+
+# libmpv2-rs
+
+A libmpv abstraction written in rust that's easy to use and provides the ability to read next to all video and audio codecs.
+
+# Dependencies
+
+Rust version >= 1.30. Libmpv version 2.0 (mpv version 0.35.0) is the minimum required version.
+
+For ease of building, you can use the `build_libmpv` feature that is used to link against. Especially useful to cross compile to windows. The `MPV_SOURCE` environment variable needs to be set to a directory containing the mpv source you want to build against. For windows targets this is expected to be already built, with a directory named `MPV_SOURCE/64` or `/32` containing [build artifacts](https://mpv.srsfckn.biz/) for 64-bit and 32-bit targets respectively. On unix this is expected to be a copy of the mpv-build repo.
+
+# Examples
+
+To run an example, execute `cargo run [--release] --example x -- test-data/jellyfish.mp4`, where x is any of:
+
+- `events`: event enumeration
+- `protocol`: implementation of custom `filereader://` protocol that… reads files
+- `opengl`: openGL rendering onto SDL2 window
