Acinerella is a simple wrapper for the playback facilities of the FFMpeg libraries libavcodec and libavutils. Because of a very simple API that only needs about 10 functions, it takes only a few minutes to convert its header file. Therefore Acinerella is easy to use with other programming languages and lets you create your own video or audio player in a very short time.
Acinerella allows you to load your media streams directly from memory without the need of registering an ominous protocol format.
Easy to use API
Acinerella does all the "FFMpeg stuff" for you. Decoding videos was never easier.
A single compact library
FFMpeg can be staticaly linked into Acinerella
Easy to use with other programming languages
The Acinerella header file has only about 120 lines and is easy to port to other programming languages. A pascal header exists.
Cross plattform
Acinerella and FFMpeg are cross-plattform - A Win32 package is available.
Make sure you have a recent version of FFMpeg and CMake installed. Under Linux, building Acinerella is as simple as runing the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/astoeckel/acinerella
cd acinerella && mkdir build && cd build;
cmake .. && make
