Terminal TV

Terminal TV is a video player that allows you to display a video (or camera) into your terminal using ansi color codes. A full screen console with a font size of 11 can do approximately 30-35 fps

Documentation

Building

Libs requiered: libopencv-dev

samuel@FlutterShy:~/terminal_tv$ mkdir build
samuel@FlutterShy:~/terminal_tv$ cd build
samuel@FlutterShy:~/terminal_tv/build$ cmake ..
samuel@FlutterShy:~/terminal_tv/build$ make

Usage

You can use:

./terminal_tv input.mp4 

to load a mp4 video or this:

./terminal_tv /dev/video0
