libass is a subtitle rendering library for the ASS/SSA (Advanced Substation Alpha/SubStation Alpha) subtitle format.

mpv is a general-purpose audio and video player. It is a fork of mplayer2 and MPlayer. It shares some features with the former projects while introducing many more.

Libdvdread provides a simple foundation for reading DVD video disks. It provides the functionality that is required to access many DVDs. It parses IFO files, reads NAV-blocks, and performs CSS authentication and descrambling (if an external libdvdcss library is installed).

Pipe-Viewer is a lightweight application for searching and playing videos from YouTube. It parses the YouTube website directly and relies on the Invidious instances only as a fallback method.

Wlstream is a screen capture tool for recording audio and video from a Wayland session.

This kernel module implements a basic interface to the IVSHMEM device for Looking Glass.

FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It includes the libavcodec audio/video codec library.

OpenShot Library (libopenshot) is a powerful C++ video editing library with a multi-threaded and feature rich video editing API. It includes bindings for Python, Ruby, and other languages.

The mpvpaper package provides a wallpaper program for wlroots-based wayland compositors, allowing you to play videos as your wallpaper using mpv.

rav1e is an AV1 video encoder. It is designed to eventually cover all use cases, though in its current form it is most suitable for cases where libaom (the reference encoder) is too slow.

libplacebo is, in a nutshell, the core rendering algorithms and ideas of mpv rewritten as an independent library. As of today, libplacebo contains a large assortment of video processing shaders, focusing on both quality and performance.

Schroedinger is a project implementing the Dirac video codec in ANSI C code. It is meant to be highly optimized and portable. It is developed as a joint effort between the BBC and Fluendo.

This plugin adds 3 sources for capturing audio outputs, inputs and applications using PipeWire.

The main motivation for VA-API (Video Acceleration API) is to enable hardware accelerated video decode/encode at various entry-points (VLD, IDCT, Motion Compensation etc.) for prevailing coding standards (MPEG-2, MPEG-4 ASP/H.263, MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, and VC-1/VMW3).

GTK+ UVC Viewer (guvcview) is a graphical application to control a webcam accessible with Video4Linux (V4L2) and to capture videos and images. It provides control over precise settings of the webcam such as exposure, brightness, contrast, and frame rate.

This package provides a command-line interface for Twitch.tv

This program normalizes media files to a certain loudness level using the EBU R128 loudness normalization procedure. It can also perform RMS-based normalization (where the mean is lifted or attenuated), or peak normalization to a certain target level. Batch processing of several input files is possible, including video files.

libdvbpsi is a simple library designed for decoding and generation of MPEG TS and DVB PSI tables according to standards ISO/IEC 13818s and ITU-T H.222.0.

ytcc is a command line tool to keep track of your favorite playlists.

The v4l-utils provide a series of libraries and utilities to be used for realtime video capture via Linux-specific APIs.

Plugin for OBS Studio which is intended to allow users to apply their own shaders to OBS sources. This theoretically makes possible some simple effects like drop shadows that can be implemented strictly in shader code.

SMPEG (SDL MPEG Player Library) is a free MPEG1 video player library with sound support. Video playback is based on the ubiquitous Berkeley MPEG player, mpeg_play v2.2. Audio is played through a slightly modified mpegsound library, part of splay v0.8.2. SMPEG supports MPEG audio (MP3), MPEG-1 video, and MPEG system streams.

Libaom is the reference implementation of AV1. It includes a shared library and encoder and decoder command-line executables.

This is the VA-API back end required for hardware-accelerated video processing on Intel GEN Graphics devices supported by the i915 driver, such as integrated Intel HD Graphics. It provides access to both hardware and shader functionality for faster encoding, decoding, and post-processing of video formats like MPEG2, H.264/AVC, and VC-1.
