Travis-CI [1] is a continous integration cloud service. It is free for open-source projects and tigthly integrated tiwh GitHub so there is really no reason for us not use it. :) For now we are going to do a total of 4 builds, mainly to test ffmpeg/libav API breakage: * ffmpeg-stable, libass-stable * ffmpeg-git, libass-stable * libav-stable, libass-stable * libav-git, libass-stable The compiler that is currently used is clang for two reasons: * running 8 build targets would be quite wasteful and take a long time * clang is less tested and used during development than gcc (especially on linux) Currently Travis doesn't support OS X environments alongside Linux ones [2]. When it will, we will add a fifth build target to test OS X compilation breakage. README was moved to markdown to add the little build status image. I ran some tests with my GitHub fork and couldn't get images to show up using ReStructured Text. [1]: https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci [2]: travis-ci/travis-ci#216

Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
**mpv** is a movie player based on MPlayer and mplayer2. It supports a wide
|
|
variety of video file formats, audio and video codecs, and subtitle types.
|
|
|
|
If you are wondering what's different from mplayer2 and MPlayer you can read
|
|
more about the [changes][changes].

|
Compilation
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Compiling with full features requires development files for several
|
|
external libraries. Below is a list of some important requirements. For
|
|
more information see the output of `./configure --help` for a list of options,
|
|
or look at the list of enabled and disabled features printed after running
|
|
`./configure`. If you think you have support for some feature installed
|
|
but configure fails to detect it, the file `config.log` may contain
|
|
information about the reasons for the failure.
|
|
|
|
Essential dependencies (incomplete list):
|
|
|
|
- gcc or clang
|
|
- X development headers (xlib, X extensions, libvdpau, libGL, libXv, ...)
|
|
- Audio output development headers (libasound, pulseaudio)
|
|
- fribidi, freetype, fontconfig development headers (for libass)
|
|
- libass
|
|
- FFmpeg libraries (libavutil libavcodec libavformat libswscale libpostproc)
|
|
- libjpeg
|
|
- libquvi if you want to play Youtube videos directly
|
|
- libx264 if you want to use encoding (has to be explicitly enabled when
|
|
compiling ffmpeg)
|
|
|
|
Most of the above libraries are available in suitable versions on normal
|
|
Linux distributions. However FFmpeg is an exception (distro versions may be
|
|
too old to work at all or work well). For that reason you may want to use
|
|
the separately available build wrapper ([mpv-build][mpv-build]) that first compiles FFmpeg
|
|
libraries and libass, and then compiles the player statically linked against
|
|
those.
|
|
|
|
If you are running Mac OSX and using homebrew we provide [homebrew-mpv][homebrew-mpv], an up
|
|
to date formula that compiles mpv with sensible dependencies and defaults for
|
|
OSX.

Contributing
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
For small changes you can just send us pull requests through GitHub. For bigger
|
|
changes come and talk to us on IRC before you start working on them. It will
|
|
make code review easier for both parties later on.
