Martin Storsjö 59384ce6b6 tests: Fix fate-run.sh to handle busybox-w32 absolute paths
Busybox-w32 uses regular Windows style paths with drive letters,
but with forward slashes; thus an absolute path starts with "c:/".

Make the target_path() function in fate-run.sh (which converts a
potentially relative path to an absolute one, under the target_path
prefix) handle this case.

With this in place, running fate tests almost works in
busybox-w32 - only one issue remains. A patch [1] has been sent to
upstream busybox for fixing that issue (which also is present if
running fate tests on busybox on Linux), but it hasn't been
responded to yet.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
