A series of lessons from FFmpeg teaching x86 assembly language (SIMD) as used in FFmpeg's optimized code paths. It includes assignments and community support aimed at preparing learners to contribute to FFmpeg.
Use cases
- learn x86 assembly for multimedia optimization
- understand SIMD programming in FFmpeg
- prepare to contribute assembly code to FFmpeg
- study how video decoding is optimized with assembly
- practice writing hand-optimized SIMD kernels
When to choose
- you already know C and pointers and want to learn assembly
- you want to contribute performance-critical code to FFmpeg
- you want a practical, project-based introduction to SIMD
When to avoid
- you are a complete beginner without C knowledge
- you need general-purpose assembly tutorials unrelated to multimedia
- you want structured courses with graded assignments and certification
