Synopsis

This Ruby extension implements a Qt4 widget (compatible with qtruby4) for hardware accelerated video output.

Installation

This Ruby extension requires Qt4, QtRuby4 and the software scaling library. If you are running Debian or (K)ubuntu, you can install them like this:

$ sudo aptitude install libqt4-ruby1.8 qt4-dev-tools libswscale-dev libboost-dev

To install this Ruby extension, use the following command:

$ sudo gem install hornetseye-qt4

Alternatively you can build and install the Ruby extension from source as follows:

$ rake
$ sudo rake install

Usage

Simply run Interactive Ruby:

$ irb

You can use {Hornetseye::XvWidget} as shown below. This example implements a video player with a minimalistic GUI.
