## 📝 Acknowledge
This package will output video into images (in frame). This might causes
many I/O times and disk space (Even though these frames will eventually get
cleaned up). I would like to mention you all the information and consequences
before you use this package.
*See [melpa/6560](https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/6560) for more information.*
## External Program
This package uses these following programs, make sure these program are added
to your path.
* [ffmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/)
* [ffplay](https://www.ffmpeg.org/) - Bundle with `ffmpeg`.
## 🔌 Capability
Base on `ffplay`'s website.
> ffplay is a very simple and portable media player using the FFmpeg libraries
and the SDL library. It is mostly used as a testbed for the various FFmpeg APIs.
Hence, I have encounter some issues synchronize video and audio. Try move the
timeline by pressing `` or `` key multiple times could resolve
such an issue.
## 🔧 Usage
You can play the video by calling function `ffmpeg-player-video`.
```el
(ffmpeg-player-video (expand-file-name "./test/1.avi"))
```
And here is the control of the media.
* space - Pause/Unpause.
* up - Increase volume by 5.
* down - Decrease volume by 5.
* left - Backward timeline 10 seconds.
* right - Forward timeline 10 seconds.
* m - Mute/Unmute.
* r - Replay.
