Raspberry Pi video decode demo.
This uses the OpenMAX library to decode video from inside Python with hardware acceleration.
The Raspberry Pi does not ship with audio decode VLLs so this only decodes the video stream.
USAGE
EXAMPLE A (play a complete video)
import pyopenmax pyopenmax.play("/home/pi/transformers.mp4") # Full pathname is required
EXAMPLE B (play video starting from 10 seconds in)
from pyopenmax import VideoPlayer vp = VideoPlayer(videofile) vp.seek(10) vp.wait() vp.close()
