GSOC 2020: Writing a FLIF Decoder and Encoder for FFmpeg

GSOC 2020: Writing a FLIF Decoder and Encoder for FFmpeg

[Free Lossless Image Format][1], or FLIF is the precursor to [JPEG XL][2] and [FUIF][3]. It claims to have a higher level of compression or lower file size than conventional lossless image formats like PNG, Lossless JPEG 2000, etc. FLIF and FUIF development has been stopped in favour of JPEG XL.

[The task was to write an encoder and decoder for this format for FFmpeg.][4]
