubs are selected only on docs.rs.
    //
    // `docsrs` is deliberately NOT a Cargo feature. A Cargo feature is enabled by
    // `--all-features`, which would compile the stubs into an ordinary build — and
    // those stubs skip the real FFmpeg calls, leaving a binary that segfaults the
    // moment it opens a file. Keying off `DOCS_RS` instead means a normal
    // `cargo build`/`test`/`run` (with or without `--all-features`) always compiles
    // the real FFmpeg path; only docs.rs ever sees the stubs. (The stubs guard
    // rustdoc's type-check, not runtime — docs.rs never executes this code.)

    // metadata entry per probed FFmpeg version / API macro, and Cargo hands
    // those to direct dependents as `DEP_FFMPEG_*` environment variables.
    // Re-emit the true ones as plain cfgs (`ffmpeg_8_0`, `ffmpeg_7_1`, ...)
    // so sources can gate on the FFmpeg actually linked — the same mechanism
    // ffmpeg-next's build.rs uses for its version features. Keys with an
    // empty value mark versions/macros the linked FFmpeg does NOT have; they
    // still get a check-cfg declaration so e.g. `#[cfg(ffmpeg_8_0)]` lints
    // clean when building against FFmpeg 7.x.

    // whole build script on an unrelated non-UTF-8 environment variable.
