OMXPlayer is a commandline OMX player for the Raspberry Pi. It was developed as a testbed for the XBMC Raspberry PI implementation and is quite handy to use standalone.
git clone git://github.com/gstein/omxplayer.git
This fork of huceke/omxplayer is intended for building natively on the Raspberry Pi device under the Raspbian distribution.
The following packages should be installed first:
libavcodec-dev
libavdevice-dev
libavfilter-dev
libboost-dev
libpcre3-dev
No configuration is needed. Simply:
make
This will produce omxplayer.bin within the build directory.
The omxplayer script can be used to run omxplayer.bin.
Note: Raspbian installs the omxplayer package by default. The script looks for that package. Tweak the script, or uninstall the package.
NOTE: I have used a custom script to test omxplayer.bin, rather than
the included omxplayer script. I need to set up a better test
environment to tweak omxplayer. Just edit the script for your setup.
