FFmpeg Rust Video Player

A lightweight audio-video player built in Rust using FFmpeg libraries. This project demonstrates how to use FFmpeg with Rust to play back video files.

Supported Builds -

• Android
• Windows
• Linux
• Mac
• (wasm32)

Necessary Libraries

• Before building the application, you need to install the necessary libraries for your platform.

This example application requires the following libraries:

Linux

• On Linux, you need to install FFmpeg and ALSA. For example, on Debian-based systems:

sudo apt-get install clang libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libavfilter-dev libavdevice-dev libasound2-dev pkg-config

• macOS On macOS, you can use Homebrew:

brew install pkg-config ffmpeg

• Windows For Windows:

Install vcpkg.
Run vcpkg install ffmpeg --triplet x64-windows.
Make sure VCPKG_ROOT is set to where vcpkg is installed.
Make sure %VCPKG_ROOT%\installed\x64-windows\bin is in your PATH.

• WebAssembly (wasm32) For WebAssembly, additional setup might be required. Please refer to relevant documentation for building Rust applications with WebAssembly.

Building the Application

To build the application, follow these steps:

• Ensure you have installed the necessary libraries as mentioned above.
• Navigate to the root directory of the project.
• Run the following command:

cargo bundle --release

This command bundles the application along with its dependencies into a single distributable directory.
