Introduction to Libquicktime

The Libquicktime package contains the Libquicktime library, various plugins and codecs, along with graphical and command line utilities used for encoding and decoding Quicktime files. This is useful for reading and writing files in the Quicktime format. The goal of the project is to enhance, while providing compatibility with, the Quicktime 4 Linux library.

Short Descriptions

libquicktime_config: is a graphical front end to examine and configure the available libquicktime audio and video codecs.

lqt-config: is a simple program used to query the libquicktime installation settings and plugin information.

lqt_transcode: is a command-line program used to encode video and/or audio files from one format to another.

lqtplay: is a simple Quicktime movie player for X11.

qtdechunk: can take movies containing rgb frames and write them out as ppm images.

qtrechunk: concatenates input frames into a Quicktime movie.

qtyuv4toyuv: is used to write a YUV4 encoded movie as a planar YUV 4:2:0 file.

libquicktime.so: is a library for reading and writing Quicktime files. It provides convenient access to Quicktime files with a variety of supported codecs. The library contains new functions integrated with all the original Quicktime 4 Linux library functions used to encode and decode Quicktime files.
