Main Page

This is the homepage for the Theora Playback Library (libtheoraplayer).

You can use this library to stream any number of Ogg theora video files in your application.

The library has an abstracted audio and video interface so you can use it in any environment you wish (OpenGL, DirectX, SDL, Windows GDI, X11...)

It runs equally good on Windows Mac and Linux, i386, x64 and PowerPC. And it also works on iOS! (Android port is in development!)

Bug reports and features requests are welcome. Please spread word of this project!
