Overview
OggPlay is a library designed to allow drop-in playback of Xiph.Org media in an application. OggPlay handles demuxing and decoding, generates timestamps for raw data, maintains synchronisation across multiple streams, and provides a lock-free buffer implementation for easy multithreading.
An example use of OggPlay library is OggPlay Mozilla Firefox plugin demonstrating how the library can be used to provide Ogg playback in a web browser. OggPlay plugin is implemented through Mozilla NPAPI. The target platforms for the plugin are: Linux/UNIX, Win200x/XP/Vista and MACOSX. The libary as much as the plugin are open source under triple MPL/GPL/LGPL license. For more details about Mozilla licesing refer to Mozilla Code Licensing.
OggPlay is a work in progress: the first release should be availably by mid-2007.
OggPlay is located on Annodex, which has been moved in March over to the Xiph.Org servers. SVN access to the source code is available through http://svn.annodex.net/liboggplay/trunk.
Developer's Guide
Linux
1. It is assumed that you managed to check out current sources of the plugin from http://svn.annodex.net/liboggplay/trunk tree (e.g. svn co http:\/\/svn.annodex.net\/liboggplay\/trunk \.\/liboggplay). The rest of the installation steps assume that you checked out the code to the ./liboggplay directory.
2. To compile liboggplay, in the main 'liboggplay' directory do:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make; make install
3. As a result of the checkout you should have a plugin directory under the liboggplay tree. After a sucessful build you should have the following files:
plugin/.libs/libnpoggplugin.so<br?
plugin/npliboggplugin.xpt
Copy those file to .mozilla/plugins in your local directory by executing copy-plugin.sh or directly copying them e.g.
cd plugin
cp .libs/libnpoggplugin.so $HOME/.mozilla/plugins
cp npliboggplugin.xpt $HOME/.mozilla/plugins
4. The 'plugin' directory also has a test html page you can use to test the plugin (see ./plugin/test/test.html). Alternatively, you can go to: http://media.annodex.net/cmmlwiki/SFD2005-Trailer to test the plugin.
If you can see the video playing using either method the plugin is successfully installed. Enjoy!
