C-Play : Immersive Media Player
General
C-Play is a video/media player developed for cluster environments where you need multiple computers and/or displays to run your content on. The displays could be flat or curved in any setup that is supported by our underlying toolkit SGCT and any media format supported by MPV.
These are just some features that set C-Play apart from others media/video players:
C-Play support media that is:
-
Stereoscopic (Side-by-side or Top-Bottom) and Monoscopic
-
180 fulldome / fisheye
-
360 equirectangular or equiangular cubemap (common on YouTube)
-
Any "flat" media arbitary aspect ratio
Media can be added as layers within slides, using numerous inputs, such as
-
Images (JPG and PNGs)
-
PDF (Common export format from PPT)
-
Videos (H264, HEVC/H265, AV1/H266, VP9 etc)
-
Audio (WAV, AAC etc)
-
NDI (Live streams form local network)
-
Streams (Youtube etc supported through FFmpeg)
With above layers, you can make it as easy as using powerpoint to create an immersive presentation.
