libdvbpsi is a simple library designed for decoding and generation of MPEG TS and DVB PSI tables according to standards ISO/IEC 13818s and ITU-T H.222.0.

Scalable Video Technology (SVT) is a software-based video coding technology that is highly optimized for Intel's Xeon processors. Using the SVT-HEVC encoder, it is possible to spread video encoding processing across multiple Intel's Xeon processors to achieve a real advantage of processing efficiency. Note that this package requires the AVX2 instruction, which means it will not work on older x86_64 CPUs such as the Core 2 Duo.

The MP4v2 library provides an API to create and modify mp4 files as defined by ISO-IEC:14496-1:2001 MPEG-4 Systems. This file format is derived from Apple's QuickTime file format that has been used as a multimedia file format in a variety of platforms and applications. It is a very powerful and extensible format that can accommodate practically any type of media.

This package provides a plugin for adding a gradient Source to OBS Studio.

libvpx is a codec for the VP8/VP9 video compression format.

SVT-AV1 is an AV1 codec implementation. The encoder is a work-in-progress, aiming to support video-on-demand and live streaming applications with high performance requirements. It mainly targets Intel-compatible CPUs (x86), but has limited support for other architectures.

Jellyfin MPV Shim is a cross-platform cast client for Jellyfin. It has support for various media files without transcoding.

GTK+ UVC Viewer (guvcview) is a graphical application to control a webcam accessible with Video4Linux (V4L2) and to capture videos and images. It provides control over precise settings of the webcam such as exposure, brightness, contrast, and frame rate.

This OBS plugin allows you to capture the screen on wlroots-based Wayland compositors.

get_iplayer lists, searches and records BBC iPlayer TV/Radio, BBC Podcast programmes. Other third-party plugins may be available. get_iplayer has three modes: recording a complete programme for later playback, streaming a programme directly to a playback application, such as mplayer; and as a Personal Video Recorder (PVR), subscribing to search terms and recording programmes automatically. It can also stream or record live BBC iPlayer output.

Celluloid is a simple GTK+ frontend for the mpv media player. It interacts with mpv via the client API exported by libmpv, allowing access to mpv's powerful playback capabilities.

Plugin for OBS Studio which is intended to allow users to apply their own shaders to OBS sources. This theoretically makes possible some simple effects like drop shadows that can be implemented strictly in shader code.

Libmms is a library for streaming media files using the mmst and mmsh protocols.

FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It includes the libavcodec audio/video codec library.

FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It includes the libavcodec audio/video codec library.

The mpvpaper package provides a wallpaper program for wlroots-based wayland compositors, allowing you to play videos as your wallpaper using mpv.

Peek makes it easy to create short screencasts of a screen area. It was built for the specific use case of recording screen areas, e.g. for easily showing UI features of your own apps or for showing a bug in bug reports. With Peek, you simply place the Peek window over the area you want to record and press "Record". Peek is optimized for generating animated GIFs, but you can also directly record to WebM or MP4 if you prefer.

MLT is a multimedia framework, designed and developed for television broadcasting. It provides a toolkit for broadcasters, video editors, media players, transcoders, web streamers and many more types of applications. The functionality of the system is provided via an assortment of ready to use tools, XML authoring components, and an extensible plug-in based API.

FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It includes the libavcodec audio/video codec library.

libx264 is an advanced encoding library for creating H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC) video streams.

dav1d is a new AV1 cross-platform decoder, and focused on speed and correctness.

rav1e is an AV1 video encoder. It is designed to eventually cover all use cases, though in its current form it is most suitable for cases where libaom (the reference encoder) is too slow.

Xvid is an MPEG-4 Part 2 Advanced Simple Profile (ASP) video codec library. It uses ASP features such as b-frames, global and quarter pixel motion compensation, lumi masking, trellis quantization, and H.263, MPEG and custom quantization matrices.

Motion is a program that monitors the video signal from one or more cameras and is able to detect if a significant part of the picture has changed. Or in other words, it can detect motion.
