A complete set of functions to read and write H.264 video bitstreams, in particular to examine or modify headers.

1. Install pre-requisites (Debian, Ubuntu)

   sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool

2. Auto-reconfigure the project

   autoreconf -i

3. Run the generated configure script and build the project

   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
   make

4. Optionally, install the binaries in /usr/local/

   make install

This will produce /usr/local/bin/h264_analyze and /usr/local/lib/libh264bitstream.
