PlaYUVer - Enhanced raw video player

plaYUVer is an open-source video player with the following features:

• Support for libavformat and libavcodec;
• Support for wide range of raw video formats;
• Support up to 16 bits per pixel
• Support for OpenCV image/video processing library
• Advanced frame zoom with easy to use pan function
• Synchronized zoom across several videos (perfect for comparison operations)
• Useful information in status bar, e.g., pixel information Useful sidebars with frame information, e.g., frame histogram
• Constant growing libs for stream and frame processing (PlaYUVerStream PlaYUVerFrame)
• Advanced API for frame/video processing algorithms
• Frame level quality measurement API based on the PlaYUVerFrame class
• Command-line tool for quality and frame processing algorithms (uses the referred APIs)

Build

Download update build for windows and linux from our SourceForge project page

Building yourself

1. Dependencies

• an ordinary C++ development environment (g++, make, C++ libraries and headers, ...)
• cmake
• a Qt development environment (libraries, headers, qmake, ...): only QtCore, QtGui and QtWidgets are required, at least in version 4
• QtDBus (optional)
• OpenCv (optional)
• FFmpeg (optional)

2. Example configuration command

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DUSE_QT4=OFF -DUSE_FFMPEG=ON -DUSE_OPENCV=ON ..  (for FFmpeg and OpenCV support)
make
make install
