## What it is
FFmpReg is a Rust-native multimedia toolkit that decodes, transforms, and encodes audio and video without requiring FFmpeg, offering both a CLI and a library API. It emphasizes safe, deterministic, modular media pipelines with explicit developer control.

## Use cases
- transcode audio files without ffmpeg
- convert wav files from the command line
- inspect media file frame metadata like ffprobe
- apply gain and normalization transforms to audio
- batch process media files with glob patterns
- integrate media decoding and encoding into a rust application

## When to choose
- you want a memory-safe Rust alternative to FFmpeg for basic audio/video processing
- you need a library API for building custom media pipelines in Rust
- you prefer explicit, deterministic pipelines over FFmpeg's complexity

## When to avoid
- you need broad codec and container support comparable to FFmpeg
- you need a battle-tested, production-stable media tool
- you require advanced video filters or hardware acceleration

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: experimental
- function: audio-processing, video-processing, cli, parser
- domain: media, developer-tools
- platform: rust, cli, cross-platform
- tags: ffmpeg-alternative, transcoding, media-toolkit, safe-rust, ffprobe-alternative, audio, video, command-line
