The FFmpeg libraries are dynamically linked to the builds provided, which means that you'll need a local installation of these libraries in order for the external to work.
A package manager is probably the ideal way to install them. Otherwise, they are available at ffmpeg.org/download.html, just be sure to get the "Shared" builds, and place them in a location where the external is able to find them.
Includes the following features:
- play/pause and seek functionality
- changing the speed of playback
- reading and iterating through m3u playlists
- opening files from http urls.
- retrieving metadata
- specifying additional channels as creation args for files with surround sound.
- In the help file, you'll notice ffplay~ has the creation arguments 1 2 5 6.
The 5 and 6 represent rear-left and rear-right channels. - A full list of available channels can be found here: github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/libavutil/channel_layout.h
- In the help file, you'll notice ffplay~ has the creation arguments 1 2 5 6.
EDIT: changes in playback speed should now have smoother transitions
EDIT2: forgot to add ufloat.h to the .zip
