OMXPlayer

OMXPlayer is a commandline OMX player for the Raspberry Pi. It was developed as a testbed for the XBMC Raspberry PI implementation and is quite handy to use standalone.

Downloading OMXPlayer

git clone git://github.com/huceke/omxplayer.git

Compiling OMXPlayer

GCC version 4.7 is required.

Cross Compiling

You need the content of your sdcard somewhere mounted or copied. There might be development headers to install on the running Pi system for the crosscompiling.

Edit Makefile.include and change the settings according your locations.

Compiling on the Pi

You can also compile it on the PI the native way ;)

Running OMXPlayer

make ffmpeg
make
make dist

Installing OMXPlayer

Copy over omxplayer-dist/* to the Pi /. You may want to specify a valid font path inside the omxplayer shell script.
