ofxHapPlayer

A Hap player for OpenFrameworks on MacOS X and Windows.

Hap is a codec for fast video playback and is available for free here - it is required for accelerated playback using this addon.

The master branch of this repo aims to keep up to date with OpenFrameworks releases. An of_head branch aims to keep up to date with development work on OpenFrameworks' master branch.

Usage

#import "ofxHapPlayer.h"

ofxHapPlayer inherits from ofBaseVideoPlayer

player.loadMovie("movies/MyMovieName.mov");

When you want to draw:

player.draw(20, 20);

Note that there is no direct access to pixels and calls to getPixels() will return NULL.

Advanced Usage

You can access the texture directly:

ofTexture *texture = player.getTexture();

Note that if you access the texture directly for a Hap Q movie, you will need to use a shader when you draw:

ofShader *shader = player.getShader();
// the result of getShader() will be NULL if the movie is not Hap Q
if (shader)
{
    shader->begin();
}
texture.draw(x,y,w,h);
if (shader)
{
    shader->end();
}
