How to build

VideoViewer requires some dependencies to be installed on the system:

cmake v3.20 or higher
glfw v3.4.0
Python 3

We recommend using Conan 2.x to retrieve those dependencies:

conan install . -b missing -pr YOUR_CONAN_PROFILE

As some dependencies are also retrieved through submodules, you will need to initialize them:

git submodule update --init --recursive

VideoMaster SDK

The VideoMaster SDK (version >= 6.26) is required to build the application.

After installing the SDK according to the official documentation, the libs and headers should be found without further step needed through the find_package command.

Building with CMake

If you used Conan to retrieve your dependencies, you can use the following commands to build the project:

cmake --preset YOUR_CMAKE_PRESET
cmake --build build

How to use

All relevant information regarding the application can be found by running the application with the --help option:

./videomaster-video-monitor --help

For example, to run the application with the default settings (same as --device 0 --input 0), simply run:

./videomaster-video-monitor

To select the device and connector indexes to use

./videomaster-video-monitor --device 0 --input 0

Use the device at index 0 and the reception connector at index 0.
