 The actual content of all this directories depends on how the FFmpeg was configured before assembling. For my purpose I enabled only *libavcodec*, *libavformat*, *libavutil* and *libswscale*, but you can set your own configuration to make the FFmpeg you need.
 The version of FFmpeg here by default is **4.1.4** (but can be overridden). And the script expects to use **at least** Android NDK **r19** (*r20* also works ok). Starting with FFmpeg 4.1 and NDK r19 the whole process became much simpler.
