Hello, I’m using an Intel Mac, and want to develop a program that
plays (around with) video files with graphical filters and such. I
plan on using OpenGL for the visual parts but need a cross-platform
setup for input, setup of the context, sound?, etc… I’ve played
around with SDL for games and such (JUST a little bit), and I’d like
to use it, but I don’t know if SDL has any video decoding/encoding
capabilities? I’ve tried to compile ffmpeg to use that, but for some
reason it doesn’t seem to build correctly on my Intel machine… and
nobody over at that list seems to know how to help (I’ve asked)…
So, what sort of things might SDL COME with for that? Or does anyone
know of an extension other than SDL_Mpeg that I could use on at LEAST
Mac/Windows?
Thanks,
Scott
Nevermind, I finally got ffmpeg to build.
